Alamo Heights homes have personality. From the 1920s Tudor revivals on Patterson Avenue to the mid-century moderns near Olmos Basin and the custom-built estates in Terrell Hills, no two homes on the same block look alike. Painting them well requires a contractor who respects the architecture — not one who treats every home like a tract build.
Easy Peasy Painting has been repainting homes in San Antonio, TX since 2015. We're a locally-owned San Antonio painting company that takes care with historic homes, custom interiors, and the kind of meticulous trim work Alamo Heights properties deserve.
WHAT WE DO
Careful prep for older wood siding, stucco, and stone.
Walls, ceilings, custom millwork, built-ins, accent walls.
Kitchen and bathroom cabinet refresh.
Common in Alamo Heights' older homes.
Fast-turnaround work for homes going on the market.
Exterior accent work.
For homes built before 1978.
Including period-appropriate palettes for historic homes.
WHY EASY PEASY
A 1928 Tudor isn't a 2018 spec build. Older Alamo Heights homes have original wood siding that needs hand-scraping, plaster walls that hide surprises, custom millwork that can't be sprayed without care, and trim profiles that don't exist in any home center. We slow down for these jobs and we price them honestly.
Homes built before 1978 need extra care. We take extra care with older homes, prep them properly before painting, and walk you through the prep plan at the estimate. (If your painter doesn't talk about prep on a 1940s home, that's a red flag.)
This isn't a market that wants gray-everything. Alamo Heights homeowners often want classical palettes — warm whites, soft creams, period-appropriate greens, deep navy front doors, historic exterior tones that respect the home's era. We pull period-appropriate references when relevant, and we're happy to coordinate with your interior designer or color consultant if you have one.
Alamo Heights jobs typically take longer per square foot than Stone Oak or Schertz jobs because the homes are more complex, the trim is more detailed, and the prep matters more. We bid the time honestly and we don't cut corners to make up margin.
We park where we should, we don't blast music, we clean up daily, and we don't leave the job site looking like a construction zone. In a neighborhood as walkable and community-oriented as Alamo Heights, this matters.
OUR WORK
Every job we take is photographed and written up, so you can see the prep, the products and the finish before you hire us. Our newest write-up is a whole-home interior repaint in 78248, about 15 minutes from Alamo Heights: walls, ceilings, trim and doors, done in four days with the family living at home.
PRICING & SCOPE
Make up a big chunk of our Alamo Heights work. These jobs take longer per square foot because the prep matters. We hand-scrape failing paint, repair wood rot where we find it, prime properly with the right product for the substrate, and use durable topcoats. Most older-home exteriors in Alamo Heights run $6,500 to $18,000 depending on size, prep needs, trim complexity, and any restoration work required. Newer homes in Terrell Hills custom builds run closer to $5,000 to $12,000.
The most common interior project. The pattern: families remodeling a recently purchased older home, or longtime owners updating from beige-and-tan palettes to lighter neutrals and warmer whites. Full-home interior projects in Alamo Heights typically run $4,000 to $11,000 depending on square footage, trim work, and ceiling work.
Increasingly common as Alamo Heights kitchens get refreshed. Many older kitchens have solid-wood cabinets that are excellent candidates for refinishing rather than replacement — they're often higher quality than what's sold today. Cabinet projects typically run $3,500 to $7,500.
