Rancho Santa Margarita, California
Inland heat, tile roofs, tight HOAs.
Rancho Santa Margarita was built from the late 1980s onward as a planned community, so the housing is consistent: stucco bodies, tile roofs, and an association governing what you are allowed to paint. It also sits further inland, and the summer heat here is noticeably harder on exteriors than at the coast.
Local considerations
RSM associations generally hold you to an approved scheme. We pull the current list, prepare the submittal and paint to what was approved.
Inland temperature swings open stucco hairlines and pull caulk joints apart. Those get addressed before coating, or the new paint just telegraphs the same cracks.
These two surfaces fade first in RSM almost without exception. They often need an extra coat to match the rest of the house properly.
If your street isn't listed, we almost certainly still work there — give us a call and we'll confirm.
