You’re not looking for another contractor who treats your home like a quick job between bigger projects. You want someone who shows up when they say they will, does the work right the first time, and actually cares about the outcome.
That’s exactly what you get with MRH Pro Construction & Painting. We handle your exterior remodeling project from start to finish—siding that actually protects your home, windows that fit properly and seal correctly, stucco work that matches your existing texture and color perfectly.
No subcontractors. No surprises. Just our experienced 7-person crew working directly on your project until it’s done right. When we’re finished, your home looks better and performs better, and you can actually enjoy the results instead of worrying about callbacks and repairs.
We’ve been doing exterior remodeling in San Diego County for 16 years, and we recently made a smart business decision—we stopped subcontracting and started focusing entirely on direct work for homeowners like you.
What does that mean for you? It means when you hire MRH Pro Construction & Painting, you get our full attention. Our 7-person crew isn’t juggling your project with three others. We’re not rushing to finish so we can move on to the next subcontracting job.
We’re licensed (B general and C33), insured, and we know La Presa’s unique challenges. The climate here is tough on exterior materials—those temperature swings can crack stucco, and the sun fades siding faster than you’d expect. We’ve seen it all, and we know exactly how to build and install everything to last in this environment.
First, we come out and actually look at your project. Not a quick 10-minute estimate—we spend the time to understand what you’re trying to accomplish and what challenges your specific property presents. We’ll talk through your options and give you a realistic timeline and budget.
Once you decide to move forward, we handle the permits and paperwork. Yes, it’s a pain, but it’s also the law, and it protects you. We know exactly what La Presa requires and how to get things approved without delays.
Then our crew shows up and gets to work. We start each morning on time, clean up each evening, and keep you updated on progress. When we hit the inevitable surprise (because every home remodeling project has at least one), we talk to you about it immediately and give you options.
When we’re done, we walk through everything with you to make sure you’re completely satisfied. Your project isn’t finished until you’re happy with every detail.

Our bread and butter is exterior work—specifically siding, window replacement, and stucco. These aren’t side services for us; they’re what we do best and what brings in most of our revenue because we’re really good at them.
For siding, we work with materials that actually hold up in La Presa’s climate. Fiber cement that won’t warp in the heat, vinyl that won’t crack in temperature swings, and proper installation that prevents moisture problems before they start.
Window replacement means new construction windows, not retrofit. Retrofit windows are cheaper up front, but they leak more often and cause expensive problems later. We do it right the first time with proper flashing and moisture barriers.
Our stucco work focuses on matching existing textures and colors perfectly. We’ve fixed too many botched jobs where the repair work is obvious from the street. When we’re done with stucco repair or installation, you can’t tell where the old ends and the new begins.
Most exterior remodeling projects take 2-4 weeks, depending on the scope and size of your home. Siding replacement on an average La Presa home typically takes 1-2 weeks. Window replacement projects usually take 3-5 days for a whole house.
Stucco work varies the most because of drying time requirements. A full re-stucco job needs proper curing time between coats, so we’re looking at 2-3 weeks minimum. Weather can extend this—we won’t apply stucco in rain or extreme heat because it compromises the final result.
The permitting process adds time upfront. La Presa permit approval typically takes 2-3 weeks, which is why we start that process immediately after you sign the contract. We use that time for material ordering and crew scheduling so we’re ready to start as soon as permits are approved.
We stopped subcontracting and focus entirely on direct work for homeowners. This means when you hire us, you get our full attention and our own crew—not whoever happens to be available that week.
Most contractors in La Presa juggle multiple projects and rely heavily on subcontractors. That creates communication problems, quality control issues, and scheduling headaches for homeowners. Our 7-person crew works exclusively on your project until it’s completed to your satisfaction.
We also specialize in exterior work rather than trying to do everything. Siding, windows, and stucco are what we do best, and we’ve invested in the right tools, materials, and training to do them exceptionally well. You’re not paying for a generalist who’s okay at everything—you’re getting specialists who excel at exactly what your home needs.
Yes, we handle all permit applications and coordinate inspections. We know exactly what La Presa requires for different types of exterior work, and we have relationships with the local building department that help move things along smoothly.
For most exterior remodeling projects, you’ll need permits for electrical work (if we’re adding exterior outlets), structural changes (like window enlargements), and sometimes for siding replacement depending on the extent of the work. We determine what’s required during our initial consultation and factor permit costs and timelines into your project estimate.
We also coordinate all required inspections and make sure everything passes the first time. If an inspector finds something that needs adjustment, we fix it immediately at no additional cost to you. The permit process might seem like a hassle, but it protects your investment and ensures everything is done to code.
La Presa’s semi-arid climate with temperature swings requires materials that can handle expansion and contraction without cracking or warping. For siding, we recommend fiber cement or high-quality vinyl. Both resist moisture, won’t warp in heat, and maintain their appearance for decades.
For windows, we use new construction windows with proper flashing and moisture barriers. The temperature variations here cause a lot of expansion and contraction, so proper installation is critical to prevent leaks and air infiltration.
Stucco needs special attention in this climate. We use elastomeric coatings that flex with temperature changes and help prevent cracking. The coating also reflects heat, which keeps your home cooler and reduces energy costs. Traditional stucco without proper coating will crack within a few years in La Presa’s climate, leading to expensive repairs and potential moisture problems.
We build a realistic contingency into every estimate because exterior remodeling almost always reveals something unexpected. When we remove old siding, we might find water damage that needs repair. When we take out old windows, we sometimes discover framing issues that must be addressed.
The key is communication. When we find something unexpected, we stop work and call you immediately. We explain what we found, why it needs to be addressed, and give you options with clear pricing. You never get surprised with a bill at the end of the project.
We also lock in material costs upfront whenever possible. Lumber and other building materials can fluctuate significantly, but we absorb those increases rather than passing them on to you. Our goal is keeping your project on budget while delivering the quality results you expect. Most cost overruns happen because contractors don’t communicate properly or try to cut corners on the estimate—we avoid both problems with upfront honesty and detailed planning.
We provide a comprehensive warranty on all our exterior remodeling work. Labor is warranted for one full year, and we’ll return to fix any issues that arise from our installation at no charge. Materials carry manufacturer warranties that we help you navigate if problems develop.
For siding, windows, and stucco, we also do a 30-day follow-up inspection to make sure everything is performing as expected. La Presa’s climate can reveal installation issues quickly, so we prefer to catch and fix anything before it becomes a bigger problem.
We’re also licensed and insured, which protects you if something goes wrong during the project. Our C33 painting contractor license and B general contractor license are current and in good standing. We carry liability insurance and workers compensation coverage, so you’re protected if someone gets injured on your property or if we accidentally damage something during the work.
