District 13, City of Wildwood

Painters in the Village of Bradford, The Villages FL

Bradford homes went up around 2020 and 2021 at the southern end of the Chitty Chatty Preserve. The official home pages describe a mix of concrete block and frame construction, which shapes how we look after the exterior here.

Why does construction type matter for paint?

The Villages lists Bradford designer homes in both concrete block and frame construction. The two can age differently. Block walls tend to show fine cracks in the stucco skin, while frame-built walls are worth checking where trim, fascia and openings meet the wall, because that is where water finds its way in first.

We walk the whole house before pricing it, note which walls are which, and plan the prep around what we actually see instead of assuming every home on the street is built the same way.

What we do for Bradford homeowners

Designer homes, patio villas, courtyard villas and verandas all share one thing here: they are still young.

Softwash for preserve sides

Walls that face the preserve can stay damp and shaded. A gentle softwash lifts mildew without blasting new stucco.

Garage floors

A coated garage floor resists hot-tire marks and oil, and cleans with a mop.

Interior color

Trade builder-neutral walls for a palette you picked, room by room.

Stucco touch-ups

Hairline cracks patched and blended before any new coat goes on.

Color approval

Changing your Bradford color, step by step

District 13 has its own Architectural Review Committee. Here is how a color change usually goes.

  1. Start with what is allowed

    Bradford owners can usually repaint in the home’s existing color, or pick from the palette District 13 currently offers, with no review at all. We help you figure out which shades those are for your house.

  2. Apply for anything else

    Step outside those choices and the committee wants an Architectural Review Application first; Community Standards handles it (districtgov.org, (352) 751-3912). We sit down and fill out the form with you.

  3. Paint once it is cleared

    With the go-ahead in hand, the crew cleans the walls, fixes cracks, seals every joint and lays down two complete coats.

Where is the Village of Bradford?

Bradford is south of State Road 44 in District 13, in the City of Wildwood in Sumter County. It sits at the southern end of the Chitty Chatty Preserve, and the Chitty Chatty Bridge carries golf carts across SR 44 to the north side.

Are Bradford homes block or frame?

Both. Official Bradford designer home listings describe a mix of concrete block and frame construction, so we check each home’s walls before recommending prep.

What recreation is in Bradford?

The Bradford Recreation Area on Dray Drive has a neighborhood pool, shuffleboard, bocce and corn toss. The Rohan and Everglades recreation centers are nearby.

Do you need to be paid up front?

No. Payment comes only after you have looked over the work and are happy with it. On top of that, if the paint peels or chips within 7 years, the warranty covers it.
