"I apologize for taking so long to write this review.  I should have written it just after the work was done last summer.  I was so pleased with the work done by North Liberty Painters, whom I found on Angie's List, that I felt I should write a review to confirm the wonderful reviews I had read about them before choosing them to paint our house.  I have never written a review for anyone before, and do so now because of how wonderful it was to work with everyone at North Liberty Painters.  <br /> From the first visit to our home when Jeri Henderson, the owner of the company, came out to assess the house and give me a quote, throughout the entire process, everything went so smoothly, and the work was done so well.  Jeri was very attentive to details, and very responsive to any communications I sent to her.  Her crew are amazing!  I have only good things to say about all of them:  professional, polite, respectful, helpful, quiet workers (they use headphones while they work so any music or radio programs they are listening to while they work are not heard by others ~ great idea!), attentive to detail, on time, kept me informed and updated, responsive to questions/requests I had concerning the job, quality workmanship.  I couldn't be more pleased with them. I would definitely use them again and would highly recommend them to others.  They do both exterior and interior work, and I will likely be contacting them to do some interior painting for us this spring.  <br /> Thank you Jeri, Brad, Tony, and Zach (the main people who came to the house), and the others who came once or twice to work.  I appreciate all of you!  It was delightful working with you.  <br />"

"We used these guys to stain our screen porch and deck for us. The job required scaffolding for the exterior of the porch, and would not be easy to accomplish as a do-it-yourself job. The labor cost is fairly high for what is fairly straightforward, so I would recommend if you have a complex deck system (as I did), with a lot of elevation and difficult to reach places. However, for less complex decks to be stained, it might be worthwhile to simply have them power wash the deck, and do the staining yourself. The owner was helpful and had very good communication via email, which is surprisingly rare in many other home-related contractors. <br />"

"We had it on a large four seasons which had two levels and also needed some work done in the house as far as painting and ceiling being painted. They did a lot of the work in the evening and on the weekends because they had they jobs also. But they were very efficient and did a great job. I would definitely hire them again. And their prices were very reasonable."

"Eric was referred to me by Kevin with One Call Home Repair who was no longer in the business.  I caleld Eric and he got back to me promptly & scheduled a time about 2 weeks out, that fit in my schedule.  He and his coworker came out a few minutes early and did a fast and excellent job of repairing the cat fence that is attached to the top of my chain link fence around my large back yard.  They clamped 15-20 brackets onto my cat fence, cut out the old twist ties and added zip ties on all the new brackets.   <br /> They also repaired the back of my chain link fence--reattaching metal wires, adding stakes at the bottom, and zip tying them to the fence.   <br /> Plus, they diagnosed a lighted deer holiday decorating, that only was only half-lit.  I thought the lighting wires had been cut, but they were actually ties that looked liked wires.  They showed me the approximate location of the burned out LED light. <br /> They wrote me an itemized invoice for the 2 hours of work.  They were professional, courteous, and easy to work with--willing to do exactly what I wished regarding the repairs.  I'd definitely call them again and would recommend them to my friends. <br />"

"Mike came within 1 - 2 days after my call to give me an estimate. I started out with just one area to be painted - the stairwell area. The price was so reasonable that I had him give me an estimate on the spare bedroom too. He was able to begin the job the following week. After the guys were here doing the areas I'd contracted with them for, I was able to add to the job while they were here (I added to the job on the 1st day they were here), which was nice - rather than having to have them come out a second time. I loved these guys! I'm particular about my woodwork - I don't want paint on it! They have a special technique for not getting paint on the woodwork. They make any repairs needed to the walls prior to painting - not just filling nail holes. They even repaired and painted a wall in my living room for me (same paint already being used). My job ran over the course of two days. Two painters each day - the same painters both days! They were very nice. They took the time to do the job right! I will request the same guys for any future work. While they were here we discussed other jobs I had that I will be using them for in the future. This company, and these two guys in particular were the best. I have found my painters. No need to look any further!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Atkins, IA

Painting vinyl siding is a budget-friendly way to revive curb appeal without paying for new panels. As long as the boards aren’t warped, cracked, or leaking, a coat of high-quality acrylic paint can buy you another five to 10 years before replacement. 

Stick to lighter shades so the siding doesn’t soak up excess heat, and prep the surface well for the paint to bond. If you’re seeing rot or moisture damage, skip the paint and plan for new siding instead.

High-quality acrylic paint is recommended for vinyl siding. Acrylic paint adheres firmly to vinyl surfaces and resists peeling and fading, providing a sleek and long-lasting finish. Ensure the siding is thoroughly cleaned and prepared for optimal results. Your exterior painting pro has the expertise to properly prepare your siding’s surface to ensure proper adhesion.

Priming is not required if the vinyl siding remains in good condition and is properly cleaned. However, if the original color is severely faded or the panels have become porous, priming becomes essential. Priming provides a smooth, even base that improves paint adhesion and enhances durability, ensuring the acrylic finish adheres properly and lasts longer.

A paint sprayer is the quickest, most consistent way to coat vinyl siding. The fine mist reaches grooves a roller can miss and lays down an even layer in a fraction of the time. You’ll still need a brush for tight corners, but a sprayer slashes labor hours and reduces lap marks. 

If you’re renting equipment, ask the supplier for a tip size made for exterior acrylics so the paint atomizes correctly and sticks to the siding.

Painted vinyl siding lasts between five and 10 years. The durability depends on the quality of the surface preparation and the local climate conditions. When the siding is thoroughly cleaned and prepped, and high-quality acrylic paint is used, the finish endures longer. In hotter regions, the lifespan may be closer to five years, while cooler climates help extend it.
