"HPO Painting is an exceptional company. Owner and Crew are very knowledgeable, complete Quality work. Having double peaks and two story entrance, Eric and team were able to repair damaged and cracked drywall up so high. Then, painting all these difficult places on the ceiling and walls. What I appreciated the most was that they repaired and painted the Kitchen first, making it useable within the first day. They protected all my hardwood and carpets, cleaned up each day making the home so useable each evening. HPO Painting did a lot of great work, painting and carpentry on the exterior of our home in the Summer, that we couldn’t wait for their work ethic and talent be utilized again on the interior of our home in December. We are so happy with HPO, that we would recommend them to everyone!"

"Had MQ Painting paint the exterior of my house and garage and could not be happier. Did everything the right way! First came and power washed everything a few days before, then on first day of painting removed all old caulk and re-caulked, plus filled any holes. Gave everything 2 coats and on one part that was stain actually gave 3 coats. Original quote did not include foundation, soffit, gutters, front and rear stairs but Jose added those in at a reasonable price, so had those done too. Also painted chimney at no extra charge, On top of all this they completed the job in 2 days. Could tell from first time I had Jose come out to give me a quote he was very knowledgeable and passionate about his business and painting, which I really liked. I would not hesitate to recommend MQ Painting to anybody. I guarantee you will be happy with the quality of work and price you'll receive from MQ Painting."

"I interviewed 4 painting contractors to paint my 1700 sq. ft. basement. The final interview was from a Home Advisors reference: "Sodat De la Paz", out of Elgin, Illinois. After reading his reviews and meeting him in person, I was very impressed, and hired him with confidence. It was easy to see that he was a dedicated professional with a good amount of experience and a warm and friendly personality. It was the best decision I made. Not only was Sodat's quote well within the cost of the other bids, but he completed the work (two primer coats and two finished coats of three different colored paints for all walls, ceiling, and soffits) in just over two full days (as quoted). He is also committed to his word as much as his craft. He arrived on site every day as scheduled and worked a full 8 to 10hr. day, and his work is exceptional. I couldn't be more pleased with the final outcome. It looks beautiful. He is indeed a perfectionist in his craft. So, if you have a new painting project or are in need of some drywall repair work, give â Sodat De la Paz's Painting Service" a call. You won't be sorry. I only wish that Home Advisors rating system was higher than just 5 out of 5. I rated my experience using â Sodat De la Paz's Painting Serviceâ a full 5 out of 5. Somehow that seems inadequate.

"We contacted Preemo Painting in early fall of 2020. We received a very reasonable estimate, and were told that the work could not be done before winter, but they would do some temporary fixes to protect our home. Also, they guarantee all work as long as you stick to a 5 year repaint schedule. Preemo started the work on March 28th and finished on April 3rd. All of the people who worked at our home were very considerate of us working inside our home, and they were all very knowledgeable and professional. The work they did was fantastic, and we are extremely happy with the results. Every area was repaired, including newly discovered problems we did not know about in the fall. The color was matched perfectly, and everything looks great. We wholeheartedly recommend Preemo Painting, and certainly plan on using them again in 5 years."

"A really great experience - our new go-to painter! We got a recommendation for this contractor at our local paint store because we were looking for specific expertise with masonry paint and limewash. The owner was responsive, solutions-driven, reasonable and timely. His whole team was professional - and we really appreciated their high quality work product and attention to detail. The whole team delivered exactly what we wanted…..our home looks so beautiful now!"

"Steadfast just finished painting most of the interior of our home and it is beautiful! From the start, Anthony and our team - Nick, Natalie and Justin - were professional, accommodating, tidy, punctual and personable - and their attention to detail is amazing. While they were removing an outdated border print running through the living/dining rooms, Anthony mentioned that he also does crown moldings and we accepted his very reasonable bid. The gleaming white moldings set off the new soft gray paint and absolutely transform our home. This was our second painting experience with Steadfast. We hired them a few years ago to paint the entire exterior of our house - which included some extensive prep work. They were incredibly swift, and the end result was (and continues to be) fantastic. We were sold on Steadfast back then, and this new job reaffirmed why they are our go-to for any paint jobs we have. We're grateful!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Barrington, IL

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.
