"As far as I'm concerned, this project was a success. I can't say enough about how pleased I am with the work of Valentine Painting. Jim toured my property with me and as I pointed out my requirements, he provided recommendations, and eventually quoted a fair price. They painted the exterior of my home, as well as my bar-b-que grill. His team exceeded my expectations, and I highly recommend them to anyone seeking to start a project."

"STRAIGHT EDGE PAINTING - CAN'T SAY ENOUGH POSITIVE THINGS We recently engaged Straight Edge Painting owned by Wes Reese to paint the entire interior of our house, including all the ceilings and wood trim work. Until now I doubted anyone could paint to my own expectations.. Wes sent in a team of the most professional, careful, pleasant, respectful and well-trained painters you could ever ask for. They start by covering all the floors by taping down heavy-duty brown kraft paper. Then they patch every imperfection in the ceiling and walls that they find. They even shine flashlights on the ceiling and walls to find these imperfections. Then they scrub down the walls with a giant dry mop-head. Next, they clean the baseboard moldings with a brush. Then, they start by priming all the surfaces first. Then they apply 2 coats of the highest quality paint. Wes is always accessible. They are fully insured and offer a very strong warranty. I COULD NOT IMAGINE THAT YOU CAN FIND A BETTER PAINTER."

"We hired Rodrigo to paint the exterior of our home and to replace some of the siding boards. The siding was replaced by a sub-contractor who was very easy to work with and who did an excellent job. Rodrigo and his crew also did an excellent job. On the house, the trim and shutters remained the same colors while the house went a shade darker. From the beginning, we knew it would take two coats to adequately cover the old paint. The crew of five worked very diligently and it was easy to see how they enjoyed painting and being with each other. The house looks great due to their fine attention to details. In both jobs, the siding and the painting, neither crew left clutter behind. The painting took three days and each night the drop cloths were folded and the ladders were stored out of harms way. Due to the cool nights, the paint was stored inside of the garage. I would highly recommend Rodrigo and his company for painting and will have them back for additional projects."

Customers say: True professional

"I received four quotes to paint the exterior trim of our home. NJM's quote was literally half the price of the highest quote, and one of them said it was too cold to paint outside in December and said we should wait until March when the weather got warmer. NJM didn't have a problem with the cold weather and used Latitude paint. We picked out the color and they purchased the paint for almost half the price it would have cost us to buy it ourselves. NJM were on time, stayed late and got the exterior of a 3500 sq foot home painted in less than a week. The detail they put into the project was amazing. They pressure washed the trim, dormers and caulked every issue they found. Very flexible, good communication and great customer service. The house looks wonderful and we couldn't be happier with the result."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Charlotte, NC

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.
