"Walter came promptly and gave us an estimate. After giving him the job, he and his crew were very prompt. They powered washed the two story house and garage in one day; came back the next and began painting. Every surface was washed and painted with two coats of Duration paint. The crew was polite and cheerful. They worked every day and got the whole job done in about a week. We are extremely pleased with the way our house and garage look. Walter repaired damaged wood, caulked where needed etc. and applied two coats of paint. The crew were very professional and pleasant. They cleaned up every day. When the job was complete, there were no paint drips or any debris anywhere. We are definitely going to hire Walter again."

"We were very pleased with the jobs performed. The crew power washed, rolled and brushed our exterior brick home, as well as the trim and shutters. The job was expected to take 7-10 days, and everything was completed within 10 days. The owner was very informative and easy to work with. When a change was requested with our trim and shutter colors, he made a suggestion as to one of the changes we discussed, and we were very pleased that we went with his suggestion. The end product turned out even better than expected. Also, the price was very reasonable. I would highly recommend W.W. MV & Son Painting."

"We recently hired Donnie and his crew to paint the interior of our home, and we couldn't be more pleased with the results. They showed up on time every day, communicated well and respected our home. The job itself was flawless with clean lines and even coats. Their pricing was competitive, and we felt we received great value for the quality of work provided. We definitely recommend F&D Painting."

"Jason and his team of two arrived on time and worked quickly and efficiently.  Powerwashing was completed  in just a couple of hours. with great care taken to make sure landscaping was not damaged.  And THEY PROVIDE THE WATER! They removed and washed all furniture from the porches (3) as well. The difference in appearance is amazing; I really didn't think some of the discoloration on gutters, etc. could be removed, but they did it. Jason did a 'walk around' after finishing to make sure I was satisfied. The painters came a couple of days later and their work was excellent as well. Exterior doors were repaired and painted and the porch looks as good as new. All in two days! Steve and his team were honest in their advice and didn't recommend unnecessary work to increase the cost as some companies have done in the past.  I asked that an extra coat of paint be added to the porch rails as well as another coat of sealant on the walk, and this was done without complaint.  Steve stopped by twice after the job to make sure all was completed as promised. Absolutely no complaints. This is a great company to work with and I highly recommend them for powerwashing and interior/exterior painting.

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Charlottesville, VA

For aluminum siding, go with a high-quality 100% acrylic exterior paint. Start with an oil-based primer to ensure the finish adheres and shields the metal from oxidation and moisture. The primer seals the surface and provides the acrylic with a surface to grip. Skip latex primers or paints—their reaction with aluminum can trap bubbles and cause early peeling.

How long will painted aluminum siding last?

A well-done paint job on aluminum siding can last around 15 years, making the upfront effort worthwhile. Longevity hinges on solid prep: thoroughly cleaning the surface to remove chalky residue, dirt, and mildew so the new paint can adhere properly. It’s also important to paint when temperatures are between 50°F and 80°F, as extreme heat or cold can affect drying and adhesion. Steer clear of rainy days—moisture under the paint weakens adhesion and speeds up peeling or fading, which can significantly shorten the lifespan of your fresh coat.

Plan on repainting when the finish starts fading or leaves a chalky, white residue on your hand. Check the siding each year; if there’s a powdery residue on your palm, it indicates oxidation is underway on your siding. A fresh coat of paint stops peeling before it starts, boosts curb appeal, and keeps the metal protected.

Spray painting aluminum siding offers significant benefits compared to other application styles. Spray painting delivers even coverage, rapid application, and enhanced adhesion compared to traditional painting methods. This technique ensures every surface is evenly coated, minimizes labor time, and provides a sleek, professional finish that withstands weather and oxidation for lasting results.

The return on investment for aluminum siding is 70%. For example, a $10,000 aluminum siding installation will add $7,000 to your home’s resale value. Regional housing markets, the quality of siding materials, and ongoing upkeep—including repainting and repairs—influence final ROI. Investing in professional installation and regular maintenance ensures you recoup a significant portion of your siding costs when it’s time to sell.

Several materials can replace aluminum siding, each offering unique trade-offs. Vinyl siding requires minimal upkeep and resists fading, lasting up to 30 years. Wood siding provides classic warmth but demands regular painting or sealing. Fiber cement and composite siding offer exceptional durability and design flexibility, requiring minimal maintenance. Brick veneer and stucco create premium, long-lasting exteriors, but they come with higher upfront costs and increased installation complexity.
