"We've used Dave Docherty Painters multiple times and also referred them to friends and family. They did an amazing exterior paint job on our home. We were so happy with their work and professionalism, that we called them again to paint our interior home. The interior project was done 2 week before Christmas which some people thought we were crazy to have done at that time. However, we had full trust and confidence with Dave and his team. They painted away even with our Christmas decorations up. They worked their magic and we enjoyed newly beautifully painted home for the holidays."

"It all went amazingly. First, Francisco got back to me very quickly and came to give a bid very quickly. His price was very competitive and of the several bids we got he was the only one who was able and willing to do everything we needed without hemming and hawing about it. (Patching holes and doing some repair on a doorframe that rotted.) That was all included in the price. His guys were great. Basically once I said yes and paid the deposit, I didn’t have to do or think about anything. Even when the weather was a bit crazy Francisco was very communicative about when they’d be back, and they were. I didn’t remember if we had discussed a few windows, and some areas that needed extra attention after the project was done. They were dealt with asap, at no extra charge. He gave me tips on keeping it nice, and gave some extra paint for when the kids (and probably me) inevitably mess up the brand new paint. I also like that he and his wife both have small businesses in philly. I would highly recommend New Era Pro for exterior painting projects. I would use them again for sure, but because of the quality products and quality of work, hopefully I won’t have to!"

"Dave McEvoy and his team took on the job of painting the entire interior of our home including our kitchen cabinets. From the consultation to the end result, we were so impressed with the professionalism, workmanship, and attention to detail. The work that was done is in one word, impeccable. Our home was transformed into a light, bright, and airy space. We could not have achieved the look we were hoping for without Daveâ s guidance and creativity. The project was done during the pandemic. Dave McEvoy and his team followed safety precautions and sanitized the common areas before they left each day. This was incredibly helpful and reassuring as we have a 15-month-old daughter that touches everything! I would without a doubt recommend Dave McEvoy Painting a thousand times over."

"If you want a lifetime roof done right with no worries for the rest of your life, then go with Paddy's. Their Timberline HD lifetime roof system is the best in the industry. Charlie was great. He called after the roof was complete to assure me that if I ever had a problem with the roof, to give Paddy's a call. The install took 1.5 days and the cleanup was very thorough. Its all about the details and Paddy's delivered the details with great customer service. I could not be happier with the process and the results. If you don't go with Paddy's, you're not getting the best value for your dollar, IMO. Paddy's will be my go-to source for any future needs. Thanks Paddy's."

"Nick and his righthand man Brett did an outstanding job in painting our home, full interior and small outside work. I had used Van Go! 4 years ago, to paint a small deck. After watching the care and time they put into that assignment I knew when it came time to paint my house they would do so. Nick guided us through paint color selection and we tried a half a dozen colors before choosing one. The prep work is outstanding! They sand the walls where needed with little or no dust (combintation sander and vacuum) and each night, for 12 nights, they clean up and put the house back in order. If you want a professional paint job completed there is no need to look anywhere but Van Go!. Nick has one job left, painting the kitchen cabinets; a spring time event. Looking forward to seeing him again."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Chester, PA

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.
