"I didn’t know if I was going to leave a review, but I feel at least one thing is noteworthy. At the beginning, John was very understanding of my situation, and willing to compromise and find solutions. Once he’d finished and I had a chance to inspect everything more closely, it was clear there were parts of his work. I was extremely unhappy with and areas that I wish he had been much more upfront on. I texted him to let him know what I was unhappy with, and time past. When he called me back, he was exceedingly humble, willing to compromise, and genuinely apologetic for leaving me unsatisfied. And I got the strong sense that he actually cared, and was not simply trying to save a review. so while he is not a perfection painter, and I wish he had been upfront about that beforehand, he is humble, has integrity, and is willing to accept feedback, whether positive or negative. So if character matters to you above all else, he’s the man for the job."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Dover, OH

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.
