"Great. Contact was made with the owner and they were able to fit us in the following day. They asked that we have paint here and we went and bought the paint so when they arrived they were able to get right to work. They completed three rooms in incredible timing and this is taping, filling, sanding, trimming, and two coats in 6 1/2 hours. Very considerate and professional. Would definately recommend them to others."

"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."

"Scott personally visited to view and give estimate. At a later date a crew of three men pressure washed the deck. Debris and chips flew everywhere, but they had covered the plants to protect them, and when they were done they hosed off the siding. They even helped move some of the heavier items off the deck before starting. They were careful and professional. The date for staining had to be rescheduled a couple of times due to rainy weather and work schedules. A crew of four arrived and in one afternoon, did some additional sanding and wood prep, filled in a couple of small holes (at no extra charge), helped move the furniture, and applied two coats of stain. They were friendly and answered our questions. Obviously they were experienced because they worked well together. Two things come to mind with this job. First, on the day of staining, they used an electronic moisture meter to verify that the wood was sufficiently dry to apply the coatings. Second, where the deck rails meet the house at two locations, there was not a single drop or smear of stain on the vinyl siding. Very impressive! When they were gone, there was no sign they had been there, except for a clean, fresh, new-looking deck."

"I previously had company remove wallpaper and they caused a lot of needed repairs. Kozlovich Painting repaired all of the damages from the previous contractor and completed all of the interior painting. Ed, the owner, was here for the work and kept in great communication. He was very easy to reach with any questions or concerns and even followed up all of the work was complete. They job took about a week because the rooms were large. They were wonderful and they were an outstanding company. I have no troubles with any of the work that they did."

"Fantastic company to work with.  Eric provided us with the initial quote, and although we made some modifications to the project along the way, they stayed right on budget and on schedule.  The crew was very respectful of our home, Tom and Dan were especially awesome.  Some very talented folks.  Built a huge custom built-in cabinet (11' long) to accommodate our 60" TV and all other entertainment gear as well as storage.  Completely transformed our basement from a cold unusable space to a warm inviting room that we now use everyday. Everyone who comes in our basement is very impressed with HRN's work.  We will definitely work with them again. <br />"

"During the first visit the crew found that the set of joints were frozen. Replacements were ordered and installed a week later. They also malfunctioned and a newly designed set were ordered. A week or so later these were installed, then the crew realized the extension arms were faulty when they were first installed so a new set was ordered and finally installed. Different crews arrived to work on these four installations over a two month period starting in late August during the summer of 2017. They were last here in late October when one crew person said he’d try to find another part for one last task we’d requested. Per his request I called him twice during the following three weeks to ask if he’d located the part in question. I’ve heard no reply since. Therefore, we have decided to forgo the last requested job we wanted done. Getting a phone call returned has been the most frustrating part of this latest job by Weather Armor. As of late November the job is still not finished. We originally paid extra money to have a wind sensor installed that retracts the awning when winds blows too hard. They took it off the awning arm when they installed the new arms. It is on the window sill not reinstalled."

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.
