Took a lot of pride in their jobs. Would recommend this company to anyone looking for painters. Thanks again."

"Quick response for quote for painting one side of barn and started job the next day. We were not happy with the paint job as there was overspray on concrete, paint on areas that were not being painted and paint on pool table that was stored inside barn. We contacted Curtis and they returned twice to address the problems. I am satisfied with the fix but disappointed that more care wasnt taken initially to protect other exposures. Our barn is red with white trim but the side painted ended up being completely red. My husband met Curtis at Lowe?s to purchase the paint and asked about white paint but Curtis said there wasn?t any white and my husband assumed that meant the existing white trim would remain. We are new to hiring workers for projects at our home so we are chalking this up as a learning experience. My suggestion is that you be very specific about what you want painted including colors, what is included in the quote and how other exposures will be protected "

"Steve did a great job of delivering a perfect even finish on the woodwork, which was our key concern as there were large flat areas that would show any brush/spray strokes or un-evenness.  He had to battle some humidity conditions due to needing to have the A/C off during spraying and the time of year, but was very professional in communicating and problem-solving.  He and his crew were also very considerate of the new hardwood floors and having children living in the house during the project and did a good job of sealing off the room and cleaning up after themselves.  He even was flexible about coming back to touch up some minor flaws that we noticed. <br />"

"Eric (owner) and Russ were great!  Eric gave me a quote and generally seemed interested in the job and me as well.  I received quotes from other companies, and they treated me like a number and did not seem interested in even doing the work.  Ultimately, Eric and Russ were able to complete the work on time and it looked great.  The pricing was within reason based on what was completed and the quality of work. <br /> I would recommend to anybody looking to finish their basement or remodel home! <br /> I feel bad for the delay in this review, as I stopped my Angie's List subscription and forgot to leave a positive review. <br /> <br /> <br />"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Dowagiac, MI

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.
