All work was done at a high level of quality and in a timely manner. Communication for planning each of the tasks easy and reliable. Contractor arrived on time. I highly recommend for power washing and paint jobs."

"The supervisor who oversees his work crew is very nice. He will listen to your concerns. The workers he has with his painting crew are not detailed oriented. There were several times I had to contact the supervisor to come back and correct the mistakes his crew workers did when painting my home. I paid a lot of money on the painting of my home, and I shouldn't have to check their work after they said they were finished. The little things like leaving gray paint on a white door, I don't understand why they would not check their work before stating that they were finished. I would not recommend them if you're looking for high quality work without any mistakes."

"Amilcar and his team at Shalom Home Solutions did fantastic work on my townhouse. They refinished the floors, painted all the walls, and did many odds-and-ends projects that all came out wonderfully. Shalom Home Solutions staff are extremely responsive, hard-working, and great to work with. Any time we had questions or needed something fixed, I could text Amilcar is he would provide assistance. I recommend reaching out with any home repair you may need because they do great work at a very fair price."

"FABULOUS!!! We had a very tight timeline between taking possession of the house and moving in. Jaime did a wonderful job painting 6 rooms and all the baseboards/molding/mantles in our historic home. He finished the job right on time at the cost he estimated. Best experience I have ever had with home improvement work! I’ve already booked him to return in March and do the exterior of our house."

"Despite it being asbestos siding the work was completed as requested. The siding was green with algae/mold and now it's white again. The technician was very friendly and courteous and understanding. Very professional.

"It was the smoothest paint job that I have ever experienced and will  no doubt recommend Robert and his crew whenever the opportunity arises. I plan to have my cabinets redone and the basement painted and will use Competitive Painters."

"I hired this company based on reviews from Angie's list.  My experience was a bit different than the A + rating they had.  The answered my call for a quote and arrived on time.  The communicated in Spanish about everything.  We all walked the house together and I pointed out everything that needed painting.  We had a discussion about the master bath, the last words I heard George senior tell me was "we can fix this".  They quoted me a price of $3400.00 and said if I got everything done at once, he would take $200.00 off.  I didn't get other quotes because I just moved in and time was a factor, so I can't really comment on price.  During the week, they dropped of a large paint sample thing to make may choices from.  They arrived early to start the two-day job, a Friday and a Saturday.  They finished the job on Saturday, as promised.  My master bath was not painted, the wood on the steps was not painted, they removed all the drapery hardware and it was tossed out apparently, they took a blind down in the master bedroom and I had to remind many times for them to fix it, they did with crazy glue.  The walls and ceiling are beautiful but the trim is horrible.  I am still painting over spots that were missed or the paint was wiped off when they cleaned the floors.  There was a quarter sized drop of paint on my maple dining room table.  There was a large spot of white trim paint on the colored wall in the hall, but worst of all I continue to clean small spots and areas where there is white paint on the oak floors. They did do me one favor and lift a TV back up above the fireplace that had been taken down for painting. They did leave all the extra paint in the basement, one bucket not closed and has a paint roller floating in it.  The worst thing was them teasing my dogs and getting them agitated and pushing each other towards them and laughing.  Overall, I don't think I had an "A" experience.  Unfortunately I would not recommend them or use them again.

"The crew arrived on time and got straight to work. They prepared the area with drop clothes, filled all the holes, repaired the drywall areas, caulked the seams and moulding and did a very good job on all. Then they painted the entire basement, walls and ceilings. We could not be happier with the results, and we would hire them again in the future."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Dunkirk, MD

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.
