"We are so pleased with our choice to use Lenzen. They gave a very professional image talking to Shaun about the project, which included the shed and well house as well as our house. Then, when the windy season finally finished, they started work. Everything was expertly handled by Kal, our man on the job. He discussed everything he was doing and why. He obviously has done this professionally for a long time. When the job was done, Shaun repeatedly told us that if we found anything amiss, let him or Rex know and it would be handled. A very professional company and job done. We WILL use them again."

"I was very pleased with the work and professionalism of Peter and is crew. Peter started the project on time and finished when he said they would. He and crew were very respectful of me and my belongings. They covered everything to protect from paint and dust. I especially liked that the floors were covered in paper and taped down, instead of drop cloths which are a tripping hazard. I trusted Excel Pro Painters and felt safe with them or when I had to leave. I would highly recommend Peter and his company, Mary, Kennebunk"

"Jack and his team made a reasonable bid for my small kitchen project in the West End of Portland. It was an unusual project in that we only had 1 month to complete the work. Jack delivered the work on time and the work is of high quality. As most projects go we had some small unexpected issues, but Jack communicated well and was able to navigate them and still the project on time. I would highly recommend him and his team for your home renovation projects!"

"The difficult, complicated job went fantastically well. Joe Hagget was a great person with which to work. His crew was careful, friendly, thorough. Lots of clean up was done every night. They listened to my requests (and changes of mind) all through the huge project. I simply could not have had a better contractor or result!"

"I hired Jev Jesjunins as general contractor/project manager to renovate and rebuild a mid-1950’s ranch home in Portland which had not been updated since initial construction. During the process we discovered many unanticipated problems from leaking pipes and leaking basement walls to seemingly unending roadblocks with the City's building department. All issues were resolved in a highly professional and efficient manner. In addition to managing the project and working with subcontractors, Jev’s company was directly involved in rough and finished carpentry, sheetrock hanging/finishing, windows/doors installation, insulation, building the garage and mudroom, front porch, and back deck. His company also handled gutters installation; interior and exterior painting and various handyman projects. Jev was also a great partner in questions of design. I would like to emphasize the great result of my new three bathrooms (there was originally only one). They are pieces of art. Jev's crew which includes a designer, plumbers, electricians, cabinet makers, and tile installers created outstanding looking bathrooms with lots of unique fixtures - steam/shower cabin, jacuzzi, heated floors, smart toilets, unique selection of floor and wall tiles, closets, and shelving."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Durham, ME

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.
