"The Santiago team showed up on time and proceeded in covering the walls and flooring with protective sheeting, which was a plus...no dust. The ceilings needed repair, nail pops throughout and some retaping in the great room. Lasers were used to position the taping, which turned out perfectly. There were a couple of spots that were overlooked, but were promptly addressed. All in all, we are very satisfied with Santiago Home Improvements and their professionalism."

"I have work with Susan on multiple projects for 10 years now and I couldn't be happier with her and her crew. This year I asked them to replace nearly all the windows on the house. Susan made great recommendation and picked out the windows, so I didn't have to do a lot of shopping around. They showed up on time and cleaned up after the work. The crew members are trust-worthy which is great for a busy professional like myself. I left the house to them in the morning and went on with my day. They locked it up at the end of the day, cleaned up construction related mess so when I got home it was as if nothing had happened, except for all the brand new windows on the wall!!! There were some minor issues with a few windows, but when I pointed them out, they fixed them right away. House repair and remodeling could be very stressful but they really made it easy, from the initial consultation to the work completion, I never have to worry about a thing, that's why I alway go with them."

We were established in 2006 through a lot of sweat, tears and 80-hour work weeks, like most small businesses. I left my cushy upper management job in corporate to take over the great business my wife had started. She had decided to make our home a happier place by learning to paint faux finishes through our home like marbled ceilings and a brick painted patio. Then the neighbors wanted them, their friends and so forth. The name "Express Yourself Paint" came from customer's expressing their unique character through faux finishes. We started out in an eight-foot utility trailer with the forty-foot ladders hanging out to infinity with red flags tied to them and a used spray gun. We looked more like the Red Neck Painters of Raleigh. Thanks to all those trusting souls who allowed us to paint for them in those early days! We came from humble beginnings, but we wanted to create a different kind of painting company. A company that is high performance, uses modern technology for communicating and scheduling making for a more satisfied customer experience while still applying paint the old fashion way...brushes, rollers and sprayers. Our desire to be different has resulted in us becoming the largest and most successful repaint company in the Triangle. All that said, we still trip over our own feet sometimes and as of yet have not discovered how to be perfect. Give us a try and we will most definitely put our best foot forward for you. We can't leave the light on for you because we are at your home painting, but we will definitely bring all the paint and the fixings. Our sincere wish for you is to experience, "The Power of Paint!"

"Looked great and team was very friendly and were good workers. However, deck stain lasted less than 2 years before needing a refresh of the paint job."

With over 25 years of experience we provide quality service in painting, pressure washing, and handyman services. Thank you for your consideration.

"We had previously hired Paz Painting to remove popcorn from the ceilings in 2 rooms and hired his crew again to do the same in our dining and living rooms, an entryway and the upstairs stairwell ceiling. They also painted several rooms. They did a great job in both regards and did a nice job of cleaning up when done. Narciso is easy to work with and I would definitely hire his company again."

FAQs for door painting or staining projects in Durham, NC

Professional painters can complete an exterior door painting project in one to three hours, not including drying time. The timeline depends on the door's condition, required preparation, and the number of coats needed. 

Weather conditions significantly impact drying times, with high humidity or extreme temperatures extending the process. Most doors require 24 to 48 hours of curing time before resuming normal use.

While removing the door provides optimal access to all surfaces and edges, many professional painters achieve excellent results with the door remaining in place. For in-position painting, proper hardware protection and masking are essential. Door removal becomes more beneficial when dealing with significant damage, when painting both sides simultaneously, or when making dramatic color changes that require extra coats.

The ideal paint for exterior doors is a high-quality, weather-resistant formulation designed specifically for outdoor conditions. Acrylic latex paints offer excellent moisture resistance and color retention, while oil-based options provide superior hardness for high-traffic areas. Semi-gloss or gloss finishes repel dirt and moisture more effectively than flat finishes. Door material also influences paint selection—metal doors benefit from rust-inhibiting formulas, while wood doors may require specialized primers.

Hiring a professional delivers superior results for exterior door painting, especially for front entrances where appearance matters most. Professionals bring specialized equipment, extensive experience, and efficient techniques that ensure a smooth, durable finish.

While DIY painting saves on labor costs, you'll need proper tools, adequate preparation knowledge, and sufficient time to achieve comparable results. For complex door styles or when changing colors dramatically, professional expertise often justifies the additional expense.
