"I was very impressed with the service I recieved. The painters thoroughly preped the surfaces and match the existing color with high quality paint that will last years. There were no drips or overspray and cleaned up everything when they completed the job. I highly recommend this company."

"Great. They were very reachable and responsive. Gave us plenty of options and performed as promised. A year after the work, they made an appointment and came back out to inspect their work to make sure we were satisfied. I would highly recommend them for any painting or staining."

In short, hire this company : ). Robert and Chris came out to quote the job and arrived on time. They provided a detailed quote by email. The email also included all of their license and insurance information which was great.

They focused on the interior portion of our job first. They arrived on time every day at 7:50am at our request. I could tell that they were going to do a good job since they spent a couple of days prepping the interior for painting. The prep work is critical for painting and these guys do not take short cuts on the prep work. The 50 year old bathroom cabinet paint was in bad shape. We decided to keep them since the wood structure was in good shape. The guys did a great job sanding and scraping the old paint off the cabinets and old door jambs. When I came home I was expecting to find a lot of dust due to the prep work but to my surprise there was none! Great job cleaning up. Every day they cleaned up and organized their area before they left which we really appreciated. They also painted an interior hallway that runs most of the length of the house. Since we did not paint the entire interior, it was important to match the old paint that is throughout the rest of the house. We were not expecting a perfect match. They took a small piece of the plaster wall for color matching and the color matched perfectly.

We chose a bright white for the interior trim which required three to four coats of paint. They took the time to do it right by applying thin coats instead of applying thick coats of paint which would have saved them time but it would have looked terrible. Needless to say the interior paint looks great.

When they moved out to the exterior, they arrived at 7:15 to get an early start. Robert helped us match the exterior paint of a house in a nearby neighborhood that we liked. We would have chosen a color that was too dark without his help. They power washed the house, trenched around the foundation of the house, caulking the seams in the siding, patched peeling stucco, patched old wood that could be saved, and spent several days scraping the old exterior paint. I was really glad to see them spend so much time just in the preparation to paint.  The siding on our house required careful masking where it meets the eves and again they took the time to do it right. They of course masked all of the windows, removed door and window screens. They also took down old gutters, light fixtures, unused television cable, and pulled all the old nails that had been added over the years to hang stuff so that they can properly paint underneath all of that stuff.

Once the prep work was done, the painting actually goes on very fast since they can spray the main color on. They did some of the best work on our garage doors. I was thinking we would just have to replace them but they honestly made them look like new which is nice because I don't think we could get doors like these originals that they saved and the design matches the rest of the house. Again we have zero complaints with the exterior paint work. The house looks like new thanks to the diligent preparation.

One thing we would do different is to get Robert involved with the color selection earlier. We stressed over the color of the house and he has a great eye and made us feel confident that we were not doing anything silly. He really is a color expert so take advantage of his advice. He led us to the perfect color for our front door. He showed us three entirely different colors to choose from that would work with our main house color, some we would have never thought of ourselves. We picked one and he was right on the money, it looks great.

Chris ran the job smoothly and Abraham was the lead painter on site. The entire paint crew works hard and we couldn't be more satisfied with all of the work.

"We needed to paint the interior of our house under a tight schedule so we could sell it and Francisco came through for us. He was very flexible working with us so that we could live in the house and work with other contractors while the painting was ongoing."

Customers say: True professional

"I have known Sergio for many years and more recently have gotten to know his son Bryan. He was originally referred to me by a neighbor when the time came to paint the exterior of my home. Sergio was a consummate professional from beginning to end. He was extremely helpful in working with us on paint schemes and when it came to the job, his prep work was methodic and precise as was the actual painting. The house looked amazing and we received many complements on it. Sergio subsequently painted the interior of our home and likewise did an amazing job. Since then, Sergio and Bryan have worked on painting jobs for my mother as well as on rental properties that I own. The quality of their work is always superb and just as importantly, their rates are very competitive. I wouldn't consider using anyone else on my painting projects. I highly recommend."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Foothill Ranch, CA

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.
