"I would highly recommend David Docherty Painting. Their pricing is fair and they are easy to work with. I had them stain a deck. Since the deck is off the second floor, both top and underside needed to be done. They did an excellent job w/no mess or over spray to deal with. "

"The experience of having a roof installed on a home that is attached to a neighbor has all the pitfalls that could negatively affect your relationship with your neighbor. As well as affecting the other neighbors because parking is at a premium at this city location. Paddys eliminated those pitfalls by performing in such an efficient manner that the work performed was accomplished in a single day minimizing the pain to our neighbors. As for the quality of the workmanship, Joses crew was as professional as they come. They were polite and responsive to my requests. Also Brian the QC inspector was professional in performing his oversite to ensure me that my neighbors home was as good or better than when the roof work was started. Matt the project manager was quick to respond to whatever I asked of them. These individuals demonstrated Paddys customer-focused culture and professionalism in all aspects of their job, be it workmanship, communication, or customer service. The overall experience was performed flawlessly and met or exceeded my expectations."

"We had a positive and great experience. My call was answered immediately and the appointment to go over the project was made for that same week. We chose the paint colors with input from Larry who manages the company. He was in constant contact with us about scheduling of our work and came by to introduce me to the painter and walked with us through the project. Over the two day project, Tracy did a wonderful job in excruciating hot weather. One set of shutters required minor repair and re-attachment to the house. They all required scraping off of years of old paint. Exterior caulking was done in areas that required it. Tracey was very thorough and her attention to detail was great. She was on time and very professional. Everything looks so fresh!"

"Hiring a qualified contractor to perform work in your home can be a risky endeavor. We developed a scope of work to fully wallpaper our 3rd floor hallway & paint our 3rd floor plus master bedroom – all with high ceilings, complex angles and interstitial wall vs trim. After visits by all bidders and reviewing the prior work of each, our choice was immediate: David Deegler. He demonstrated a very clear-cut knowledge of the work, and his wealth of experience was very evident to us. To top it off, David is a very genuine & friendly man. David guided us on our procurement of necessary wallpaper and selection of wall paints; he promptly scheduled us for the work first week of August. In the past we have used other contractors whom failed to meet their scheduled commitments and dragged the jobs out to our dismay. We are very happy to confirm David’s team not only kept all of his commitments on schedule and timing, but actually finished early (and during a tropical storm none the less). He and his team were prompt, courteous and safe. Measures were taken to protect everything in the home during the work – not a single drop of paint anywhere. The execution of the work was immaculate & professional in every regard; we would hire David Deegler for every home project we desire in the future. Specifically, the wallpaper project was incredible – zero seams, all patterns match contiguously, and the finished product is smooth and beautiful. The painting work was completed perfectly as well – ceilings and walls, with all prior imperfections rectified and removed from sight permanently. David personally performed the work and assured the quality of the work. The end result was absolutely lovely and completed without any issues or concerns. David consulted us frequently on possible adjustments to our design during the work – all of which were excellent – and is something you will not receive with a typical contractor. His material estimate was 100% on point which we cannot say for his competition. The cleanup was invisible as well. If you want a premium quality, efficiently executed home project with zero headaches and maximum satisfaction at the right price, then look no further than David Deegler. Our only regret is we did not discover him sooner. Learn from our mistake and hire him today to improve your home!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Hockessin, DE

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.
