"F I S H Painting & Drywall did a great job on getting my 2 upstairs bathrooms’ back up to snuff. I had been wanting to get the drywall fixed around our 2 bathtubs and standup shower as it had start chipping and coming off around the tops of the enclosures. On a scale of 1 to 10, my bathrooms were a 4, they were in desperate need of help. I end up talking to 4 vendors about the job and settled on Dennie/ F I S H Painting & Drywall. The main selling point, he had 40 yrs of doing this type of work. I needed someone to take the extra step and had the knowledge to do it right, since it was getting pretty bad. You can hire cheap, but that is what you get most times. I needed experience in this case. I ended up needing a ton of nail pops fixed in 4 bedrooms and the 2 bathrooms. They redid bad tape joints in our small bathroom and in our ceilings. They were also able to retexture the ceilings to match the existing too, which I was definitely wanting. And then I had just the 2 bathrooms painted top to bottom for now. I am concentrating more on just the bathrooms first. They were fast to get to my job when I told them I was ready. I thought it was going to be a couple of weeks and they had a couple of people that needed to rearrange schedules, so I got bumped up. They suggested a satin paint for bathrooms and the proper ceiling paint for a bathroom too. I did have some additional nail pops that needed to be addressed after everything was done, due to the walls being white before. Sometimes it is hard to catch them all on a white wall. Dennie came out and fixed them. He even found extra ones that I did not see too. I appreciate him taking the time to come out and do a double take on everything. Now I can sleep better at night. I feel that I have gotten off to a good start getting the house started."

"I highly recommend ONIT Painting. They did an amazing job and were very thorough and detail-oriented. Robert and Patrick of the painting crew were very professional and always friendly. They were well organized and planned out the work of each day. They used a wide variety of equipment and were always prepared for any situation they came across. Drew, the consultant I initially met with and Ruben, the production manager were very communicative and available to answer any questions I had and the painters were also helpful and would ask every day if I had any questions or concerns. I never had any worries and I am very happy with the quality of their painting. My compliments to everyone at ONIT Painting for the positive experience!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Indianapolis, IN

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.
