"A few weeks ago we found ourselves needing to move an elderly parent quickly due to the coronavirus. The bathtub had to be replaced with a walk-in shower. This contractor gutted the bathroom down to the studs and built it back(including expanding and tiling the shower) The shower was made handicap accessible and enlarged. He worked quickly and finished in 6 days!!! We really couldn’t be happier with the finished product or Harold’s professionalism."

"The flocked ceiling had many issues - water damage - a hole cut near the flue for a wood burning stove and cracks due to structural changes. They repaired three rooms - one small bath room that had peeled above the bathtub, one 12' X 20' kitchen that  had water damage in two places due to upstairs toilets overflowing and one 20' X 30' cathedral ceiling that had water damage and a hole near the flue for a wood burning stove and cracks and nail pops. Though there was some discussion on whether to patch or to redo the entire area, all was done neatly and is holding up three years later. <br /> Their original design for a fake beam did not meet our expectations. (My husband & I are engineers). So we designed what we wanted and they were able to create it and stain it to match our woodwork. <br /> The cedar eaves were damaged by pesky squirrels and they stained and installed new boards where they were needed."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Jacksonville, IL

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.
