"Very satisfied with Wow. Had a major project of painting our old house, including carpentry for a great deal of wood rot, and full replacement of our shutters. We worked with Craig Merrils on securing a quote and scheduling the work. He was wonderful to work with, came in fairly priced, and was super responsive to all our needs. Josue supervised the work onsite. The staff was highly skilled and hard working. They are committed to quality and definitely the best out there in terms of detailed, lasting work. They also use high-grade, low-toxin paint, which was important to us. After the job was complete, Craig and Josue went carefully over the work with us, and addressed any and all touch ups that were needed. They address any questions or issues you have until you are 100% satisfied. Highly recommend."

"The experience went very well. Mr. Mendez was both professional and courteous. I cannot say enough for his employee Jose who painted the front of the house. Jose was courteous, or his mask, and showed a lot of experience using the spray painter. He did not leave any mess Honda House or any Trash in the yard. I would hire this company again"

"We recently used Fame Interiors for painting the exterior trim on the house and interior painting of our family room. Fame did an excellent job on both the interior and exterior work. Ali, the owner of the company, was a pleasure working with him. He didn't cut corners. We were planning on replacing our overhead garage doors, but the paint and putty job that he did on the doors no longer required replacing them. In short, his price and the quality of his work makes him our "go to" painter."

"They did a fantastic job on my large 2 level deck! They were very careful not to get stain on the patio underneath or the new siding on the house! We were so pleased with their professionalism and attention to detail that we also had them pain the entire main level of our house, walls and ceiling. Again, a beautiful, careful and professional job from prep to finishing touches! They also removed a decorative column that has plagued me for years and you would never know it was there now. I plan to hire them again for future jobs in our home. Excellent!!"

"I am extremely pleased with the work Benjamin and his crew did on painting the exterior of my home. The prep work was excellent—Benjamin took the time to thoroughly pressure wash the exterior, which made a big difference in the finished product. The results are amazing, and I’ve already received so many compliments on the fresh new look of my house. I truly appreciate their professionalism and attention to detail."

"Highly recommend Jose and his team! We hired them to paint the exterior of our home, including the chimneys and gutters. They did an excellent job - they worked carefully and cleanly, kept us informed as to when they would be here while navigating an unpredictable stretch of weather, and Jose was super patient, applying multiple color samples to the house and chimneys so we could find just the right color. Everything came out great, and the price was exactly as quoted - no games - and far better than other quotes we received. Will absolutely use them again."

"I was very happy with the work performed by Leal Remodeling, Painting and Handyman Services. Ferney Leal and his crew did extensive prep work: power washing, sanding, caulking, priming, and replaced damaged wood. Finally, they painted all of the wood trim on the exterior of our home and painted the porch. Our house was looking a little worn down, now it looks first rate."

Customers say: True professional

"First off! I was so worried about finding a good painting company that would also not rip me off. from the first call to the end of my project the gentleman was so wonderful and so friendly. They were there when they said that they would be. It is so hard to find good honest people and he really is great! I knew I could trust him and his team with my home. I love my home but it needed to be painted inside and I knew I wanted someone to do it right but also care about the house and the owner. I felt so comfortable around this team. they not only painted great they cleaned up the mess! I cant praise this company enough !!!! I absolutely LOVE them. If I need anymore services I will be sure to hire them again and I will also share this company with friends and family. Thank you J & H painting for bringing my home back to life again! I love you guys!!! this was the first time that I had my entire house painted professionally and I am so pleased with the work. Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!! :)"

"R&L Pressure Washing was responsive, easy to work with, and very competitively priced. Their first paint job (on a rental home we own) was so good that we asked him and his team to come out and paint our current home! The team works efficiently and is able to bring new life to the interior of your home. Thank you!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Kensington, MD

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.
