"Excellent work done by painters Felix and Oscar. My house looks wonderful. These two painters showed up every day, did great work in painting wood trim on our 3 story home plus painted trim on our garage, painted our awning, vestibule, wood columns. Caulked or replaced trim where needed. I highly recommend this company. Felix and Oscar are great assets to University Painters."

"I am very pleased. From getting a very reasonable estimate until the painting began ( despite the rainy spring) took about a month and a half. The crew was professional, courteous, and hard working. My 100+ year old Victorian home's wooden eaves needed replacing and were too high for ladders, and the spindles on the front porch were time consuming. so it was not an easy job. It all looks wonderful!. Thank you JC and team."

"The owners of the company were helpful and easy to talk to . The professionals they sent to do the painting did an excellent job. They covered everything and made sure no paint got on anything but where it was supposed to be painted. I highly recommend them and I will use them again. Thanks again gabe and jen for doing such an excellent job."

"I am pleased to tell all that we hired Michael Vessey to paint the home we had just purchased. It was a blank canvas at 3 years old with only builder grade white. The house became a home with all ceilings getting a super white. The walls in each room received its own color and a house became our home! Michael and his team are great! On time and on budget…..!"
These three pillars were fun to paint. We painted the white trim boxes as well as the gray.

"As stated above I had Jim McDonnell Contracting paint all the exterior trim and wood on the outside house and garage. The employee sent out was David, he was always there when he said he would be. If there was ever a delay due to bad weather he would inform me right away. I am very pleased with the final outcome, I would definitely recommend Jim McDonnell Contracting, my house looks so much better since I called them."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Lancaster, PA

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.
