"I did LOT's of reserch on roofing issues, and had several contractors bid on this roof.  I got connected with Tom at PPC by referal from my neighbor, who is a general contractor himself. <br /> <br /> Tom was one of the lowest bids, but not the lowest.  However, I felt FAR more comfortable with Tom after talking extensively with him about the issues at my specific house than any of the lower or equal bids.  Tom awnsered many questions from me, and showed he really knew what he was talking about.  He also made a few very good suggestions.  I specified certain specific materials, and he was happy to accomidate my requests.  Even on the materials I did not specify brand/model, they used high quality stuff (ridge vent, drip edge, valley flashing, etc). <br /> <br /> The crew came out and did a very nice job.  After it was done, I had one very minor complaint: a  piece of drip edge was sticking ot about 1/2" due to a old trim nail that had popped out).  It was a purely cosmetic issue that most people I'm sure would have never noticed, but as soon as I let Tom know, he came out and fixed it. <br /> <br /> My new roof looks great, and based on the referal from my contractor neighbor and my personal interaction with Tom, I am confident that Personal Pride will stand by their work.  If any of my friends or family need a new roof, I will certainly be recommending Personal Pride without reservation."

"<p>Andrew was a fun to work with. He helped us design and finish our basement. We use the space every day and now over a year later we still love it. </p> <p>Andrew did frame work, tile work, painting, installed doors, trim work around doors / windows and helped us find quality contractors in areas he did not work in. We are very happy with the services we received and would refer Andrew. </p>"

"We are so pleased with the work that was done. Our very old gym set looks almost brand new after power washing and new stain. Work was done timely and with care. Pablo was a pleasure to work with and was very receptive to answering my texts and questions. Would love to do business with this company again. Highly recommend!"

"<p>This Company did everything they said they would do in our contract including power washing the house, doing minor repairs to the cedar siding, caulking, as well as spraying and back-rolling the stain. The doors were coated with 2 coats of primer and 2 finish coats of paint.</p> The painters taped all the windows (which didn't need painting), and were careful with our landscaping and deck. The work was done when they indicated it would be with only a 1 day delay due to rain. <br /> The whole crew was professional, friendly, and polite, and answered any questions we had. <br /> GREAT JOB! Would hire this Company again without hesitation. Our home looks fantastic! <br />"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Mankato, MN

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.
