"We hired Golden Touch for an exterior paint job that had a deadline for completion. We had several rainy days that slowed our project but Mario and his crew worked very hard day and night to make our house presentable for our event and then finished up as the weather permitted. Tim, the owner, kept us informed on the project progress and provided great customer service to ensure everything was done to our satisfaction. Kara the color consultant was awesome and helped us choose our color scheme with ease. Our house was totally transformed and looks amazing!"

"This is the 2nd time I've used Perfection Painting and when I needed my main floor painted, Paul and his team were the first ones I called. Ali and Tony did a great job painting my main floor, 2 stairways and hallway. They were always communicating on what they would be working on that day and did a nice job of making sure they cleaned up each area. I am very pleased with how everything turned out and would definitely use them again for my future painting needs!"

"Jim went above and beyond. He power washed my deck, restoring it to a color that I never knew it was. There was a board or two that needed to be replaced, and in pulling them up, Jim discovered some rotten boards in my deck, so he replaced them. He stained the deck, it looks like new. He also did a great job on all of the interior painting: they were high and difficult spots to get to, and he even did an accent wall for me. I'm 100% pleased and would definitely call him again."

"We had an excellent experience with Elite Painting. We live in a historical area of Des Moines and must meet certain guidelines. We thought we would need to replace several pieces of siding and some window sills. Donald and his crew repaired all of the damaged areas and did a great paint job. Donald is a true craftsman and I would recommend him highly to anyone."

"We replaced approximately 10 exterior trim boards in advance of painting our house. Judd was very quick to respond to my request for an estimate and great with communication throughout the project. His walk-thru during the estimate process was very thorough and you could tell he was knowledgeable by the items he pointed out about the construction of our house and recommendations he made. His crew was timely, hardworking and detailed. Judd wasn't there for the entire job, but was on-site daily and was always asking if the work was acceptable. At the end of the job he did a walk-thru of everything completed, which we were very pleased with. I felt very comfortable with his crew and highly recommend them."

"Brian, the owner, was very knowledgeable and professional. His crew was always on time, professional, patient about answering my many questions, and worked hard to do a great job.   Brian was onsite daily to see how the job was going and to see if I had any questions. My home was built in 1930.  It was important to have CR Painting, also, because they are are lead-paint certified.  The job was not easy.  There was a lot of glazing needed on the windows and there were heavy storm-windows that had to be taken off and put back on.   I am very pleased with the job they did.  My house looks great!  I would not hesitate to hire CR Painting again.  <br /> <br />"

"I've painted houses and hired people to paint my houses. This was by far the simplest process. This is not the contractor to hire if you want a budget job. I don't think Mr. Peterson minds me saying that. This is the contractor to hire if you want it done perfectly. I saw no paint splashes, no overspray, the paint was applied correctly and hid the previous colors (some lighter, some darker). Just no worries. <br />"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Martensdale, IA

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.
