"I hired James and his crew for a complete interior paint on a home we just purchased. They completely exceeded my expectations. Not only were they fast, but the work is of the highest quality. I definitely recommend them as they are among the elite as far as I am concerned. As far as price, not only was his quote the best quote received, the attention to detail that was provided by the crew was on point. In short, they are very good at what they do and they provided us with a very easy, quality, and thorough experience."

Customers say: Super punctual

"Baldo was courteous, knowledgeable, and always on time. He and his crew prepped and painted my front porch floor, and side porch door and threshold. They did an excellent job cutting in the edges ... no easy task considering the bright brick red and black that I chose. Baldo took care to watch the weather so that the paint was applied in optimum conditions. They also gently power washed my 112-year-old home leaving it looking wonderfully refreshed. I highly recommend Ambrocio's Painting and would hire them again."

"KBG Constuction did amazing work for us. They have been very professional, friendly, and understanding to our needs, and did exactly what we asked for. They were on time, responsive, and completed the job very quickly with quality results we are very happy with. Specifically, we had a room that had extensive water damage, drywall and ceilings had to be replaced. We had hired a handyman to do the job originally, but he ended up doing poor quality work and stopped showing up. It was starting to become a nightmare. That's when we found KBG Construction and we had the job corrected and finished, sheetrock, ceilings, trim, paint all done in short order - we were and still are amazed at how nice everything came out, with no stress. Thanks KBG, glad we found you!"

"A soft wall due to improperly installed gutter by some other entity or homeowner caused water to constantly leak into the wall from the exterior roofline. This soft wall grow moldy and become riddled with pests/bugs. The contractor identified the potential issues, agreed to explore and open the walls and discuss the conditions, made sound recommendations for repair and did exactly what was noted in the repair (replaced a load bearing exterior wall, fixed the sill plate, completed the roof, shingles etc. and closed up the walls on the inside with insulation and sheet rock.). The work was timely, well done, the workers were clean as they did the job and kept the rest of the property clean. The manager of the job David Apel was and is an excellent communicator with phone/email/text and photos of processes and progress. I am going to use this company in my own investment endeavors on other properties and projects given the level of finished work, the timing and especially the level of detailed communication."

"Great work power washing, staining, and leveling our large deck. Melvin came out to give us a decent estimate. Workers worked for 2 days straight on the project and were pleasant and professional. Customer service kept up to date on the project and was also very pleasant and professional. I now have a beautiful deck. Would hire again without a doubt!"

"When I contacted FreshCoat, I said "I usually just paint myself, but I bought this crazy metallic paint at Target, and it looks like it's complicated to apply. Do you have experience with this type of paint?"  Reassurances all around. The painter, Doug, called me with a litany of "faux finish" jobs he had done that looked great.

He painted the room with my paint, and after two coats, he packed up, reassuring me that it was going to look great when it dried. Well, after a day or two, it was clearly a disaster. I called Barbara, who came out to look and of course said that the job needed to be fixed. Score 1 star for FreshCoat.

Barbara (administrator) and Douglas (painter) met and decided that I needed to use paint that he was familiar with. This
seemed totally reasonable, and I figured I should have known better than to buy house paint at Target. So I went to Lowes and purchased the primer, base coat, and metallic that they recommended.

Douglas came back, forgot to use the primer (he read the paint cans wrong), and finished the job with his recommended paint. Again, he packed up and left with reassurances. The picture that I'm attaching isn't of wet paint, or of one coat when another was planned. This was the finished job, several days later.

I called poor Barbara to complain again, and again she came out to look at it. I told her that I was not going to pay for the full rate of painting, and we settled on a price for their effort plus several days of work, etc. 800 dollars.

I am giving a C rather than an F because I appreciated that the owners were apologetic, rather than trying to make it seem like I was crazy or too demanding. Barbara's parting words were "Doug usually does a really good job..."  They didn't offer to send another painter to fix it, and I didn't insist, because at that point it had gone on for over a week and I was tired of having people in the house.

I ended up getting boring, non-metallic paint and re-painting it myself. It was a total waste of a thousand dollars (when I add the cost of many cans of paint)"

"The Corrigan team did an excellent job of painting the house. We have had the house painted twice before, but never saw such extensive prep work as happened this time. In addition, rotten wood was replaced and the shutters, some of which had broken and/or rotted, were refurbished. The house now looks like new. In addition, they repainted the floor of the screened porch and the rear stoop, which we did not expect. Our only caveat is that cleanup was not as anticipated. Joe said they would vacuum up the chips and dust, but the most they did was to blow some of the dust under a bush. Over all, I would certainly recommend them to anyone who wants a thorough and expert job done on their house."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Meriden, CT

For aluminum siding, go with a high-quality 100% acrylic exterior paint. Start with an oil-based primer to ensure the finish adheres and shields the metal from oxidation and moisture. The primer seals the surface and provides the acrylic with a surface to grip. Skip latex primers or paints—their reaction with aluminum can trap bubbles and cause early peeling.

How long will painted aluminum siding last?

A well-done paint job on aluminum siding can last around 15 years, making the upfront effort worthwhile. Longevity hinges on solid prep: thoroughly cleaning the surface to remove chalky residue, dirt, and mildew so the new paint can adhere properly. It’s also important to paint when temperatures are between 50°F and 80°F, as extreme heat or cold can affect drying and adhesion. Steer clear of rainy days—moisture under the paint weakens adhesion and speeds up peeling or fading, which can significantly shorten the lifespan of your fresh coat.

Plan on repainting when the finish starts fading or leaves a chalky, white residue on your hand. Check the siding each year; if there’s a powdery residue on your palm, it indicates oxidation is underway on your siding. A fresh coat of paint stops peeling before it starts, boosts curb appeal, and keeps the metal protected.

Spray painting aluminum siding offers significant benefits compared to other application styles. Spray painting delivers even coverage, rapid application, and enhanced adhesion compared to traditional painting methods. This technique ensures every surface is evenly coated, minimizes labor time, and provides a sleek, professional finish that withstands weather and oxidation for lasting results.

The return on investment for aluminum siding is 70%. For example, a $10,000 aluminum siding installation will add $7,000 to your home’s resale value. Regional housing markets, the quality of siding materials, and ongoing upkeep—including repainting and repairs—influence final ROI. Investing in professional installation and regular maintenance ensures you recoup a significant portion of your siding costs when it’s time to sell.

Several materials can replace aluminum siding, each offering unique trade-offs. Vinyl siding requires minimal upkeep and resists fading, lasting up to 30 years. Wood siding provides classic warmth but demands regular painting or sealing. Fiber cement and composite siding offer exceptional durability and design flexibility, requiring minimal maintenance. Brick veneer and stucco create premium, long-lasting exteriors, but they come with higher upfront costs and increased installation complexity.
