"I hired Perfectos to clean out and organize my garage. I had lots of boxes I needed broken down and furniture I needed hauled out. They arrived on time and got it all done in a few hours. I am super impressed with their work and would recommend them to anyone needing help with cleaning or projects around the house."

"This painting job is one of several TRU Painting has done for me. When we purchased this home four years ago we had the interior painted completely. We had the chimney inside and outside painted as well. All of the painters were very polite and helpful. They were on time and were attentive to the task. They cleaned up any and all mess."

"Mark (MB Painting) was a pleasure to work with. He walked us through our options, quoted us a fair price, and returned every call promptly. The final product was perfect, and we couldn't be happier with how it turned out. He even did the job on a Saturday to make up for a delay caused by rainy weather (which obviously wasn't his fault). Our final bill was the same as his quote, $300.00. I would recommend Mark to anyone, and we will call him the next time we need anything painted. <br />"

"We recently used Clint to repair and paint the entire interior of a home we were preparing to sell in Missoula. He was quick to respond to our initial call requesting information and was able to help us out on pretty short notice so that we could list our home as quickly as possible. Clint worked with us remotely (we live in Billings) and with our realtor to get into the home, provide us a full bid for the project, and get to work right away. He stuck to his schedule and price without any questions asked, recommended several remedies for repair issues in the home (outside of just the painting), and provided honest and timely updates regarding his progress along the way. Overall, Clint did a fantastic job on the project. The house now looks better than it ever did since we bought it. He was professional, courteous, extremely helpful, and extremely skilled at his craft. We would highly recommend Clint to anyone with interior (or any other) home painting needs. Thanks Clint!"

"Mike Hagen (and all of his crew) are hands down the BEST contractors to work with. Mike is such a down to earth guy, and was so accommodating to build our house the way we wanted it! Even after the house was finished, he has been so responsive in coming to help us figure out the quirks of it all. I HIGHLY recommend him! The next home we build will definitely be a Hagen Construction house!"

"This is one of several College Pro Painting franchises in the Missoula area, and the only one who displayed at the Spring Home and Garden Show at the Adams Center.  Ryan Hover is the owner and an upper level business major at UM who has enough experience with a general contractor in painting previous to this enterprise, plus having worked as a painter and job manager for other College Pro franchises in the Missoula area.  While they missed their start date by a week, it was through mutual agreement, because we wanted "experienced" painters, but their "college kid" painters began to quit early (a couple weeks before school started) putting our job off a week - but it worked out with our schedule.  There is a sweet spot in scheduling, where the beginner painters have a few weeks of experience and are not completely new, which is why we selected an early August date.  We did get our bid in shortly after the garden show so were on his schedule early.  Ryan Hover is a high-energy, committed, and thorough budding entrepreneur.  He communicates well and kept us informed by telephone with follow-up calls.  He intends to continue this business in the future and may already be scheduling 2014.  We were very pleased and would be happy to have anyone from Angies List in the Missoula area look at our home and his work if it will help during their consideration of house painters.  We contacted a total of 4 painters, receiving bids from two others.  Some may question the "all A's" rating, but I'll be happy to break it down.  Price was fair, considering other bids.  Quality was excellent - I'm not sure a painter with years of experience would have done any better - maybe a little quicker with a smaller punch list - but even our "punch list" of some drips here, and missed fascia there, etc. was only about a 45 minute touch-up job.  Responsiveness - again excellent - I don't think a call-back was more than a day; Ryan was prompt considering he was on multiple jobs. Punctuality - he was on time for every meeting or phone call. Professionalism - maybe he was not a painter with 20 years experience, but he has a solid group of people to "go to" when needed, and as above, I'm not sure the results could be better.  Thus, an overall "A" rating. <br />      - Dave Mihalic <br />"

"<p> By way of a high recommendation from our Real-Estate Agent that has helped us with several properties here in Missoula, my wife and I have had the opportunity to use 'Paint By Numbers' and deal with Steve Bayha on two different occasions and can't be happier with the quality of work done, timeliness and professionalism exhibited by the crews doing the work.  </p> <p> <br /> <br /></p> <p>Having spent a career globe-trotting (and seeing many types of work ethics around the world relating to quality of work done), my wife and I finally decided to return to our Montana roots and retire in Missoula.  It took us 10 months to completely remodel the 1965 vintage house we decided on when it was time to address the exterior for repair and painting.  Paint By Numbers came highly recommended so we awarded them the job of completely painting our 2-story (daylight basement on 3 sides) Ranch House in the South Hills.  We started out with a clear understanding of what was to be done and expected for the end product.  The crew showed up each day on-time and covered where they were at on the job and what they intended on getting done each day.  The crew literally became part of the family befriending our two 'springer spaniels' and always looked out for them making sure they didn't disrupt their work.  At the end of the job, a thorough review was done to catch anything that might have been missed and all items (minor) were taken care of!</p> <p> <br /> <br /></p> <p>My second opportunity came recently when we were re-furbishing a townhouse (2-story) that my in-laws had moved out of and we needed to have the entire interior repainted.  Upon the initial call regarding a potential job, Steve was 'johnny on the spot' providing an estimate and timing for when they might be able to fit us into their schedule.  After awarding the bid, the work was done as scheduled and earlier than proposed.  Once I pointed out two minor issues, the crew was back the next day to provide the final product which everyone was pleased with.</p> <p> <br /> <br /></p> <p>I'm sure that when our current home requires additional interior or exterior painting, Paint By Numbers and Steve Bayha will be our 'go-to' contractor!</p> <br />"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Missoula, MT

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.
