"Alex and his team did an unbelievable job on our kitchen. Repainting and refacing worn black cabinets with frosted glass and outdated hardware, Alex’s team painted our cabinets white, replaced panels and switched out hardware. The result is stunning! It’s hard to believe we were even considering replacing the cabinets. Additionally Alex was a complete joy to work with. He is kind, fastidious and has a shrewd eye for detail. We are thrilled with our new kitchen!"

"Wally did an excellent job. We had a water damaged wall in one bedroom -- he removed the damaged wall, installed drywall and a new window frame, and painted the walls the ceiling. It looks beautiful! He removed all of the debris and everything was spotless when he was finished -- you would never know work had been done -- and it only took 3 days! He gave me an excellent price and I couldn't be happier with the whole experience. I highly recommend White Ladder Decorating."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in North Chicago, IL

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.
