"Had MQ Painting paint the exterior of my house and garage and could not be happier. Did everything the right way! First came and power washed everything a few days before, then on first day of painting removed all old caulk and re-caulked, plus filled any holes. Gave everything 2 coats and on one part that was stain actually gave 3 coats. Original quote did not include foundation, soffit, gutters, front and rear stairs but Jose added those in at a reasonable price, so had those done too. Also painted chimney at no extra charge, On top of all this they completed the job in 2 days. Could tell from first time I had Jose come out to give me a quote he was very knowledgeable and passionate about his business and painting, which I really liked. I would not hesitate to recommend MQ Painting to anybody. I guarantee you will be happy with the quality of work and price you'll receive from MQ Painting."

"I highly recommend Juan and his crew. They painted my garage and 2 story home. Juan and his crew were prompt, polite, very professional. They answered all my questions and as they worked, they addressed all the details of the project, as we had discussed. They kept their work area clean as they painted and cleaned up the work area completely when they were finished each day. They appropriately protected areas and items near the painting that they were not painting. Juan and his crew kept me up to date with the project as it progressed. Juan and his crew were a pleasure to work with."

"We contacted Preemo Painting in early fall of 2020. We received a very reasonable estimate, and were told that the work could not be done before winter, but they would do some temporary fixes to protect our home. Also, they guarantee all work as long as you stick to a 5 year repaint schedule. Preemo started the work on March 28th and finished on April 3rd. All of the people who worked at our home were very considerate of us working inside our home, and they were all very knowledgeable and professional. The work they did was fantastic, and we are extremely happy with the results. Every area was repaired, including newly discovered problems we did not know about in the fall. The color was matched perfectly, and everything looks great. We wholeheartedly recommend Preemo Painting, and certainly plan on using them again in 5 years."

"Jay Finnegan and the CertaPro team have been extremely professional and efficient since we first contacted them in August of 2014. After several months of house projects, we were finally able to have CertaPro finish the final touches in our 2 bathrooms. Not only was the team punctual; they took extra measures to make sure our floors were properly covered to avoid any damage prior to beginning the work. They were able to finish some major blemishes on the walls and ceilings of the bathrooms, and still complete the painting job near perfect in less than 7 hours. Needless to say, we highly recommend CertaPro - and will continue to use their services for future painting projects. <br />"

"Absolutely cannot say enough about the fantastic job that Ken and his crew did! From the prompt and very reasonable estimate, to the on-time start and completion dates, Ken was professional and detail minded. He kept us informed and kept his word with everything he said he would do. His crew took care to cover all of our exterior fixtures, clean up behind themselves daily, and there were no random paint droppings left all over our newly laid brickwork. The neighbors are daily paying compliments on the great job that they did and the complete transformation, and we LOVE driving up to our home now! Would not hesitate to recommend Performance Painters to our friends,family and anyone else looking to get any painting work done. They re outstanding!"

"Anthony was very responsive. He came over for an estimate within a day or two after my original call. His quote was competitive. He explained pros and cons of various options and accommodated my request to use a specific brand of paint/stain that I had a lot of success with in the past. When I agreed to hire him, he only required a modest deposit. The job was scheduled within a few weeks and I was very pleased with the results. The crew completed the work on time and cleaned up afterwards. Throughout the job, there was good communication with Anthony on the crew's progress."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Oak Lawn, 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.
