"Juan and his team painted the interior of my home and they were professional from beginning to end. On Juan’s initial visit, we discussed at length what I wanted to have done and the various areas of concern. He explained how he would address those areas, putting me at ease about his deep knowledge and experience, and the level of detail and precision he uses in his approach to his work. Juan also did a very good job at managing my expectations. He provided me with a cost estimate and let me know the cost range for certain areas due to unknowns. He showed me his proposal template so I knew what to expect when I received it. He even volunteered a copy of his insurance policy so I knew I didn’t have to be concerned with potential liability issues in case of an accident or injury. Finally, as promised, his team showed up everyday until the job was completed. I could not be happier with the result – it is just a beautiful job! So beautiful in fact that I also asked Juan to do my kitchen. I highly recommend him."

"I highly recommend Five Star Painting of Merrillville! They did an excellent job painting the interior (walls and ceilings) of our house! We also had them repair drywall from installing new can lights and now you cannot even tell where the damage was. They are so detailed and really go above and beyond! If you need help picking colors, they have a great eye and give tailored recommendations for your specific space. So much time is spent prepping the walls before painting even begins - not just fixing the holes from things like picture hangers but looking for nail pops, cracks, uneven spots, you name it - they want the end result to be as close to perfect as possible. The crew was friendly, on time, organized, and clean. Overall great customer service and communication from start to finish and very competitive pricing. I really cannot say enough good things about my experience with Five Star Painting. Use them!"

"Simon and his guys did a great job painting the entire interior of my home in Schererville. I had a lot of drywall work and patching as well. They painted my ceilings, walls, trim, doors, and cabinets. I am looking to get more painting done in the future and will use Legacy painting again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Portage, IN

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.
