"Cruz Home Painting LLC did an excellent job painting the exterior of our home. Jesús and his team’s attention to detail on the project resulted in a high quality paint job. Jesús communicated with us on all stages of the job and ensured that all parties were on the same page. The quality of work was definitely worth the price."

"Mr. Jones and his crew did a great job on painting our home. They showed up on time, were professional and did an excellent job both inside and out. I would highly recommend them to anyone and will definitely be using them again in the future for any other paint jobs we may have."

"We had previously hired Paz Painting to remove popcorn from the ceilings in 2 rooms and hired his crew again to do the same in our dining and living rooms, an entryway and the upstairs stairwell ceiling. They also painted several rooms. They did a great job in both regards and did a nice job of cleaning up when done. Narciso is easy to work with and I would definitely hire his company again."

"ok. There was no confirmation call or respond to email until after the worker showed up. He arrived without any basic materials ( tape, rollers...) and left to find a Sherwin WIlliams although Lowe's is a mile a way. He returned 45 minutes later and took a brief lunch break. We paid for 8 hours of work. He left early - at 4:30 and we thought he was done. He never finished the job and left the bedroom doors and window trim unfinished. I assumed the company would follow up but never heard from them. The paint looks good and the color change was successful, but there are flecks of something gritty all over so I suspect the wall wasn't cleaned first."

"Deon and the entire That 1 Painter team are meticulous and dedicated to an excellent service. I reached out for a quote to paint a large portion of my home, including my living room, dining room and home office. I was shortly contacted by Deon and his manager, Sebian came by and provided a free quote. The prices were extremely competitive, and they were willing to fit me in with my tight schedule of summer travel . The team came about a week later and provided immaculate service. Great care was taken of my belongings. Plastic covers were placed over my furniture to protect them. The trim was properly taped. My father was a home painter, so I know what prep work is correct. Deon and his team continued to stay in contact with me every step of the way, even after the experience to ensure I was satisfied. My dad, like me, was impressed with the job. I highly recommend That 1 Painter. You will not find a better company or people in this area to do painting for your home or business."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Raleigh, NC

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.
