"Progressive Restoration (Marcus Postawa) had a contract with our Town Home Association since 2012. They did an outstanding job on the town homes they painted that year. Due to financial difficulties, our Association did not honor the 2 buildings per year requirement in the contract.  Marcus was more than patient, and worked with the Board in order to fulfill the contract terms.  He even waited 3 years to get the balance paid in full. (9/2015)

The Board of Directors had a 5-way phone conversation with Marcus at a Board Meeting ( April 20, 2016) and we voted 4-1 to accept the new Change Order for 2016, which included a price increase above the 15% contract cost for our default of the 2 buildings per year requirement. The extra cost was due to severe weathering and deterioration of our siding and trim, which was going to require extra time and work. At no time was our Board of Directors considering legal action against Progressive Restoration. 

 Progressive had already signed other contracts prior to receiving our Association's signed contract and down payment, due to one Board member. He needed to complete the other jobs before starting our labor-intensive project. He wanted to begin when he could complete the two buildings from 2015  and start/finish the next two buildings without moving paint , painting equipment, and ladders. 

 I  was the Board member who was in contact with Marc during this new contract change order signed on April 29,2016, and was kept informed of targeted starting dates for our town homes.  He said he was about a month or so out from starting, but an unusual rainy June delayed completion of his other jobs before beginning our town homes.  

 Marcus and his painters had always been courteous and professional to me and other homeowners,  and they were always willing to explain work details.  Marcus contacted me on several occasions to tell me of compromised roofs, cedar trim, and gaps in flashing and siding.  He was told to paint the trim anyway so it looked uniform until it was replaced.

Progressive Restoration fulfilled their contract ( Power washing, caulk, 2 coats of paint...I  watched them while they painted one building in the 90 degree heat). He even included a 60 year caulk at no extra charge. The Board mailed homeowners and asked them to move patio furniture and yard objects away from the buildings prior to the painters beginning, but many didn't comply. The Board had told homeowners that anything not moved would be removed at their own expense, or this area wouldn't be done.  Marcus and his painters moved much of this themselves., at no charge. 

Punch lists were completed.  The President of the Homeowners Association, a Board member on the Architectural Committee, and  I walked each and every building with the painters, with their paint brushes and paint buckets in hand, and asked them to touch up a few areas before they were paid. They reminded us that their work comes with a 3 year warranty, and they seemed very proud of this!

Marcus and his painters did an excellent job, considering the condition of our siding and cedar trim boards. He really is a perfectionist, and I'd recommend Progressive Restoration for any painting job!"

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

For aluminum siding, go with a high-quality 100% acrylic exterior paint. Start with an oil-based primer to ensure the finish adheres and shields the metal from oxidation and moisture. The primer seals the surface and provides the acrylic with a surface to grip. Skip latex primers or paints—their reaction with aluminum can trap bubbles and cause early peeling.

How long will painted aluminum siding last?

A well-done paint job on aluminum siding can last around 15 years, making the upfront effort worthwhile. Longevity hinges on solid prep: thoroughly cleaning the surface to remove chalky residue, dirt, and mildew so the new paint can adhere properly. It’s also important to paint when temperatures are between 50°F and 80°F, as extreme heat or cold can affect drying and adhesion. Steer clear of rainy days—moisture under the paint weakens adhesion and speeds up peeling or fading, which can significantly shorten the lifespan of your fresh coat.

Plan on repainting when the finish starts fading or leaves a chalky, white residue on your hand. Check the siding each year; if there’s a powdery residue on your palm, it indicates oxidation is underway on your siding. A fresh coat of paint stops peeling before it starts, boosts curb appeal, and keeps the metal protected.

Spray painting aluminum siding offers significant benefits compared to other application styles. Spray painting delivers even coverage, rapid application, and enhanced adhesion compared to traditional painting methods. This technique ensures every surface is evenly coated, minimizes labor time, and provides a sleek, professional finish that withstands weather and oxidation for lasting results.

The return on investment for aluminum siding is 70%. For example, a $10,000 aluminum siding installation will add $7,000 to your home’s resale value. Regional housing markets, the quality of siding materials, and ongoing upkeep—including repainting and repairs—influence final ROI. Investing in professional installation and regular maintenance ensures you recoup a significant portion of your siding costs when it’s time to sell.

Several materials can replace aluminum siding, each offering unique trade-offs. Vinyl siding requires minimal upkeep and resists fading, lasting up to 30 years. Wood siding provides classic warmth but demands regular painting or sealing. Fiber cement and composite siding offer exceptional durability and design flexibility, requiring minimal maintenance. Brick veneer and stucco create premium, long-lasting exteriors, but they come with higher upfront costs and increased installation complexity.
