"Entire project went great! Entire exterior of home painted. Omar is great to work with, listened to my desires and answered my questions. He was available when I called and even if not he returned calls immediately. His price was outstanding in comparison to other painters who bid on the project. He cleaned up beautifully after the project. I would definitely hire him again. I could not be happier."

"The owner went out of his way to accommodate our price limit, he was most gracious. His workers were the most professional, way more than we expected or anticipated. They should be praised for their hard, long hours of service. We are most happy with our new paint job."

"I highly recommend Ruben and Roman Painting. He called me back the same day I requested and neither of the other 2 painters bothered. He made an appointment for that same day, came early and provided me with a detailed work order. He did a masterful job painting all of our kitchen cabinets. The doors were all taken off hinges, sanded, treated and spray painted. He is an artist with tape and plastic and concocted a labyrinth of plastic so as not to let the sprayer touch floor, ceiling or walls. He also offers a warranty on touch-up and overlooked, minimal adjustments. He returned 2 weeks later and completed some minor touches. All in all, my wife and I are exceptionally pleased with our final product, dark cabinets magically turned into a butter cream, slick finish. Ruben does what he says in the time he estimates and for the price quoted. The clean up was diligent and timely and his helpers were pro and friendly. My nickname for him is Picasso. Dan Novak"

"TM did an awesome job painting all the interior walls of our home. They painted 8 rooms and 2 bathrooms in two days which exceeded our expectations. Their work quality is excellent and they moved and protected our furniture and floors to prevent any paint damage. Also did a thorough clean up after the painting was completed. We highly recommended them."

"Ivan and his crew were absolutely wonderful! They not only painted our entire house a new color, but they also removed and replaced window frames that were rotten or termite damaged. All of their work was top notch: professional, friendly, on-time and with excellent communication skills. My wife and I are so pleased with the job Ivan and his crew did, that we highly recommend him to anyone who needs their house painted; you will not be disappointed, I promise you."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in San Anselmo, CA

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.
