"Rick Jamison Painting did an absolutely incredible job painting the exterior of my home. The job was no easy task, as it involved stucco repair work and wood repair work which proved quite complicated. Roughly 3 years ago we had the windows in my home replaced and as such, we had these new stucco vs old stucco rings around all 13 windows and doors. Rick Jamison painting completely got rid of all of all of these rings and then did an amazing painting job all without leaving a trace of debris or paint anywhere. My home was built in 1957 and it now looks like brand new construction. Awesome work."

"Diego was fantastic with the job from start to finish. He went above and beyond, including offering to paint my home on a day he was planning to take off, going to different paint store locations to get the right match, upgrading the paint quality, and sending me updates of progress throughout the day. Couldn't have asked for a better outcome of the paint job itself. Would 100% use again and recommend to anyone looking for quality, affordable painting services."

"Immediately I knew Jose’s Painting would be the company to not only bring my home back to life, but would protect it to SUSTAIN the impact of future elements, due to the proposal that was written with extensive care as to HOW they were going to get the house back into shape and WHAT they were going to use. My home has not been painted or stuccoed since the early 80's it needed TLC. This FAMILY OWNED company makes you feel like you are part of the family. Jose aka “Pops” had extensive details of how to make the project come together, while his son Jose had the modern perspective of how to keep the project in current times. The foremen, Elvis explained every detail whenever we had questions or requests. Allen, Gochi, and Ozzy showed up everyday with professionalism and care. The whole team is trustworthy and relatable. I will NOT use any other painting/stucco/interior/exterior specialist for any future project. The care and detail the team provided went above and beyond. WORTH every penny! This one is for the WIN!"

"I can’t say enough about James! He was well informed and helped me every step of the way while I was choosing a color for my home. My home looks great!! The job was done quickly and professionally a very stream lined project from beginning to the end. I was worried about a mess being left behind but the clean up was just as good as the quality paint job and stellar preparation. James has found a customer for life, I am so happy that I made the right choice. Thank You James."

"I was very impressed with the service I recieved. The painters thoroughly preped the surfaces and match the existing color with high quality paint that will last years. There were no drips or overspray and cleaned up everything when they completed the job. I highly recommend this company."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Santa Ana, CA

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.
