"I am so thrilled with the painting Manny and the team completed. They did an excellent job from beginning to end. They took our painting needs for our home and brought it back to life. They were professional, clean, kind, courteous, detailed and went above and beyond to get our painting job done. They offered a fair price to complete all the projects. We loved them so much we continued to find more and more work for the team to do. We had our home exterior and interior painted, the deck repaired and refinished. Manny was able to match our unique interior paint colors from previous owners with flawless execution. He is the most knowledgeable, talented, fair, Professional and kind painter I have ever met. They are extremely hard working and will complete any job perfectly. He goes above and beyond what is expected. He makes any dream come true! We are so fortunate to have been blessed with their painting presence. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for top notch painting in any high end home! Sincerely, Karen Jeffery-Wheeler"

"Very responsive, great work and they got the work done on time. Used Urbina's Painting for full interior and exterior painting project and they were able to come in with the right number of people to do the job. Very professional and clean work - properly covered everything to protect furniture and flooring. They also did a great job preparing - filling holes, dents, fixing drywall issues etc. We were very happy with the final result."

Customers say: Quick response

"We first met Gregory when he was painting a family members house. We were immediately impressed with the care and expertise he brought to the job. When it came time to paint the outside of our 2000 SF home, we didnâ t hesitate to contact Gregory. We had an idea of our colors we wanted and from the beginning Gregory worked his magic to challenge us to insure we were completely happy with our choice. This was the beginning of a collaborative experience. Day 1 â Gregory and his team arrived promptly and updated us of the dayâ s schedule (scraping, sanding, prep, etc.). Day 2 â Power washing, masking and additional prep work. Days 3 to 7 - Painting, painting, painting, including staining of our new fence. Gregoryâ s team always took care to make sure we were included in every step of the way and went over and above with the â extrasâ . We already plan to use Gregory for another job next month. You will not be disappointed hiring Gregory and Transformational Color."

"Very easy to work with. I'd used them before but this time I got estimates from other contractors and was amazed how much more reasonable Cal Preserving was. The difference may be that the others pointed to additional steps that could be taken. Did Cal Preserving "miss" these things or recognize they weren't necessary--I'm inclined to believe the latter."

"Jonathan and his team also painted my bathroom, bedroom, and hallway; power washed the exterior of my house, deck, and garage before painting/staining, making all necessary repairs so that the painting/staining could be done. He works with a very competent carpenter/handyman. Jonathan checked in with me every step of the way. The crew was neat and orderly; the work performed as contracted; and the price was very affordable. I would wholeheartedly recommend him and Revival Painting. It was a pleasure to do business with someone so honest and committed to doing the best job."

"Great! Darwin and his crew painted almost the whole interior of our house and stained the floors we had sanded, to get it ready for sale. It was done quickly and well. No missed spots, drips, etc. They cleaned up too and covered or masked areas not to be painted. Our schedule changed a lot and they were flexible, holding off when we needed them to, for other contractors to work, but when called in again came right away and did their work. Darwin kept in touch daily and often texted me photos so I could see the progress, Our buyers wanted input on the color and gloss of the floor stain and he worked with them to get it the way they wanted but stay in our budget . Afterward he came back and did some minor fixes the other contractor never got to and hauled away way the trash the other contractor left behind. We were up against closing date and I really appreciated his attitude. He told me he would do whatever needed to help us get the house ready for the buyers. Great communication, professional work and super helpful! I would definitely hire him again."

Small jobs welcome

"The entire team was very professional and polite from the moment they entered our home and until they left. The appointment was easy to make, clear directions on what to do before techs arrived, on arrival they explained exactly what they was going to do, toured the house with us to insure nothing was missed, they were careful with furniture and personal property as well. They cleaned up after themselves, showed before and after photos, treated our home with care and consideration, as if it was their own. We can?t say enough good things about this company and our techs. They made us feel like a valued customer and our money is very important. We would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for paint projects, big or small. Thank you so much!!!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Scotts Valley, 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.
