"I cannot put into words how pleasant my experience was with John and Anna. As long as I am living in this home there will never be another contractor to complete work in my home. It was the single best experience I ever had hiring a contractor since living in PA. 1) Cleanliness- if not for his tools and equipment, you would never know he that John was there. He is EXTREMELY organized and neat, and very meticulous about how he cleans after himself. 2) Reliability- So many contractors either show up when they feel like it or treats your job like it’s not a priority because of other commitments. John was at our home like clockwork, on time everyday, and did not leave until the work was completed. We never had to worry about if he was coming, or, if he would work for 2 or 3 hours and then go home. He worked hard, communicated, and stayed engaged until the job was complete. 3) Technical Competency- When my wife and I bought our home in 2016, our children were 4 and 5 years of age. They absolutely destroyed our walls with fingerprints, dirt, grease, holes, and we also had settling cracks in the ceilings and walls. By the time John got finished with them our home looked brand new! The walls looked perfect and we instantly went from ashy to classy! What started out as a 1900 dollar project almost doubled because he was so good that we decided to let him do almost everything that needed to be done. John has a natural talent!! 4) Professionalism- John and Anna were so polite, patient and always respectful of our home and our concerns. John took personal pride in the work he was doing as if it was his home and if he didn’t like something, he did it again. If all else fails, I typed this whole review up from my iPhone lol!!!! That is how impressed my wife and I were with their work. I take comfort in knowing that we have found a contractor that has set the bar as far as expectations when hiring a professional!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Scranton, PA

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.
