"Great. They were very reachable and responsive. Gave us plenty of options and performed as promised. A year after the work, they made an appointment and came back out to inspect their work to make sure we were satisfied. I would highly recommend them for any painting or staining."

"I love this family business. The sons and dad are in business together and they have been doing it for a long time. I have been looking for a painter for a long time and I got a quote last year from another painting company. I didn’t move on my decision until my friend highly recommended John and James White. The father came and gave me a quote that was cheaper than the company that I got a quote from last year. Knowing that it will save money, my friend trusted their work, and also my husband got a bonus from his job helps me to decide to hire John and James White. James and his nephew came to my house on Friday June 9, 2023 to pressure wash the exterior walls and to clean off the dirt and things on walls. I asked James and his nephew to spray off a few extra spots at the house and they were willing to go above and beyond their job duty. On the Tuesday that they scheduled the painting, the painting team came early and started the work. They have teams that they send out to do the work. The team came every day from Tuesday to Friday early. They cleaned up afterward and I don’t have to worry about the clean up. I like the team they sent out. It was a father and his two sons. One of the son’s name was Cane. At first they color matched my house but then I found the paperwork from the builder and the HOA that shows my house color scheme. I immediately told them that morning but they already went and ordered the first color that matched the exterior. After many years of not painting the house, the color fades away so the color match is not always the exact color. It was really nice of them to abort the color match color and purchased new paints that goes with my original color scheme. If you live in an HOA neighborhood, you have to match the original house color if you don’t want to submit an architectural plan to get permission for the board of directors to change your color. I like how considerate they were to change the paint color for me at a loss for them. They got rid of several tubs of 5 gallons containers. I was home must of the time and was able to inspect the work and once in a while I would point out something that I thought needed to be done and the team did it to my satisfaction. My wood trim at the top of my house got termites so they had to replaced it. I appreciated that they told me so I can replace them. This was extra work and materials and I paid for them. I am glad to get it done so I don’t have to replace the wood in the future. When they were done, they were able to fulfill their work promise to me that we agreed for them to do. Every single agreement John and James White said they will do has been done. They even went above and beyond. For example, my door weather strip was old and needed to be done so I asked Cane if he would be willing to put it in for me if I got it from Home Depot. Cane did it. I would highly recommend John and James White. You won’t be disappointed. I am a happy customer."

In short, hire this company : ). Robert and Chris came out to quote the job and arrived on time. They provided a detailed quote by email. The email also included all of their license and insurance information which was great.

They focused on the interior portion of our job first. They arrived on time every day at 7:50am at our request. I could tell that they were going to do a good job since they spent a couple of days prepping the interior for painting. The prep work is critical for painting and these guys do not take short cuts on the prep work. The 50 year old bathroom cabinet paint was in bad shape. We decided to keep them since the wood structure was in good shape. The guys did a great job sanding and scraping the old paint off the cabinets and old door jambs. When I came home I was expecting to find a lot of dust due to the prep work but to my surprise there was none! Great job cleaning up. Every day they cleaned up and organized their area before they left which we really appreciated. They also painted an interior hallway that runs most of the length of the house. Since we did not paint the entire interior, it was important to match the old paint that is throughout the rest of the house. We were not expecting a perfect match. They took a small piece of the plaster wall for color matching and the color matched perfectly.

We chose a bright white for the interior trim which required three to four coats of paint. They took the time to do it right by applying thin coats instead of applying thick coats of paint which would have saved them time but it would have looked terrible. Needless to say the interior paint looks great.

When they moved out to the exterior, they arrived at 7:15 to get an early start. Robert helped us match the exterior paint of a house in a nearby neighborhood that we liked. We would have chosen a color that was too dark without his help. They power washed the house, trenched around the foundation of the house, caulking the seams in the siding, patched peeling stucco, patched old wood that could be saved, and spent several days scraping the old exterior paint. I was really glad to see them spend so much time just in the preparation to paint.  The siding on our house required careful masking where it meets the eves and again they took the time to do it right. They of course masked all of the windows, removed door and window screens. They also took down old gutters, light fixtures, unused television cable, and pulled all the old nails that had been added over the years to hang stuff so that they can properly paint underneath all of that stuff.

Once the prep work was done, the painting actually goes on very fast since they can spray the main color on. They did some of the best work on our garage doors. I was thinking we would just have to replace them but they honestly made them look like new which is nice because I don't think we could get doors like these originals that they saved and the design matches the rest of the house. Again we have zero complaints with the exterior paint work. The house looks like new thanks to the diligent preparation.

One thing we would do different is to get Robert involved with the color selection earlier. We stressed over the color of the house and he has a great eye and made us feel confident that we were not doing anything silly. He really is a color expert so take advantage of his advice. He led us to the perfect color for our front door. He showed us three entirely different colors to choose from that would work with our main house color, some we would have never thought of ourselves. We picked one and he was right on the money, it looks great.

Chris ran the job smoothly and Abraham was the lead painter on site. The entire paint crew works hard and we couldn't be more satisfied with all of the work.

"Perez Painting was contracted to resurface and paint our patio structure and wooden features on the front of the house. All interactions went very smooth - from defining and quoting the project, down to timely execution of the 2 day project. As well, they went over and above the contact to paint other small areas that were not included in the original quote. They wanted everything to match. Their team worked very efficiency to get the project done on time. We have more painting projects in the schedule. Perez Painting will be the only call I will make. My wife and I were very happy with the results."

"The large paint crew came early and finished my one story house by 4pm. They painted the stucco, trim, siding and gates. The work was neat and professional, and the crew polite and cooperative. Jame's price was excellent and lower than the other two estimates I obtained. My house looks wonderful!!"

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Seal Beach, 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.
