All work was done at a high level of quality and in a timely manner. Communication for planning each of the tasks easy and reliable. Contractor arrived on time. I highly recommend for power washing and paint jobs."

"June 30, 2022 - This is a follow-up of my July 2021 review: Several months after Chesapeake painted and made exterior repairs to the front bay window of my home, and after my initial review on Angie's List, I contacted the company because the bay window repairs were disintegrating as a result of shoddy workmanship. Phi (project manager) quickly came out to inspect, scheduled a date to redo the work, and said that he was sending a different team to do the work correctly. However, the weather and subsequent scheduling conflicts moved the rework to the spring of 2022. Phil sent the team of Willy and Emilio: they were punctual, professional, very pleasant, and their craftsmanship is excellent. This is the work that I expected the first time and Chesapeake delivered the second time around. Thank you Phil for always always responding to my concerns and frustrations, and to Chesapeake for standing by their work and making thing right. D. Atkinson Bowie, MD July 2021 review: The company did an excellent job scheduling a date for my exterior house painting and they also worked with me to resolve an issue I had with the project's final cost. The office staff is very professional and pleasant. I might have given a higher rating, but my experience with the crew was not what I had expected given the great reviews I read from other customers. I was disappointed with the crew that was sent to paint my house. They arrived about an hour late. I was able to communicate with only one person on the crew as the other members did not speak english. The only english-speaking member left the job for several hours to pick up composite sheets to replace wood panels. During this time I noticed that the painters did not place drop cloths on my deck or on two lower roofs. As a result, paint was dripping onto my deck and the lower roofs. I had to search for a foreign language translation app on my cell phone so I could communicate with the crew to tell them to use drop cloths as well as to explain a few other issues and concerns. Frustrated, I contacted Chesapeake Painting to complain and a manger was sent to my home. The manager arrived about the same time the crew member returned from picking up the composite. The manager apologized to me about the problems and he spoke with the crew member about my concerns and the painting job in general. After the job was complete, the next day I noticed areas that needed more paint and the company came back to apply more paint. However, a couple of days later, I noticed the same area still needed more paint or sanding. There were also areas where I eventually noticed where the work detail could be better. In fairness, I didn't call the company back to resolve as I just wanted to move on. The overall paint job was good. Would I hire Chesapeake Painting again? I'm not certain. Maybe this crew had a bad day at the office as we all sometimes do. But if I decide to hire the company again to paint the interior of my home, I would need a different crew or the crew(s) that received the excellent work reviews."

"Excellent painters. I hired them to paint the main areas of my house and was delighted with their work. Then added another area, as well as the outside of the house. Mr. Spiro was on the job himself. He is a perfectionist and he and his crew made the house look brand new. They were also very neat about their work, no spilling or even over runs from one area to another. I can't praise them enough. I only wish I could hire them in my new residence in Florida."

"Joe immediately came out and gave us an estimate. Based on other estimates we received, Joe’s estimate was in line. When we decided to go with them they were able to send a crew over in a very timely manner. The crew was headed by Hector. The crew was friendly and very competent. Joe stopped by each day to supervise the work. The crew cleaned up each day and replaced all of our furniture at the end of the job. The painting was excellently completed. We have already recommended the company to several colleagues who were looking for painters. Joe, Hector and the rest of the crew are true professionals."

"Restart his crew were able to paint my one story vinyl sided home and update it from its dingy dark yellow to a fresh Agreeable gray. He was very knowledgeable about his Sherwin Williams Preferred products and was able to convince me (a hard bargain) in a more modern refreshing update. It was a pleasure to work with him and the Crew, very punctual and I love how he feeds his crew!! Looking forward to working with him on my investment properties this spring"

"MG Good Painting was excellent. I had a prior contractor that made a mess out of my home and left it with awful spackling and spotty painted walls. After calling MG Good Painting, the estimator was out the very next day, gave an extremely fair price for the work that needed done. The painters came out the same week and did a perfect job on my home."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Shady Side, MD

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.
