"Les Glover does and did everything. He replaced the bathroom medicine cabinet and sink with cabinet. He installed a new steel front door with all wood trim. Les replaced and repaired the siding on the house and garage. He repaired he soffit around the house. Les also painted the entire house and garage once all wood and siding was replaced or repaired. Les took care of many small details on his own, not needing to be told what to do. If something was not to his liking, he worked on it until it was. Les is very conscientious and is extremely reliable, not to mention that he is a very pleasant person to deal with. Even neighbors commented on his work ethic and abilities. The house looks brand new is now for sale."

"End result excellent. At first dry wall repair not great, but when I pointed it out to painter, he redid it without hesitation. Had to come back the next day and redo it, resulting in an extra day of work. Other than that, I was very satisfied and would recommend."

"Tony was E-X-E-C-E-L-L-E-N-T! He did everything he said he could do and some... Our ceiling turned out wonderful! We HIGHLY recommend him for any painting, taping touch up work. He was the 1st person to quote the job although he did not come in as the lower bid. I felt much more comfortable with him. He covered and took care of my personal items! Thank you Tony for everything you are the best!"

"These gentlemen did an EXCELLENT job with every task that I put in front of them. I know how to do most of this work myself, but my job does not allow me the time to do it without assistance, so I hired The Phoenix Group and I have never been more satisfied. They work efficiently for a fair price and clean up after themselves at the end of every day. Feel free to contact me at 563-529-9319 or at MikeMcManus@RuhlHomes.com and I would gladly welcome you into my home to check out their fantastic workmanship for yourself."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Thomson, IL

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.
