"Absolutely amazing. Perfect customer service from the beginning. Terry spent the time to review what I was looking to be done. He spent the necessary time reviewing the project and made recommendations from a professional point of view. The price was perfect and the time to complete the job was right on. Before the start of the job he came over and obtained the paint samples and to review the job to make sure of any changes or possible foreseeable problems. On the day of the job Terry and his crew showed up he and his team went straight to work. When done the house looked AMAZING!! Every detail was perfect, Every request fulfilled. Terry Lennon Painting is who I would recommend to anyone asking for a Professional House Painting service ."

"Top Quality Painting is a pleasure to work with. Nathan is very helpful in selecting colors and color matching. They provided fair pricing and timely service with great attention to all our questions and concerns. We are extremely happy with the exterior painting and will call upon Nathan once again for kitchen cabinet painting. Nathan and his team are meticulous in preparing and painting your home. His talented and friendly crew began by pressure washing then caulking all cracks and trim work. They also willingly provided an additional coat of paint for a sun dried West facing wall. We agree with an earlier review in that Top Quality Painting is a go to company to help homeowners in keeping their home looking good. Nathan makes the contractor experience a pleasant and rewarding process. Do not fret, as Nathan too wants your home to look its best."

"My neighbor got his house painted by Jay’s. I could see the nice job that was done on their house so hired him to do mine. I did not even bother getting other bids. Jay and his crew were very efficient. From the power washing to masking, scraping, caulking and spraying, the job was done in less than 3 days. Jay was back and forth but monitored his guys closely and made them keep to his standards. Afterwards they cleaned up everything and put things back that had to be moved. I can highly recommend Jay’s painting and will probably hire them to do some inside work for me down the road. I’ve had several neighbors complement my house color which is a pinkish coral. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea but Jay didn’t judge my choice or try to sway me to a different color. Jay is a nice guy and we got along great. You will like him too."

"The team did a great job. kept the yard secure after hours, and the finished product is simply beautiful. A high quality job and was totally competitive with the price I received from a Fences only company. I had contracted for the removal of an arbor and door framing that had dry rot. The finished product is perfect, they matched the paint perfectly. I highly recommend this team, and look forward to having them do my next project."

"Tom and his crew painted a set of rooms (bedrooms, bathroom, hallway). Tom's suggestion of gray walls and white trim and ceilings worked beautifully. His crew did a masterful job of prepping the rooms, including repairing portions of the ceiling. Workers arrived on time, worked steadily, and were pleasant. Tom kept me informed throughout the process. The price was fair and reasonable. I can see myself having him back to paint the other rooms over the next year or so."

"Herb and Bob came to my home in a timely manner and went about their business for painting the kitchen cabinets and one small wall.  Also, while Herb did the interior Bob painted all the exterior trim.  They showed up on time, and did a wonderful job.  The neighbors complimented Bob as he was painting too.  Both were very professional and did not waste time or paint.  It all looks great.  Would recommend to anyone.

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