"Scott and team did a fabulous job of painting our home. Prior to painting, his team patched cracks and holes in the walls. Scott personally came out three times prior to his crew's arrival - first to estimate the job and then twice to put paint samples on the walls. In all, we used six different colors which was no problem. Scott also showed up on the day of painting to ensure the crew knew exactly what to do. The painters were very professional and cordial. We loved the colors and workmanship. The house was left as clean as when they started and they took great care in ensuring all furniture was covered appropriately. We have not found any mistakes in the paint job or spills on the floor, etc. Scott's quote was only slightly lower than the final bill due to the trim touch-up work taking a little longer than anticipated. If I had one complaint, Scott was a little slow at times in responding to emails but in the end, would always respond. For a great painter at a reasonable cost, please give Scott and his team a call. He is great to work with."

"Once again, Colorstyle has provided my family with great quality work at an exceptional price. I first used them about 10 years ago to paint the exterior of my home. It turned out so well that they ended up doing several other houses on my block and the next block up because all my neighbors wanted to know who painted our home. Most recently, I used them to paint some interior rooms, tile, and complete a basement finishing project in a house I was selling, and a complete interior paint job on our new house. They provided excellent advice on economical but effective improvements for selling the house. They just finished removing all the wallpaper and painting the entire interior of our new house to include trim and ceilings and it looks great. They were accommodating of changes we made during the project and quite a bit of missing or damaged trim. They also repaired a damaged ceiling. They were the lowest bid of three we received, and the work was very good. I always recommend them to our friends."

"Their price was very reasonable, they handled the entire process in a very professional manner and were quick to answer any questions or concerns I had. I am very fussy about who I hire for projects and don't give excellent reviews unless the company really deserves an excellent review. I highly recommend Craftsmen and will definitely be calling them for other home projects."

"We had our main floor, finished basement and bathrooms painted with the ceilings done as well. They initially estimated the work to take 2 days, but it was clear after the first day it would take longer. The first day, they were rather slow and sloppy: obvious missed spots, some paint on the trim, some on the floor, and they painted over a drywall anchor instead of removing and patching it, etc. When these were pointed out they were fixed, except the trim. The second day, they painted much more carefully, but slowly. The third day they brought in a third guy and the work was completed and the quality was more what I was expecting. There were still some spots to be touched up, but overall it was satisfactory. My biggest annoyance (other than being out of the house for an extra day with two small kids), was the sloppiness. They didn't drape properly when painting the ceilings so there are tiny white speckled on the railing, our stove, some of our furniture, some of my son's toys...its not permanent damage, but I expected better. I feel they did a slightly better job than we could have done and we are not a professional painters. Maybe he had a new assistant the first two days who needed a bit more training...but if we had it to do over, we'd very likely go with someone else."

"We hired JJ Hanson Painting to remove wallpaper from a 2 story wall, as well as patch and paint an entryway, hallway, bathroom and family room. Jeff helped with paint selections, was extremely easy to work with and helpful. Randy and Astara did most of the painting and they were fun, professional and efficient. I have already given their name to friends and will definitely call them for future projects."

"This is the second time we have used Nonhof Painting solutions. The first time Grant Nonhof painted our entire main level and second floor hallway. This time Grant painted our kitchen and hall way ceilings. Grant is very professional and competitively priced. Grant does great work! He gets the job done promptly, leaves no mess when he is done. I would highly recommend Nonhof Painting solutions for your next painting job! <br>"

"Joel did an excellent job on a very difficult task. The paint was peeling off in large strips from the back hall for unknown reasons. The backdoor paint had bubbles in it (60 year old door). The garage needed quite a bit of scraping. Joel worked quickly and for a very reasonable price to scrape and sand and prepare all these difficult surfaces with primer and to paint them. After a few weeks of very humid weather there were some bubbles reforming on the back door. Joel came back immediately when I called about it and fixed them, no charge. We have employed him before and he always does a good job."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Princeton, MN

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.
