"After painstaking research and false starts, I found Construction Systems and glad I did! The crew was professional - defined as on time, detail oriented, efficient, thorough, patient in addressing my concerns, and top notch work. They ensured the gable work was excellent before calling it done. Joe’s estimate work was good and reasonably priced. Peace of mind knowing the job was priced well, done right, on time, and site cleaned up are invaluable."

"Ferney Leal is extraordinarily talented in all things construction and you won't find a contractor more dedicated to perfection and excellence. The large projects he has done in my 1923 home include custom wood bookcases and a bathroom remodel that included adding a shower to a half-bath. Ferney meticulously cut and matched the pattern of a complicated hexagonal tile and it came out perfect! Ferney listens to your desires and works hard to give you exactly what you want. He also thinks of design details that you don't, e.g. alerting me that the new shower was going to be too dark and recommending a waterproof light fixture in the shower stall ceiling. I call Ferney first for the projects that really matter, because I can tell he takes as much pride in my home as I do. "

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Washington DC, DC

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.
