Can I paint my home’s vinyl siding?

When vinyl siding is built, the color is baked into the siding. This means that, technically, you never have to paint it. That being said, years of sun exposure will cause your siding to fade until it no longer looks very appealing. When this happens, yes, you can paint your vinyl siding to refresh the exterior appearance of your home. Adding a vibrant coat of paint to your vinyl siding can improve the curb appeal of your home in Minnesota.

If you decide to paint your home’s vinyl siding, make sure you purchase the right kind of paint. Any paint you apply to your vinyl siding should contain acrylic and latex urethane so that it can properly adhere to the surface of the siding. It’s also important to make sure the paint you buy is durable and weatherproof, unless you want to paint your vinyl siding again next year. Buying expensive, high-quality exterior paint might cost you more now but it will save you money and time in the long term.

Make sure to paint your vinyl siding on a day with nice weather. It’s best to paint your siding on a warm, partly cloudy day. Intense heat, rain or wind can prevent your paint from adhering to the siding properly. You should also thoroughly clean your vinyl siding before painting to remove all dirt, grime and mold, which can also interfere with the paint’s adhesion. For the best results, it may be best to hire a professional painting company in Minnesota.

We found Gus and A-1 on the Better Bureau website. They responded quickly to our request for a bid and were very thorough in the explanation of their process and products. After getting bids from multiple companies, we chose A-1 for their professionalism and attention to our questions. Gus worked well with our insurance company and kept us informed. He was very helpful and patient with us as we picked out shingles and gutters. He kept us updated on schedules and set up a great team to complete our work. He came to our house as they worked and when they were done. He completed the inside work on our skylight himself and his gutter guy was amazing!

Our experience with Gus Pierce and A-1 Restoration was absolutely awesome! Not only was Gus persistent in dealing with our insurance company, but he did a great job in helping us select the replacement materials and he did a great job in arranging for and supervising the work crews. The work crews were hardworking, efficient and careful. They did an excellent job. We are very happy with the work! We highly recommend Gus and A-1 Restoration.

I highly recommend Gus and the A-1 Restoration team. They are true professionals. Gus was instrumental in working with our insurance company and helping us choose the best options for our new roof and windows. Every step of the way Gus communicated with us and the process was smooth. Our house looks great. Thank you Gus and Team.

Gus and his team did a fantastic job on my roof and gutter project. When the hail came through, we knew we’d have storm chasers knocking on our door but I already knew who I was calling. I was calling A-1 Restoration because of their local reputation and outstanding customer service. Can’t recommend these guys enough!
