CertaPro Painters® of Palatine
CertaPro offers Professional Vinyl & Aluminum Siding Services
Aluminum and vinyl siding can be successfully painted. However, oftentimes it is not something that most homeowners want to handle on their own. It’s best performed by local professional exterior painting team who understand the how to do the work right, with a beautiful durable finish that you will enjoy for years to come. In order to create a beautiful finish on your vinyl or aluminum siding, it is imperative that the proper preparation and coatings are used. The proper steps to applying a new coat of paint to vinyl or aluminum siding are very similar:
1 Power Wash
Wash the vinyl or aluminum to clear off excess dirt, mold, and debris. For aluminum, there will be some residual chalkiness, which is normal.
2 Prep
Our team will carefully cover all items on your house that are not meant to be painted. We will cover the ground with drop cloths to protect it from overspray.
3 Paint
Once everything is prepped, your CertaPro team will apply premium-quality paint to your home’s exterior, creating a uniform finish.
4 Clean
At the end of each day, the painting crew cleans up around your home, ensuring any paint chips are removed and all materials are stored neatly away.
5 Inspect
After our own inspection, your job site supervisor will walk you through the space, giving you the opportunity to review our work and to provide any initial feedback.

Common Questions About Siding Painting Projects
Can you paint vinyl siding?
Yes, most types of siding can be painted successfully with good results. Attention to detail in the prep and application process is important to get an extraordinary end result.
How do you prepare siding for painting?
First, the siding is washed with power washing equipment. After washing, loose paint or debris is scraped from the surface, and imperfections are patched. Light sanding is sometimes done as a prep step to ready the surface for a primer coat. Once the primer is applied and dry, the surface is prepped and ready for new paint to be applied.
What kind of paint do you use on vinyl siding?
For most siding painting projects we use acrylic, vinyl-safe paints. Using the right paint product is very important for siding painting projects.
Will painting cause vinyl siding warping?
Painting vinyl siding with a color that is significantly darker than the original shade can cause warping. It’s best to not choose a color that is much darker than the original siding for this reason.
