Halifax Aluminum & Vinyl Siding Painting & Refinishing
If you have a house that is older, aluminum painting is an exterior painting service your home may need. Aluminum siding is an older version of siding that has been around since the 1950s. It is often used as the outer protective shell of the home because it’s so lightweight.
However, the downside is that aluminum oxidizes very easily, so the colors fade as it becomes chalky from the breakdown of the metal surface due to exposure to sunlight. While aluminum siding is a long-term exterior covering, the paint that coats the corrugated metal is not. A paint job may be needed for your home if your siding has not been treated or attended to in quite some time. Homeowners often see fading, which leads to the colors becoming old and dull. Because of this, the colors tend to have a dated look, giving a worn-out appearance.
If you want to improve your home’s curb appeal in a major way, exterior painting can make a big difference. Over the years, a home’s exterior can become weathered and aged due to exposure to the elements. This gives a home a dated appearance, especially when compared to newer homes with fresher exteriors.

The Good News: Aluminum Siding can be Fixed
The good thing about aluminum siding is that we can paint it any color you want with the proper prep work. This includes a good power wash with a tri-sodium phosphate and bleach solution that removes the chalking residue. Beyond Painting has the knowledge and equipment to do this for you in a way that won’t ruin your home.
Chalking can be found when you touch the paint surface and you have chalk left on the oils of your fingertips. If you try to paint over this on your own without the proper power wash, the paint will actually bubble, peel and fail within weeks. Instead of trying to do this on your own, Beyond Painting will use the power washing techniques and equipment to repair your home correctly the first time.

Does Your Vinyl Siding Need a Paint Job?
Vinyl siding is a popular, low maintenance, and cost-friendly option for homeowners. While vinyl is known to avoid peeling or chipping, it is certainly not invincible. It can warp in hot temperatures and crack in cold temperatures, and the general exposure to Halifax’s climate will inevitably leave its mark on your vinyl siding. It may be news to some homeowners that it’s even possible to paint your vinyl siding – an option that will not only have your house looking better than ever but also one that doesn’t break the bank. The long-lasting benefits of painting your vinyl siding are sprucing up weathered siding to look better than new, while simultaneously protecting your home using quality coating technology. Giving your vinyl siding a quality exterior paint job provides you with the opportunity to enhance your home’s durability and update your color scheme at the same time, all for a bargain compared to the cost of having the siding replaced.

1. Repair any damage to existing siding
If at all possible, dented pieces should be removed and replaced. This should be done without damaging the existing siding. It’s also important to examine all aspects of your siding such as soffits, gutters, and drainpipes, and repair as necessary before the painting process begins. It’s never a bad idea to call professional painters to do the job for you. They have the experience necessary to get the job done right the first time.
2. Clean the siding
This step is critical as it can determine whether or not your paint job is successful. The best way to do this is – of course – to hire a professional. Professional painting contractors use machines capable of heating water and directing it at the house at around 2,500 pounds of pressure. Even though you can rent equipment such as this, there are technique issues to consider as well. Professionals know how to handle the power washers so as not to loosen or dislodge the siding.
3. If necessary, apply a primer coat
If the paint on your siding has a chalky feel, it’s a good idea to apply a specialty primer coat that allows the paint layer to adhere to the surface. It’s important to consult a painting contractor on this step as failure to use a primer coat can cause major problems down the line.
4. Use the right tools
It is possible to paint aluminum siding with a brush or roller but the best application method is still a power sprayer. And while these machines are available for purchase or to rent, it’s still a good idea to hire a professional siding contractor who has experience with refinishing aluminum siding. Handling the spray machines can be more art than science and mistakes can become readily apparent if care isn’t taken.
5. Applying Painting
There are two ways to paint any residential exterior surfaces. We can either use oil or latex-based paint, or we use spray paint. Not all siding can be painted with conventional paint such as aluminum and vinyl sidings. Meanwhile, spray paint can be applied to all kinds of exterior surfaces, from your front doors, your wood deck, and fence, and to all kinds of sidings. The key is this: you want your house exterior looking as if it is brand new, not looking like it was just repainted. Spray painting for the house exterior is the best one to go because it will paint your house evenly, give glossy and brand new looks. It won’t peel and drips downward, creating saturated paint at the bottom of the surface. Spray paint is fast and easy to apply, unlike conventional paint.
Spray painting is the way to go for any house exterior surface. Although we can also apply conventional paint, we prefer to use spray paint for all surfaces since it is faster, easier, and better.
First of all, not all home exterior surfaces use the same consistency in the coating. Vinyl and aluminum and other metal siding would need to use a thicker spray coat, while wood and stucco would use softer consistency. We will formulate the right balance of coating from various paint sources according to the surface we are about to paint. When we spray the surface we paint, we have the method of spraying so it will not cause streak, drips, and imperfections in the result.
