Old siding makes a house look tired. We power wash, scrape, prime and paint it so your house looks new from the street. Wood, vinyl, cement board, we handle it all.
Siding painting in Joliet starts at $349 for a small exterior wall, and a typical 1,500 sq ft house runs about $3,200. That price covers power washing, scraping loose paint, priming bare spots and applying two coats of premium exterior paint. Vanguard Painting works on wood, vinyl, aluminum and cement board siding across Joliet and the rest of Will County.

Joliet homes have a mix of siding types, and our weather throws different challenges at each one.
Freezing winters and humid summers are tough on paint. We use 100% acrylic paint that expands and contracts with the siding.
Older Joliet homes have wood siding that can rot at the bottom edges. We replace damaged boards before painting.
Vinyl needs a special primer so the paint adheres and doesn't peel. We use vinyl-safe products on every siding painting job in Joliet.
Exterior siding painting has a specific sequence. Here's how we do it.
We check the siding condition, look for rot, peeling and areas that need extra prep.
All siding washed to remove dirt, mildew and loose paint.
Loose paint scraped off and edges sanded smooth.
Seams, gaps and cracks filled with exterior caulk.
All bare wood, cement board or vinyl primed.
First full coat applied with sprayer or roller, depending on the surface.
Second coat applied once the first has dried completely.
Exterior cleaned up, then we walk the property with you.
Different siding materials need different approaches. Here's what we work with most often in Joliet.

Old cedar, clapboard and pine. We scrape, sand, prime and paint. Rot is repaired first.

Vinyl can be painted with the right prep. We use vinyl-safe primer and paint that won't warp the panels.

These surfaces absorb paint fast. We prime them properly so the top coat doesn't disappear into the board.
Our shop is in Melrose Park, but we cover all of Will County. Siding painting is something we do through spring, summer and fall. The crew knows how to handle ladders, high walls and tricky roof lines. They work safely and they work clean.
We protect your landscaping and your driveway. Drop cloths on the ground, plastic over bushes, and we clean up everything when we're done.
While we're painting siding, a lot of people ask about exterior painting for their brick, trim or deck and fence staining.

Siding problems are visible from the street. Here's what people complain about and what it looks like when we finish.
Paint on siding gets brittle from sun exposure and starts flaking off in patches.
UV rays fade siding paint. The house looks old even if the paint is only a few years old.
Shaded areas of siding grow mildew that looks like dark streaks.
Proper prep + quality paint = a finish that lasts 7-10 years on siding.
Two coats of 100% acrylic paint in the color you choose, with even coverage across the whole house.
Power washing removes dirt and mildew before we paint. The house looks new from the street.
No peeling paint, no faded color, no streaks. Just a house that looks like it's been maintained.
