I'm planning to paint the exterior of my house this summer, and I'm looking to hire a professional since I'm not interested in doing it myself. What should I keep in mind when evaluating different painters for the job? My house has aluminum siding, so any specific tips related to that would be great!

Absolutely! When getting quotes, make sure to ask about the type and brand of paint being used. Don't settle for the cheapest options; go for something high-quality. I've been in situations where the quotes specified the different levels of paint - like good, better, best - so choose the best one that fits your budget. It's worth it in the long run!
One important thing is to really focus on the prep work. I've had experience with both aluminum and galvanized steel siding, and the key to a good paint job is how well the surface is prepared. Make sure the painters power wash and sand the siding as necessary before applying any paint.
