Professional exterior painting that protects your home and looks great for years, not just months.
Your home’s exterior takes a beating from Illinois weather. Brutal winters, humid summers, and everything in between. When exterior painting is done right, you stop worrying about peeling, cracking, or fading paint every few years.
You get real protection. The kind that keeps moisture out of your siding and prevents the costly damage that comes when water finds its way behind failing paint. Your home looks sharp, maintains its value, and you’re not dealing with touch-ups or full repaints way sooner than you should be.
Good exterior painting also means your weekends stay yours. No more staring at peeling paint thinking about the project you need to tackle. No more explaining to neighbors why your house looks like it’s been through a few too many seasons without attention.
Metanoia Construction has been handling exterior painting projects in Crete and the surrounding area for years. The difference isn’t just in the paint we use—it’s in the work you don’t see.
Most painting problems start with shortcuts in preparation. We scrape, sand, prime, and repair properly because we know what happens when you don’t. You end up with paint that looks good for six months, then starts failing.
We’re licensed, insured, and we show up when we say we will. Our crew respects your property, cleans up after themselves, and treats your home like it matters—because it does.
First, we walk your property and assess what needs attention. Not every surface requires the same approach, and we’ll explain what we’re seeing and why it matters. You get a detailed estimate that covers materials, labor, and timeline.
Before any paint touches your house, we handle the prep work. That means scraping loose paint, sanding rough spots, filling cracks, and priming bare wood or metal. We protect your landscaping, windows, and anything else that shouldn’t get paint on it.
The actual painting happens in proper conditions—not when it’s too hot, too cold, or too humid. We apply paint in thin, even coats and give each coat time to cure properly. When we’re done, we walk through everything with you and clean up completely. Your property should look better than when we arrived, not like a construction zone.
You get complete surface preparation, which is where most contractors cut corners. We remove loose or failing paint, sand surfaces smooth, fill cracks and holes, and apply primer where needed. This isn’t optional—it’s what makes paint last.
We use quality exterior paints designed for Illinois weather. These aren’t the cheapest options at the paint store, but they’re formulated to handle temperature swings, UV exposure, and moisture better than basic paints. The difference shows up in how long your paint job looks good.
Our service includes protecting your property during the work. Drop cloths, plastic sheeting, and careful masking keep paint where it belongs. We also handle minor exterior repairs that affect paint adhesion—loose boards, small holes, or damaged caulking that could let moisture behind your new paint.
