Here's How We Handle It

First, we assess your home’s exterior surfaces and identify any issues that need attention before painting. This includes checking for loose or peeling paint, wood damage, or areas that need caulking.

Next comes surface preparation – the step that separates professional results from amateur work. We scrape, sand, and clean all surfaces. We prime bare wood and spot-prime areas where old paint has been removed. This prep work is what makes paint adhere properly and last.

Then we apply your chosen paint system using proper techniques and equipment. We protect your landscaping, clean up daily, and inspect our work before calling the job complete. You get a walkthrough to ensure everything meets your expectations before we pack up.

What Your Project Includes

Your exterior painting project includes complete surface preparation, not just slapping paint over existing problems. We handle scraping, sanding, caulking, and priming as needed to create a surface that paint can properly bond to.

We use premium exterior paints designed for Illinois weather conditions. These aren’t the cheapest options available, but they’re the ones that perform when temperature swings and moisture try to destroy your paint job.

You’ll also get protection for your property during the work. We cover plants, outdoor furniture, and walkways. We clean up daily because we know you still need to live in your home while we’re working. The goal is getting great results without turning your life upside down for weeks.

Most exterior painting projects in Wheaton take 3-7 days depending on your home’s size and condition. Weather plays a role since we can’t paint in rain or extreme temperatures. We’ll give you a realistic timeline upfront and keep you updated if weather causes delays. The prep work usually takes longer than the actual painting, but that’s where quality happens. Rushing through surface preparation is the fastest way to get a paint job that fails early.
High-quality acrylic latex paints perform best in Illinois because they handle temperature changes without cracking. We typically use paint systems from manufacturers like Sherwin-Williams or Benjamin Moore that are specifically formulated for Midwest weather conditions. These paints cost more upfront but save money long-term because they don’t need frequent repainting. Cheap paint might save you a few hundred dollars initially, but you’ll spend more when you have to repaint in 2-3 years instead of 7-10.
Yes, we handle common surface repairs as part of proper preparation. This includes filling nail holes, caulking gaps around trim, and replacing small sections of damaged wood siding. Major structural repairs are handled separately, but we’ll identify any issues during our initial assessment. Most exterior painting projects need some level of repair work – it’s rare to find a home where you can just start painting over existing surfaces and get professional results.
We cover plants, outdoor furniture, and walkways with drop cloths before starting work. Overspray and paint drips are inevitable, even with careful application, so protection is essential. We also trim back vegetation that’s too close to surfaces being painted – paint needs space to be applied properly. At the end of each day, we remove any paint drops from protected surfaces and ensure your property looks neat. Most homeowners are surprised how clean we keep the work area.
We warranty our workmanship for two years, which covers issues like peeling or adhesion problems that result from improper application. This doesn’t cover normal wear or damage from extreme weather events, but it does cover paint failure due to our work. The paint manufacturer also provides their own warranty on the product itself. We’ll provide warranty details in writing with your estimate so you know exactly what’s covered and for how long.
Exterior painting costs vary based on your home’s size, condition, and paint quality selected. Most single-family homes in Wheaton range from $8,000-$15,000 for complete exterior painting. Homes needing extensive prep work or repairs cost more. We provide detailed written estimates that break down labor, materials, and any additional work needed. The cheapest bid isn’t always the best value – compare what’s included in each estimate, not just the bottom line number.
