How We Handle Your Project

We start with a walkthrough at your property. You show us what needs painting, we assess the surfaces, and we discuss your timeline and color preferences. No pressure, just information.

Next comes the written estimate. Everything’s spelled out – materials, labor, timeline, cleanup. You know exactly what you’re paying for before we start.

On project day, we protect your belongings and landscaping first. Then comes surface preparation – the step that makes or breaks a paint job. We scrape, sand, prime, and patch properly because shortcuts here cost you money later. Finally, we apply the paint in proper coats and clean up completely when we’re done.

Interior Exterior Painting Services

Complete Interior and Exterior Services

We handle both interior and exterior painting for residential and commercial properties in Des Plaines. Interior work includes walls, ceilings, trim, doors, and cabinets. Exterior services cover siding, trim, decks, fences, and any other painted surfaces.

Every project includes proper surface preparation, quality primer when needed, and professional-grade paint application. We use materials designed for Illinois weather conditions – paints that expand and contract with temperature changes and resist moisture damage.

You also get color consultation if you want it. Sometimes you know exactly what you want. Other times you need someone to help you think through how colors will look in different light or how they’ll work with your existing finishes.

Most exterior house painting takes 3-5 days depending on size and weather conditions. Interior projects usually wrap up in 2-3 days for average-sized homes. The timeline depends on how much prep work the surfaces need and how many coats of paint are required. We always give you a realistic timeframe upfront and keep you updated if weather or other factors affect the schedule. Rush jobs often mean cut corners, so we build in enough time to do the work properly.
We use high-quality exterior paints designed for Midwest weather conditions. Brands like Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore make paints that handle Illinois temperature swings and moisture levels. The specific product depends on your surface material – different formulations work better on wood, vinyl, or fiber cement siding. We always discuss paint options during the estimate so you understand what you’re getting and why we recommend certain products for your specific situation.
Yes, we provide detailed written estimates at no charge. The estimate includes a breakdown of materials, labor, surface preparation requirements, and timeline. We measure everything carefully and inspect surfaces to identify any prep work needed. This way you get an accurate picture of the project scope and cost. We don’t do quick ballpark numbers that change later – the estimate reflects what the actual job will cost.
We cover plants, outdoor furniture, and walkways before starting any exterior work. Drop cloths and plastic sheeting protect surfaces from paint drips and overspray. For plants close to the house, we use lightweight coverings that won’t damage them if left on for a few days. We also remove or relocate outdoor furniture when possible. At the end of each day, we clean up any materials or debris so your property stays neat throughout the project.
We monitor weather forecasts closely and plan accordingly. If rain is expected, we adjust the schedule to work on preparation tasks or move to covered areas when possible. We never apply paint when surfaces are wet or when rain is imminent – it compromises the finish and durability. If unexpected weather delays the project, we communicate with you immediately about the revised timeline. Most exterior projects have some flexibility built in for weather contingencies.
Yes, we warranty our workmanship for one year on all painting projects. This covers issues like peeling, cracking, or other problems that result from application errors. Normal wear and tear isn’t covered, but if the paint fails due to improper preparation or application, we’ll fix it at no charge. We also help you understand what to expect from your paint job in terms of longevity so you can make informed decisions about maintenance and future repainting.
