Professional painting services that protect your home and look great for years.
You want paint that doesn’t start peeling after two winters. You want colors that don’t fade by summer’s end. You want contractors who show up when they say they will and finish the job right.
That’s exactly what happens when the prep work is done correctly and quality materials meet experienced hands. Your exterior paint becomes a real barrier against Oak Park’s weather extremes. Your interior walls look smooth and even, not like someone rushed through with a roller.
The difference shows up in how long your paint lasts and how good your home looks. No touch-ups needed in six months. No embarrassing peeling sections when neighbors walk by. Just professional results that make you glad you invested in doing it right.

First, you get a detailed estimate that covers everything. No surprises later about “extra prep work” or material costs. The estimate includes surface preparation, primer, paint, and cleanup.
Next comes the prep work that most contractors skip. Surfaces get properly cleaned, scraped, and primed. Trim gets caulked. Drop cloths go down before any paint comes out. This stage determines how long your paint job will last.
Then the actual painting happens with quality brushes and rollers, not whatever was cheapest at the hardware store. Two coats minimum on everything. Clean lines around trim and fixtures. Daily cleanup so your home doesn’t look like a construction zone.
The final walkthrough ensures every detail meets your expectations before the job is considered complete.
Interior painting includes wall preparation, primer application, and two finish coats using low-VOC paints that won’t make your house smell like chemicals for weeks. Trim work gets hand-brushed for clean, professional lines. Furniture gets moved and protected, not painted around.
Exterior painting starts with power washing and surface inspection. Loose paint gets scraped off completely. Wood trim receives proper caulking and priming. The final paint application uses weather-resistant products designed for Midwest climate conditions.
Both services include color consultation if you need help choosing shades that work with your home’s architecture and lighting. Oak Park’s mix of historic and modern homes requires different approaches, and we adjust our techniques accordingly.
All work comes with cleanup that leaves your property cleaner than when our crew arrived.
