Exterior Painting in Bolingbrook, IL

Painting Bolingbrook house exteriors

Every siding material takes paint differently, and our prep changes with it. Wood gets scraped, sanded and primed where it is bare. Faded aluminum gets scrubbed to take off the chalky film, because paint over chalk peels. Once the siding is ready we caulk the open joints, paint the trim, soffit and fascia, and finish with the doors and garage door.

We work in Bolingbrook every week, reaching it on I-55, Route 53, Boughton Road and Weber Road. If your house has aluminum siding that leaves white powder on your hand, it is a strong candidate for paint instead of tear-off, and the wash is what makes that work. If it has hardboard siding, we look hard at the bottom edges and the ends of each board, where water swells it first, and swollen pieces get replaced with the cut edges sealed. Each finding goes on the written estimate before you decide anything.

What we include in Bolingbrook

Chalk scrubbed off aluminum

Faded aluminum siding is scrubbed until the powder is gone, then primed where it needs it so the new paint bonds.

Hardboard edges checked

Bottom edges and butt ends of hardboard siding are inspected, swollen pieces replaced and every cut edge sealed.

Wood scraped and primed

Loose paint on wood trim and siding comes off, edges are sanded, and bare wood is primed before the finish coats.

Soffit panels and fascia boards

Soffit panels and fascia boards are cleaned and painted, with rotted fascia replaced before it gets a coat.

Garage doors and entry doors

Steel garage doors are degreased and painted, and entry doors get a durable finish in the sheen you choose.

Covered and cleaned up

Shrubs, walks and the driveway are covered while we prep and paint, and the site is cleaned up every evening.

How the job goes

We look at the siding up close during a free on-site estimate and note what each wall needs. You get that in writing: the surfaces, the prep, the product and the coats. If a hardboard panel crumbles once we start and it was not on the estimate, we stop, price it in writing and wait for your approval. Painting happens on dry days above 50 degrees, and the last step is a walkthrough with you around the whole house.

FAQ

Exterior Painting in Bolingbrook: questions

Can aluminum siding be painted?

Yes, and it often makes more sense than replacing it. The key is a thorough wash to remove the chalk, primer where the factory finish has worn through, and two coats of good exterior paint.

Do I need a permit for exterior painting in Bolingbrook?

Painting alone generally does not need one. If the job includes replacing siding across a wall or other building work, we check with the Village of Bolingbrook and pull what it requires.

When will my house get painted?

Exterior work runs spring through fall on dry days above 50 degrees. Once you approve the estimate, we give you a start date and book around the days we said.

Do you paint in other towns near Bolingbrook?

Yes, we also cover Romeoville, Woodridge, Darien and Lemont.

How do I set up an estimate?

Call or text (815) 585-1750. If you send a close-up photo of the siding, we can tell you what we expect to find before we come out.
