Darien, DuPage County

Exterior Painting in Darien

We paint siding, trim and the garage door so the front of the house looks finished and stays protected. We cover Darien for full exteriors and partial jobs.

Exterior painting for Darien homes

Darien is on our regular route for exterior painting, from siding and trim to soffit, fascia, doors, garage doors, shutters, porches and railings. We wash the house first, scrape anything that is lifting, sand the edges and prime every bare patch of wood. If a board is rotted, it gets replaced. Caulk is renewed at every open seam, and then the finish coats go on.

We reach Darien on I-55 and Route 83, working across 75th Street and Cass Avenue, and the city sits in DuPage County between Willowbrook, Woodridge and Westmont. If your house has an attached garage facing the street, that door takes up a big share of the front, and it is often the most weathered surface on the house. A steel or wood garage door needs its own prep: cleaning, sanding any rust or bare spots, and the right primer before paint. We paint the panels in order and leave the door down until it dries, so the sections do not stick or scuff.

Exterior Painting by ONIT Solutions

Included in a Darien exterior repaint

Garage door done right

Steel or wood panels get cleaned, sanded and primed where bare, then painted and left to dry before the door runs.

Washing

We clean the whole exterior first so the paint bonds to siding and trim, not grime.

Scraping and sanding

Peeling paint is removed back to a sound edge and the edges are sanded so they disappear.

Bare wood primer

Exposed wood is primed before the finish coats so it takes paint evenly and holds it.

Trim and siding repairs

Rotted trim, sills and siding boards are replaced, primed and caulked, never painted over.

Front door and shutters

The entry door and shutters are sanded and coated in a finish suited to sun and handling.

What to expect from the estimate on

We look at the house in person and write up a free estimate covering each surface, the prep, the product and the coats. If we open up something during prep that needs repair, you see the price in writing before we do it. We plan around rain and cold and book around the days we said. Once the last coat is dry, we walk the outside with you and take care of any spot you want touched up.

FAQ

Exterior Painting in Darien: questions

Do you paint in other towns near Darien?
Yes. We also take exterior jobs in Burr Ridge, Downers Grove and Lemont.
Can you paint just the garage door and trim?
Yes. A partial job gets the same prep and the same written estimate as a full repaint.
Does Darien need a permit for exterior painting?
Paint alone generally does not. If we end up replacing siding or a porch, we check what the city requires and pull the permit before starting that work.
How soon can you start?
Exterior painting runs spring to fall on dry days above 50 degrees. Call or text (815) 585-1750 and we will give you a start date with the estimate.
Are you insured?
Yes, we carry liability insurance. We will send the certificate before work begins.
