Your siding and trim get new paint over sound, primed wood, so the coat bonds instead of peeling by next summer. We cover Homer Glen houses from the foundation line to the peak.
We work in Homer Glen every week, and exterior painting covers everything on the outside of the house: siding, trim, soffit and fascia, doors, the garage door, shutters and porch railings. Every job starts with a wash, because paint will not stick to dirt and chalk. Then we scrape loose paint, sand the edges flat, prime bare wood and renew the caulk at every open joint. Only after that does a finish coat go on.
We reach Homer Glen up I-355 and across 143rd and 159th Street, and the village sits in Will County between Lockport, Lemont and Orland Park. If your house sits on a big open lot, sun and wind hit it hard, and that matters on paint day. A hot wall dries paint before it can level out and leaves lap marks, so we follow the shade around the house, working the east side in the afternoon and the west side in the morning. It takes more planning, and you can see it in the finish.
The siding and trim get washed and left to dry so primer and paint bond to the surface, not to a film of dirt.
Loose and flaking paint comes off down to a tight edge, and the edges get sanded so they do not show through the new coat.
Any wood that shows after scraping gets primer before the finish, since paint over raw wood soaks in unevenly and fails early.
Soft trim boards and siding pieces are replaced with new stock, not filled and painted over.
Gaps at corners, windows and trim are cleaned out and recaulked so water stays out of the wall.
Landscaping, walkways and the driveway get covered before scraping starts and stay covered until cleanup.
We walk the outside of the house with you for a free estimate. The written estimate names each surface, the prep it needs, the product and the number of coats, so you know what you are paying for wall by wall. If scraping turns up rot we did not see, we price the repair in writing and wait for your yes before we touch it. Then we book around the days we said and walk the finished job with you before we pack up.
Pick up the phone or send a text to (815) 585-1750. Once we have seen the siding in person, you get a scope that spells out each wall and coat.
