Two-story walls and high gables painted with the same prep as the first floor. Our crew paints Oak Brook exteriors side by side, with the right ladders for the height.
The high parts of a house get skipped or rushed more than any other surface, and they are the parts that take the most sun and weather. We bring ladders sized for two-story walls and work the gables, upper trim and soffit with the same wash, scrape, sand and prime as the walls you can touch from the ground. Rotted fascia or trim found up high gets replaced, not painted over. Caulk is renewed at every open joint before the finish coats go on.
Oak Brook is on our regular route, off I-88, I-294 and Route 83, with 22nd Street and York Road getting us to the door. If your house sits back on a large lot, we stage materials near the work so your driveway is not lined with gear for days. A larger house usually gets painted one elevation at a time, so each side goes from wash to final coat before we move on. That way a change in the weather stops work at a clean line instead of leaving every wall half done.
Ladders set for the full height, so peaks and upper siding get the same prep as the first floor.
The underside of the roof edge washed, scraped and painted, with soft fascia boards replaced.
Each elevation taken from wash to final coat before the crew moves to the next.
Loose paint scraped, edges sanded flat and bare wood primed ahead of any finish coat.
Entry doors, garage doors and shutters cleaned, sanded and finished in the color and sheen you choose.
Plantings, patios, walks and the driveway covered while we work and cleared at the end of each day.
We walk each elevation with you and write the estimate by side of the house, listing every surface, the prep, the product and the coats. On a large house, that breakdown is what lets you see where the time goes. If we find rot up high that the ground view hid, we photograph it, show you and price it in writing before anything changes. We book dry days above 50 degrees from spring to fall and keep to them unless the weather says otherwise, then we finish with a walk around the house.
Text or call (815) 585-1750 and we will walk every side of the house with you, then send the estimate in writing.
