Exterior Painting in Wood Dale, IL

Wood Dale exterior painting that fixes the wood first

Our crew paints siding, trim, soffit and fascia, doors, garage doors, shutters, porches and railings. We wash the house, scrape loose paint, sand the edges and prime bare wood before any color goes on. Every open joint gets new caulk. Boards that have rotted get replaced, since paint cannot stop rot and will flake off it.

We cover Wood Dale off Route 83, coming in on Irving Park Road, Thorndale Avenue and Wood Dale Road near the Metra station. Fascia boards sit right behind the gutters, and when a gutter overflows or pulls away, water runs down the back of the board. If your fascia is soft or the paint has blistered along the roof edge, we take down the gutter section where we need to, replace the bad wood, prime it on all sides and paint it. The gutter then goes back up on a sound board instead of a rotting one.

Wood Dale exterior painting scope

Fascia replacement

Soft fascia behind the gutters gets cut out, replaced with new wood and primed before it is painted.

Soffit panels

We check the soffit for water stains and soft spots, replace bad sections and paint the run to match.

Siding prep

Loose paint on the siding gets scraped, the edges sanded and bare spots primed.

Trim and corners

Corner boards, window casings and door trim get new caulk where the joints have opened, then fresh paint.

Doors and shutters

Entry doors, garage doors and shutters get sanded and painted in the colors you choose.

Covers on the ground

Drop cloths cover your beds, walks and driveway, and we clean up scrapings before we leave each day.

How a Wood Dale job goes

We meet you at the house, look at the roofline, siding and doors, and send a written estimate with each surface, the prep, the product and the coats. Rotted wood we find after starting gets shown to you, priced on paper and repaired only with your go-ahead. Exteriors are scheduled spring to fall on dry days above 50 degrees, and we plan around the forecast. When the paint is dry, we walk the job with you and touch up anything you mark.

FAQ

Exterior Painting in Wood Dale: questions

My fascia is soft behind the gutter. Can you paint it?

Not until the soft wood is replaced. We take the gutter down where needed, put in new fascia, prime it and paint it, then the gutter goes back up.

Do you paint in towns around Wood Dale?

Yes. We also cover Itasca, Addison and Elmhurst.

Is a permit needed in Wood Dale for exterior painting?

Fresh paint on its own rarely calls for one. Fascia or siding replacement might, so we confirm with the city before we start that part and take care of the permit if it is needed.

Can you paint in the fall?

Yes, as long as the days stay dry and above 50 degrees. Once the temperature stays below that, exterior painting waits for spring.

How do I set up an estimate?

Call or text (815) 585-1750 and pick a time for us to look at the roofline and siding with you.
