Two-story foyers, long trim runs and big exteriors in Burr Ridge painted with the right setup and the prep finished first.
Burr Ridge is on our regular route for interior and exterior painting. Indoors we paint walls, ceilings, trim, doors and cabinets, and outdoors we paint siding, trim, doors, porches and railings. On every surface, the prep comes before the paint: patching, sanding, caulking, priming and masking. Rotted trim is replaced, primed and then painted, never covered over.
Burr Ridge sits across DuPage and Cook counties, and we come in on I-55 and County Line Road, with Route 83 and Plainfield Road getting us around. Large lots and larger homes are common here, and size changes the setup more than the method. A two-story foyer or great room needs scaffolding or a rolling tower to reach the ceiling line safely, and an exterior with several rooflines can mean a long run of trim to scrape, caulk and prime. We break a big job into phases in the written estimate so you can see what gets done in which order.

Foyers, great rooms and stairwells get a rolling tower or scaffold, so the ceiling line and upper walls are cut by hand from a stable platform.
Large interiors and exteriors are broken into phases in the estimate, so each area is finished and cleaned before the next starts.
Fascia, soffits, frieze boards and window trim are scraped, caulked at every joint and primed where bare.
Any trim that has softened is replaced with new material and sealed at the cut ends before it is painted to match.
Paneled doors, built-in shelving and stair railings are sanded between coats for a smooth enamel finish.
Hardwood, stone and carpet are covered, and furniture is moved and wrapped before we start each room.
A free estimate gets the job started, and on a larger home we take the time to look at every room and every side of the house. The written estimate breaks down each surface, the prep, the products and the coats, phase by phase. If hidden damage turns up, such as rot behind a gutter, we price the repair in writing and hold it until you approve. At the end of each phase and again at the finish, we walk the work with you and touch up anything you point out.
Larger homes get a full walk of every room and every side at no cost. Call or text (815) 585-1750 to set the visit.
