Interior & Exterior Painting in Palatine

Palatine painting, planned around the weather

We take on interior painting, from walls and ceilings to trim, doors and cabinets, and exterior painting of siding, trim, doors, porches and railings. Prep is where most of the time goes: patching, sanding, caulking, priming and masking off everything that stays unpainted. Rotted trim gets replaced, not painted over. Furniture is moved and covered, and floors are protected from the first day to the last.

Palatine is on our regular route up Route 53, with Rand Road, Dundee Road and Northwest Highway getting us across town, from around Harper College to downtown and the Metra station. Exterior painting here runs spring to fall on dry days above 50 degrees, so the calendar matters. A winter estimate lets you hold spring dates for the outside while the cold months go to interior rooms. In the fall we watch overnight lows as well as daytime highs, since paint needs time above 50 degrees to cure.

How we schedule and run a Palatine paint job

We come out for a free estimate and write up each room or surface with its prep, the products and the number of coats. Once you approve it, we give you dates: interior work on the days you choose, exterior work in the dry, warm stretch of the season. If we run into something not on the estimate, it gets priced in writing and waits for your approval. We wrap up with a walkthrough and touch up anything you point out.

• You can book spring exterior dates during the winter.
• Interior painting runs in every season.
• We paint outside only on dry days above 50 degrees.
• Your estimate lists every surface, its prep and its coats.
