Paint Spraying in Elmhurst, IL

Exterior spraying for Elmhurst siding

Lap siding has a lower lip on every board, and that edge is where water sits and paint fails first. A sprayer reaches the underside of each lap that a brush or roller tends to skip. On wood, we back-brush right behind the spray to push paint into the grain and the joints. Soffits, fascia and garage doors are sprayed the same way, with trim cut in by hand where a sharp line matters.

We cover Elmhurst, off I-290 and I-294 with York Road, North Avenue and St. Charles Road taking us across town. If your house sits close to the one next door, a narrow side yard changes how we spray it: shields go up, the neighbor's siding and windows get covered, and some sections get brushed instead. Two-story walls get ladders or staging set on pads so the lawn and beds are not torn up. We spray on calm days only, because wind can carry paint mist over a fence and onto a car next door.

What an Elmhurst exterior spray job includes

Wash and dry time

Siding washed, then left to dry before scraping and primer.

Scraped and primed

Loose paint scraped to a sound edge, edges sanded, and bare wood primed.

Rot replaced

Soft siding boards and trim cut out and replaced, not painted over.

Undersides of every lap

Spray aimed into the lower edge of each siding board, then back-brushed.

Neighbor's side shielded

Shields and covers on the next house, fence and cars wherever the gap is tight.

Trim cut in by hand

Window and door trim finished with a brush for a crisp line against the siding.

How an Elmhurst exterior job runs

After we walk the outside together, you get a written estimate listing each surface, the prep, the product, the coats and which parts are sprayed or brushed. Exterior work runs spring to fall on dry days above 50 degrees, and we tell you when wind moves a spray day. Rot or damage found during scraping is shown to you and priced in writing before we replace it. On the last day we walk around the house with you and touch up anything you find.

FAQ

Paint Spraying in Elmhurst: questions

Do you only spray, or do you brush too?

Both. We spray the siding and back-brush it, then cut in trim by hand. Some sections, like a tight side yard, may be brushed and rolled entirely.

How do you keep paint off my neighbor's house?

We only spray in calm air, use hand shields, and cover the neighbor's siding, windows and cars when the gap is narrow. Where that is not enough, we brush.

Does Elmhurst require a permit to repaint my house?

Repainting usually does not. If we replace siding or trim beyond minor repairs, we check with the city and pull a permit where it is required.

When is the exterior season?

Spring to fall, on dry days above 50 degrees. Call or text (815) 585-1750 to get on the calendar.
