Paint Spraying in Lombard

A basement ceiling that reads as one finished surface, with joists, pipes and ducts all one color. We spray open basement ceilings in Lombard and cover every appliance below.

Spraying Lombard basement ceilings and walls

An open basement ceiling is close to impossible to paint well with a roller, with joists, wires, pipes and ducts running every direction. A sprayer reaches the tops of the joists, the backs of the pipes and the bays between them in one pass. We mask the furnace, water heater, electrical panel, windows and floor first, and we keep labels and shutoffs readable. Poured or block foundation walls can be sprayed in the same visit with a masonry primer and paint made for them.

Lombard is on our regular route, off I-355 with Roosevelt Road, Main Street and St. Charles Road getting us to your street. If your basement shows signs of moisture, like white powder on the block or damp corners after rain, we tell you before we paint, because coating a wet wall only traps the problem. A basement also needs airflow while paint dries, so we set fans to push air out a window. The space stays ventilated until the smell clears.

How a Lombard basement spray job runs

We look at the basement with you, check the walls for moisture, and give you a written estimate that lists the ceiling, the walls, the masking and the coats. Storage gets moved by you or by us, and the estimate says which. If we find a leak, a soft joist or wiring that needs attention, we show you and price any fix in writing, and nothing moves forward until you approve it. We finish with a walkthrough under the basement lights.

FAQ

Paint Spraying in Lombard: questions

Is it safe to paint over the pipes and wiring in my basement ceiling?
Yes, with the right prep. Pipes and cable jackets take paint, and we keep valves, labels and the electrical panel clear so they stay readable.
Can you paint basement walls that get damp?
Not until the moisture is dealt with. Paint on a wet wall peels and traps the problem, so we check first and tell you what we find.
Do I need a Lombard permit to paint my basement?
Painting alone usually does not need one from the village. If the job grows into framing or finishing the space, we check with the village and pull a permit where it is required.
How long will the basement be out of use?
Usually a few days for masking, spraying and drying, and the estimate lists them. Call or text (815) 585-1750 if you want to plan around laundry or storage.
Do you spray basements near Lombard?
Yes. We also do basement spraying in Villa Park, Glen Ellyn, Downers Grove and Addison.
