Trim & Door Painting in Wheaton

Wheaton trim and door painting

A trim job is judged by its edges. We fill the nail holes and dents, caulk where the trim pulls away from the wall, sand off the gloss and prime anything bare or oil-based. The enamel goes on in thin, even coats so the profile of the molding stays sharp instead of filling in. Then we cut the line where trim meets wall by hand, which is what makes the whole room look finished.

We cover Wheaton, coming in on Roosevelt Road and Naperville Road and working around Main Street, the Metra station and Wheaton College in DuPage County. Where an older Wheaton house still has plaster walls, the wall rarely meets the trim in a straight line, and the gap opens and closes along the run. We fill those gaps with a flexible caulk and keep the cut line tight to the trim so the eye follows the molding, not the wavy wall. If the trim carries many old coats, we can sand back the heaviest buildup on the profile so the detail shows again.

Estimate to walkthrough in Wheaton

We look at each room with you and write down what the trim needs, from caulk and filling to sanding back old buildup, along with the enamel and the sheen. Anything we uncover that is not on that list gets shown, priced in writing and approved by you before we do it. We tell you which rooms and doors are in work each day so the house still runs. The job ends with a walkthrough in good light and touch-ups on anything you see.
