Customer Service We’ve been painting homes in Wilmette for over 20 years. The housing here runs the full range, from the larger brick-and-stucco homes east of Green Bay Road to the Cape Cods and colonials further west. Each neighborhood has its own character, and the work changes depending on where you are in town.
A lot of our Wilmette clients come to us through Nextdoor recommendations or referrals from neighbors. When you see our trucks on a street, there’s a good chance we’re working on two or three houses in that same area. That’s how it tends to go in Wilmette. Someone sees the work, asks who did it, and gives us a call.
Why Wilmette Homeowners Work With Us
Many Wilmette homes were built in the 1920s through the 1950s, which means plaster walls, original wood windows, and multiple layers of old paint on trim and built-ins. The prep work on these homes is where the real skill comes in. We spend time getting surfaces ready because a good paint job really starts with a good prep job underneath.
For interior work, that means filling nail holes, caulking gaps where trim meets plaster, sanding woodwork between coats, and using the right primer for the surface. On a typical Wilmette colonial, we’ll apply a high-adhesion primer to plaster walls, then two coats of finish in the sheen the homeowner chooses. For trim, we usually recommend semi-gloss or satin for durability and easy cleaning.
Exterior work in Wilmette often involves dealing with wood siding that hasn’t been painted for 8 or 10 years. We’ll scrape, power wash, grind, spot-prime bare wood, caulk joints, and then apply two coats of quality exterior paint. If there’s rot, we can remove and replace it with the next, cut out the damaged section, and splice in new wood or apply epoxy before painting.
