What Makes Exterior Painting Tricky on North Riverside Homes
North Riverside has a mix of mid-century ranches and older two-stories with original wood siding that's been painted over five times. Moisture from the Des Plaines River corridor and the freeze-thaw cycle mean exterior paint fails faster here than in other spots if the prep work is rushed. Our crews handle these surfaces every week, the same way we do on our siding painting jobs across the county.
Loose paint hides underneath
What looks like good paint often has a layer of loose stuff underneath. We scrape until we hit solid wood or metal.
Caulk fails at joints
Caulk around windows and corners shrinks after a few years. We cut it all out and reapply before painting.
Wood rot gets covered up
Soft spots along the bottom of siding get probed and replaced or filled with epoxy before anything is primed.
Vinyl siding needs the right paint
Regular paint peels off vinyl in a year. We use paint formulated for vinyl that flexes with the material.
Old brick breathes through paint
Brick that's been painted before traps moisture. We use a breathable primer on brick painting.
Height changes the cost
Two-story homes need ladders and sometimes scaffolding. We price that in before we start, not after.

A North Riverside Painting Crew, Not a Call Centre
We're based a few minutes away in Broadview, so when you call about a job on 1st Avenue or near the Commons, you're talking to the people who will be standing in your yard. We know the housing stock here: the ranches along Des Plaines Avenue, the older two-stories with original wood siding, and the brick homes near the golf course that need a different approach to prep.
That same crew covers the neighbouring suburbs too, from Riverside and Brookfield across to Lyons, Berwyn and Forest Park. Same crew, same prep, same price list.

How We Paint a North Riverside Exterior, Step by Step
Most of the work that decides how an exterior paint job looks in five years happens before any colour goes on the house. Here's the order we do it in, every single time.
Walk the property with you
We look at every side of the house, then write the price down. No charge, no pressure.
Lock the colours
Sample chips go on your actual siding, checked in morning and afternoon light.
Pressure wash the entire house
Every surface gets cleaned to remove dirt, mildew and loose paint dust.
Scrape and sand loose paint
Loose and peeling paint is removed back to a sound edge, then feathered.
Re-caulk and repair
All window and door joints get new caulk, and soft wood gets repaired or replaced.
Prime bare surfaces
Bare wood, metal, and stains get primed before any finish coat goes on.
Two finish coats
Siding, trim, doors, and soffits get two coats, sprayed or brushed depending on the surface.
Walkthrough and final check
We walk the whole house with you and fix anything you point at before we pack up.
The Exterior Painting Problems North Riverside Homeowners Call Us About
Almost every call starts with one of these. Here's what's actually going on, and what your house looks like once we're done.
Paint peeling on the south side
Sun and moisture hit the south elevation hardest. That paint fails first. We strip it back and use a primer made for high-UV exposure. Same approach on siding work.
Caulk cracking around windows
Shrinking caulk leaves gaps that let water behind the siding. We cut it all out and reapply a flexible urethane caulk.
A house that looks painted, not just covered
Straight lines at the gutters, even sheen across the siding, and trim that stands out against the wall.
Paint that holds through Chicago winters
Good adhesion and flexible paint mean your exterior looks the same in February as it does in June.
