What Makes Exterior Painting Tougher Than It Looks on Lyons Houses
Lyons sits along the Des Plaines River, so the houses here deal with extra humidity and damp. Many of the homes are mid-century ranches and older brick cottages that have been through decades of Chicago-area weather. That peeling paint on the south side? It's not just old—it's moisture trapped behind the paint. Our exterior painting service starts with finding and fixing those hidden problems so the new finish lasts.
Moisture behind the siding
Lyons gets plenty of humidity from the river. We check for moisture behind the siding and fix the cause before painting.
Old brick needs breathable paint
Many Lyons homes have brick exteriors that need masonry primer and breathable paint. See our brick painting.
Aluminum siding oxidises
Old aluminum siding gets chalky and won't hold paint without a special prep wash. We remove the oxidation before priming.
Wood trim rots near the roofline
Fascia and rake boards on Lyons ranches often have soft spots from trapped moisture. We dig out and repair those areas.
Garages and sheds are afterthoughts
Detached garages and sheds are often neglected. We paint them at the same time as the main house. See garage painting.
Concrete porches flake and stain
Concrete steps and porches need a specific masonry paint. We include them in the same booking. Details on concrete painting.

Exterior Painting for Lyons Houses, Businesses and Rental Properties
One crew, three kinds of jobs. Whether it's the house you live in, the business you run, or the property you manage, the prep and the finish are the same.
Houses and bungalows
Lyons' ranches, bungalows and two-flats. We paint the whole exterior or just the siding, including trim and porches. Neighbours in Riverside and Brookfield book the same package.
Storefronts and offices

We also run exterior work across the rest of the county and out into the collar suburbs:
How We Paint a Lyons Exterior, Step by Step
Most of the work that decides how an exterior paint job holds up in the Illinois winter happens before any colour goes on the wall. Here's the order we do it in, every single time.
Walk the whole exterior with you
We look at every wall, corner, roofline and window frame, then write the price down. No charge, no pressure.
Lock your colours
We bring samples and help you pick a finish that works with your roof and brick in Lyons' light.
Pressure wash
Remove dirt, mildew, chalk and loose paint so the new coats bond properly.
Scrape and sand
Every peeling spot scraped, edges sanded smooth, and any soft wood identified for repair.
Caulk gaps
Old sealant cut out, fresh caulk applied to every window, door and corner joint.
Prime bare areas
Wood, metal and masonry primed with the right product for the surface.
Two finish coats
Rolled and brushed, with the second coat applied after the first has cured in the sun.
Walkaround with you
We circle the entire building with you and fix anything you point at before the gear is packed.
The Exterior Painting Problems Lyons 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.
Brick mortar is cracking and crumbling
Old mortar joints let moisture in behind the brick. We repoint and seal before we prime and paint. Details on brick painting.
Aluminum siding is chalky and faded
Oxidation prevents paint from bonding. We use a chemical cleaner that removes chalk before any paint touches the siding.
A house that looks maintained and protected
Sharp lines where colours meet, even coverage on the siding, and trim that frames the house properly.
Protection against the next Chicago winter
100% acrylic paint that stays flexible, resists moisture, and holds its colour through freeze-thaw cycles.
