What Makes Exterior Painting Tricky on Hillside Homes
Hillside has a mix of mid-century ranches and split-levels with original wood siding and aluminum trim. The proximity to the I-290 corridor means airborne dirt and road salt hit the south and west sides harder than other elevations. Our crews handle these surfaces every week, the same way we do on our siding painting jobs across the county.
Aluminum siding expands and contracts
Aluminum moves with temperature changes. We use a flexible paint that moves with it so it doesn't crack at the seams.
Wood siding rots at the bottom
Poor drainage and splashback rot the lower edges. We probe and replace before anything is primed.
Caulk fails around windows
Old caulk shrinks and cracks, letting water behind the siding. We cut it all out and reapply a urethane caulk.
Vinyl siding looks chalky
Chalky vinyl needs a primer designed for slick surfaces. We use a bonding primer made for vinyl.
Old paint traps moisture
Multiple layers of paint can trap moisture. We strip back to a stable layer, then prime properly.
Two-story homes need staging
Height adds time and equipment cost. We price that in upfront instead of surprising you later.

A Hillside Painting Crew, Not a Call Centre
We're based a few minutes away in Broadview, so when you call about a job on Madison Street or near the Hillside Commons, you're talking to the people who will be standing in your yard. We know the housing stock here: the brick ranches along Roosevelt, the split-levels with aluminum siding that need a specific prep, and the larger homes near the West Suburban Sports Complex that see a lot of sun and wind.
That same crew covers the neighbouring suburbs too, from Westchester and Berkeley across to Bellwood, Northlake and Maywood. Same crew, same prep, same price list.

How We Paint a Hillside 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 Hillside 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 near the roofline
Moisture from the eaves and poor ventilation cause peeling at the top. We address the moisture source and repaint with a mildew-resistant primer.
Chalky aluminum siding
Oxidation leaves a chalky residue that repels paint. We pressure wash and use a bonding primer specifically for aluminum.
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.
