Painting, Remodeling & Flooring in Carol Stream, IL

Carol Stream was built mostly in one long stretch, from the 1960s through the 1980s, and it shows in the houses: ranches, split-levels and two-stories laid out along curved streets, with a large industrial and warehouse district on the north side. Day to day the village moves by car along North Avenue, Army Trail and Gary Avenue. We reach it from Bolingbrook on I-355.

Houses of that age are at the point where the original materials are finished. Cedar and hardboard siding needs washing, sanding and priming before paint will hold; split-level entries, shutters and garage doors usually want refinishing at the same time. Inside, the common jobs are opening up a dated kitchen, redoing a bathroom, swapping worn carpet for hard flooring, and repainting afterward. Free estimate either way.

What the work usually involves in Carol Stream

Local housing stock decides what a project really needs. Here is what we plan for in this area.
  • Cedar and hardboard siding

    A lot of Carol Stream exteriors are wood or hardboard rather than vinyl. Those boards drink paint once the old film has chalked, and the bottom edges are where water gets in. We wash, sand the failed areas back, prime bare board and seal the joints before the color goes on.

  • Split-level stairwells

    Split-levels put two stories of wall into one stairwell, with a railing in the middle and little room for a ladder. It is the hardest wall in the house to cut in cleanly and the easiest to leave roller marks on. Lower levels tend to need better lighting and lighter color to stop feeling like a basement.

  • Warehouse and office units

    The business park on the north end is a different kind of painting: tall interior walls, block and deck above, dock doors, and an office area out front. That work gets staged around shifts so operations keep running, and we can handle drywall repair and flooring in the office space at the same time.

FAQ

Carol Stream questions

More answers on the FAQ page.

Often repaint. Chalking is the old finish breaking down, not the wood failing, and sound boards take a fresh coat well once they are washed, sanded and primed. Where boards are split, cupped or soft at the bottom edge, we replace those pieces first. We tell you which you have after looking at it.
