Painting, Flooring & Remodeling in Darien, IL

Darien is close enough to Bolingbrook that Lemont Road gets you most of the way there. It is a quieter town than its neighbors, mostly subdivisions laid out between the 1960s and the 1980s along Cass Avenue and 75th Street, with Waterfall Glen Forest Preserve just over the southern boundary. Split-levels, long brick ranches and two-story colonials, nearly all of them now at the age where the original siding, windows and kitchens are due.

On a split-level the job is rarely only paint. The entry, the half-flight of stairs and the lower-level family room all share sightlines, so flooring, trim and wall color have to be settled together. Exteriors on these homes pair brick with wood or hardboard siding, and it is the siding that fails first. We handle painting, flooring, remodeling and replacement windows, and looking at it costs nothing.

What the work usually involves in Darien

Local housing stock decides what a project really needs. Here is what we plan for in this area.
  • Hardboard Siding Repairs

    Hardboard and composite siding was standard on 1970s and 80s builds, and it swells along the bottom edge once water works in behind the paint. The soft courses come off and get replaced, the rest is primed on all faces, and the butt joints are flashed or caulked properly so the repair actually lasts.

  • Lower-Level Family Rooms

    Below-grade family rooms come with the territory here, and they are easy to get wrong. Flooring has to tolerate a slab, old paneling usually needs to come off before drywall goes up, and the lighting has to make up for small windows. We frame, board, finish and paint it as one job.

  • Under the Oak Canopy

    Streets backing onto Waterfall Glen and the Des Plaines valley sit under heavy oak cover. That means shade, damp north walls, sap and leaf litter in the gutters, and trim that stays wet long after a storm. Those elevations get washed, treated for mildew and primed before the finish coat, or the coat does not hold.

FAQ

Darien questions

Not usually by much. Sound brick often stays as it is, so the work concentrates on the siding, soffit, fascia and trim. What moves the price is how much siding needs replacing first and how hard the upper runs are to reach safely. The free estimate separates those two things so you can see them.
