Grayslake is a village of brick ranches, split-levels and newer developments, all with different masonry types. How we paint them depends on when they were built and what the brick is made of.
Older Grayslake homes use this dark, porous brick. It absorbs paint fast and needs a heavy primer coat before the finish goes on.
Modern subdivisions use denser brick. It doesn't soak up primer the same way, so we adjust the mix and the application.
Grayslake gets rain and snow, and the mineral deposits show up as white streaks. We wash them off before painting so they don't bleed through your exterior paint job.
Brick painted without proper prep will peel within two seasons. Our crew preps it right the first time so you don't pay for it twice.
Eight steps, same order every time, whether it's one exterior wall or a whole brick house.
We check the condition, look for mortar cracks, and test how the brick absorbs moisture.
Dirt, moss and loose paint blasted off. The brick has to dry for at least 48 hours.
Loose joints and missing sections pointed up so the surface is flat.
Windows, doors and landscaping taped and sheeted. No paint on your plants.
Seals the pores so the finish coat bonds and doesn't fail in a year.
Breathable masonry paint applied with a roller and brush.
Full second coat once the first has dried. This is where the coverage becomes solid.
Everything peeled back, site cleared, then we walk it with you.
