Mundelein Siding Faces Specific Weather Challenges
Mundelein homes sit through Lake County winters, humid summers and everything in between. The siding takes a beating, and painting it requires the right approach.
Winter freeze-thaw cycles
Water gets into cracks and freezes, expanding the gaps. Paint peels faster here. We caulk every gap before painting to keep water out.
Vinyl and thermal movement
Vinyl siding expands and contracts with temperature changes. We use paint that flexes with it so it doesn't crack or peel.
Mildew on north-facing walls
Shaded sides of Mundelein homes grow mildew. We pressure wash with mildewcide and use paint that resists regrowth, which is standard on our exterior painting in Mundelein jobs.
If your siding has rot or water damage, we'll flag it before we paint. Painting over damaged siding traps moisture and makes it worse.

What People Complain About, and What You Get Instead
Almost every call opens with one of these. Here's the cause on the left, and here's what your house looks like when we pack up.
The problem
Poor prep or the wrong paint for the material. Vinyl expands, wood breathes, each needs different products.
Paint without mildewcide grows black spots within months on shaded walls.
Uncaulked gaps let water in, freeze and expand, pushing paint off the house.
What you get
Proper prep, the right primer and exterior-grade paint applied in two coats.
Paint with mildewcide built in on every wall, especially shaded north and east sides.
Every joint, seam, window and door edge caulked before paint goes on.
