Niles Siding Has Its Own Challenges
Niles has a mix of vinyl ranches, wood-sided split-levels and aluminum-sided bungalows. Chicago weather and mid-century materials create specific problems.
Vinyl that's faded and chalky
Vinyl siding in Niles has seen decades of summer sun and winter freeze. The chalky surface needs a special primer so paint doesn't peel off.
Wood siding that's dried out
Wood siding on older Niles homes gets dry and cracked. We use oil-based primer to seal it before the finish coat goes on.
Aluminum that's dented and oxidized
Aluminum siding from the 1960s and 70s oxidizes and corrodes. We clean it and prime it so the paint adheres and doesn't flake.
We also check for rot on wood siding and replace damaged sections before painting. If your Niles home has old lead paint, we follow safe handling procedures.

A Crew From Down the Road, Not a Call Center
Our shop is at 541 Winston Dr in Melrose Park. Niles is a straight shot up Milwaukee and Caldwell, which is why we can usually get out for an estimate the same week you call. The person who prices your job is the person you'll see on the scaffolding.
We work the near west and north suburbs every day and we know these homes. Same crew, same prep, same price sheet whether you're on Oak Avenue or over by the Niles Senior Center. If a spot needs a touch-up two weeks later, we're close enough to swing back.
Siding work often picks up other exterior work too. Plenty of Niles customers add brick painting or deck and fence staining once we're already booked in.

What People Complain About, and What You End Up With
Almost every siding call opens with one of these. Here's the cause on the left, and here's what the house looks like when we pack up.
The problem
Regular paint doesn't stick to vinyl. Peels off in sheets after one Chicago winter.
Decades of sun have faded the color. New paint won't stick unless the chalk is washed off.
Wood siding absorbs moisture then cracks. Paint peels around the cracks.
What you get
Specialized primer and flexible paint that moves with the vinyl. Won't peel.
Exterior paint with UV protection that stays vivid for years.
Oil-based primer soaks into the wood. Paint seals it from moisture.
True on every Niles siding job we take:
What the Houses Look Like When We Leave
