Westchester Exteriors Need Special Attention
Westchester's mix of building styles and Chicago weather means exterior paint has to be done right. Here's what we know about the local homes.
Mid-century siding
Many Westchester homes have original wood siding that's weathered decades of snow and sun. We pressure wash, scrape and prime every inch before paint goes on.
Brick with painted trim
Brick ranch homes are common here. We treat brick with breathable paint and use enamel on the trim. See our brick painting details.
Weather exposure
Westchester gets the full range of Midwest weather. Exterior paint needs to handle freeze-thaw cycles. We use paint that flexes with temperature changes.
If your Westchester home was built before 1978, the older paint may contain lead. Our crews handle that with proper safety and disposal.
