Quick Answer
Exterior painting in Villa Park starts at $349 for a typical siding job. A full house with trim, doors and soffits usually runs between $2,500 and $4,500 depending on size and condition. Vanguard Painting pressure washes, scrapes loose paint, primes bare spots and applies two coats of exterior-grade paint. We also paint brick and siding separately when the house has mixed surfaces.
What You Get When We Paint Your Exterior
Book exterior work in Villa Park and this is the package. None of it is an add-on we spring on you halfway through.
Dirt, mildew and loose paint blasted off so the new coat can grip.
Peeling edges scraped back and sanded smooth. No paint left behind.
Window and door gaps sealed so water stays out and the finish stays tight.
Wood and masonry exposed by scraping get a bonding primer first.
With proper dry time between them. That's where even color comes from.
We brush trim and cut-in areas, roll the big fields for even coverage.
Trim gets the same two coats with enamel for extra protection.
All scrapings hauled away, then we walk it with you and fix anything you point at.

Villa Park Exteriors Take a Beating
Villa Park sees hot summers, freezing winters and everything in between. That weather works on siding, brick and trim in ways you don't see until you're up close.
Cedar siding wears out
Many Villa Park homes have cedar or wood siding that's been painted over for decades. The bottom edges trap moisture and rot. We check every board before we paint.
Brick wants to breathe
Brick needs a special paint that lets moisture out. We use masonry primer and breathable topcoats on brick painting in Villa Park so the brick doesn't spall.
Trim takes the worst of it
Window and door trim catches sun and rain from two directions. We sand and prime those spots heavier than the rest of the house.
Homes built before 1978 can carry lead paint under the top layers. Our crews follow safe prep on those, which is one more reason not to hand this to somebody working out of a trunk.

What People Complain About, and What You End Up With
Almost every call opens with one of these. Here's the cause on the left, and here's what the exterior looks like when we pack up.
The problem
Water got under the paint because they didn't prime or they painted over damp wood.
South and west sides take the worst UV damage. Cheap paint burns off fast.
Regular paint traps moisture in the brick. It flakes within a year.
What you get
Pressure washed, scraped, primed where bare, and two coats applied. It holds.
UV-resistant paint on all four sides, with proper dry time between coats.
Masonry primer and breathable topcoat so moisture escapes and paint stays.
