Romeoville Brick Has Its Own Character
Romeoville has a mix of 1960s brick ranches, 1990s two-story homes with brick facades, and newer homes on the east side. Each one needs a different approach to painting.
Porous brick on older homes
Older ranches near Romeo Road have brick that sucks up paint like a sponge. We use a thick masonry primer to seal it so the top coats don't disappear into the brick.
Efflorescence and salt stains
White mineral stains show up on brick from moisture inside the wall. We neutralize them before painting so they don't bleed back through the new paint.
Weather and curing time
Romeoville gets hot summers and cold winters. We schedule brick painting when temperatures are consistent so the paint cures right and holds through the freeze-thaw cycle.
Brick that's never been painted before needs a different approach than brick that's already coated. We test each wall first so we know what we're working with.
How We Paint Brick on a Romeoville Home
Seven steps, same order every time, whether it's a fireplace or a full exterior.
Inspect the brick
We look for loose mortar, efflorescence and any moisture issues before we start.
Pressure wash
The whole surface gets cleaned so paint has a clean, dust-free surface to bond to.
Let it dry
Brick holds moisture longer than wood. We wait for it to fully dry before priming.
Apply masonry primer
Breathable primer seals the pores so the top coats stay on top of the brick.
First coat
Masonry paint applied with a roller and brushed into every mortar joint.
Second coat
Full second coat once the first has dried for an even, uniform finish.
Cleanup and walkthrough
We clean up and walk the job with you, fixing anything you point out.

What People Complain About, and What You End Up With
Almost every brick call opens with one of these. Here's the cause on the left, and here's what the brick looks like when we pack up.
The problem
Old paint wasn't sealed properly, or the brick wasn't primed before it was painted.
Efflorescence from moisture inside the wall bleeding through the new paint.
Paint rolled over the faces of the brick but never brushed into the joints.
What you get
Primer seals the brick, two coats lock it in, and it holds up to weather.
Efflorescence neutralized before painting so it doesn't ghost back through.
Every mortar joint brushed with paint so the whole wall reads uniform.
