D.F. Painting: Exceptional, Affordable, Quality
"The house shelters daydreaming, the house protects the dreamer, the house allows one to dream in peace." Gaston Bachelard
Our homes are truly our castles.
As fellow homeowners we understand the struggle. Things need to get repaired, and redone, and when we have time to think about it. . . we make plans to actually try out those houzz and pinterest ideas we love.
Hiring a contractor is a necessity as homeowners.
It is so important to find qualified professionals. We've come to learn that we also have to like them. We are inviting them into our home and that is a BIG deal.
However, it does not have to be painful. There are many to choose from.
As a small family owned painting company, we understand what you are going through and encourage you to hire who you feel the most comfortable with.
We will do everything within our power to make your decision process as simple as possible. Once hired, we continue to make the process easy for you by keeping our word and respecting your choices.
Apart from homeowners, we paint for custom home builders, and commercial contractors.
We are fully insured and experienced to take any painting project on. From experience, we've come to learn that it also takes back office organization and clear communication to maintain a good working relationship. Our ability to work together makes a huge impact on how many projects we will work together on.
That is why we truly appreciate that you are taking us into consideration. We will strive to meet all of your painting needs.
In the meantime, here is more personal info about us :)

A Couple that Loves to Paint
Laura C. MuñozLaura is the mastermind behind the guerrilla marketing and the not so exciting yet super important office work . . . or at least I like to think so. (I am writing this site, so I figure I should just talk to you)
The first business I started was selling notebook paper that I drew borders around for classmates to write letters on. It went really well. I had one customer and he was a regular! My quality and customer service was on point :) Art was one of my favorite classes and painting was a huge part of my life. My wall painting ability on the other hand became my parents' worst nightmare when they had me paint their upstairs while in high school. They did introduced me to sales. At 14, I started selling all on my own. The experience allowed me to try out different sales techniques. The consultative sales approach attracted me the most. I focus on really understanding what people are looking for and sharing information (like a human being not a sales robot). I believe in working with people and helping with anything I can. Afterwards, I have learned to give people space to make their final purchasing decision. I received a business management degree from DePaul University and started my search for the correct business to build. After 3 years of knowing Carlos, partnering up was meant to be (we officially tied the knot a year after we launched D.F. Painting). I recognized his talent's potential and value to homeowners, contractors and builders. With my business, marketing and sales background and his painting and remodeling experience, D.F. Painting was founded. Together we get to focus on what each of us do best. |
Carlos Dominguez FloresCarlos's dad started getting him involved in home improvement projects from the time he was 9. He tells me that he was born with talent.... we'll have to take his word for it.
As he developed his "natural" talents, he quickly gained a passion for home improvement. He and his brothers worked on all sorts of projects and their first jobs were in the construction industry. During the past decade, he has focused on painting. He has painted and lead crews for various painting companies giving him a wide variety of experience in residential, commercial and industrial painting. This has allowed him to work with all sorts of customers and know exactly how to provide what they want and listen to their individual needs. Apart from painting he also enjoys the occasional small remodel projects. He has worked on bathrooms, kitchens, flooring, tile, and carpentry. He is a stickler for details. It no longer surprises me that he can walk into any room and notice skilled craftsmanship and paint finishes that the untrained eye would never pay attention to. He finds skilled ways to bring out the quality in any space no matter it's current state. Carlos now leads the D.F. Painting crews. He stays on top of materials, trends and openly shares knowledge and tricks of the trade. He makes sure all team members learn, grow and consistently offer the highest painting quality. The painting team is encouraged to take pride in their craft and paint every home as if it were their own. He keeps the painters fully equipped and strives to give all customers the utmost professional paint results. |
D.F. Painting is really a dream come true for us. Years before we picked the name, we knew it would come to fruition.
Our humble beginnings officially started in the fall of 2014 with just the two of us and a friend that would help out when we needed him. We were blessed with amazing first clients in Chicago, St. Charles, Plainfield, Oswego, Montgomery and Naperville. Their painting projects got us through our first winter and into our busy season. Now, we have a base of long term committed painters, epoxy professionals and drywall division and are looking forward to the years to come.

"The lead painter at D.F. Painting has always been my to go handyman. His professionalism and wide variety of skills impresses me and our family's guests! I have worked with other contractors but am always let down in some regard or another. With D.F. Painting I know they will understand my budget, what I'm looking for and that they are as detail oriented as me.
"They painted most interior rooms in our old and new house. We also hired them to refinish our deck. They worked quickly and the quality is so noticeable compared to others. When our new basement flooded, they scheduled me in immediately, repaired damage, and made our trim and walls look like new. While Carlos was there, he offered (for free) to install 2 cabinets that I had been meaning to hang behind our bar area. Things like this make a world of difference. My family and I highly recommend him to all of our friends."

"I had a very good experience with D.F. Painting. They take pride in their work and I was very satisfied with the outcome of the project. Nice even coating and no bubbles or mistakes. They made the process simple from start to finish. I was impressed they came back to take care of minor touch-ups once we finished moving."
Ethan - Chicago, IL
"We hired D.F. Painting to paint our entire house. They were very friendly cooperative and easy going on our choices. They were done on time and offered us us a free visit to do touch ups. They even went beyond our expectations and painted some of our molding at no cost. Overall, I would highly recommend them."
Ozge - Plainfield, IL
" Our over 100 year old brick home really needed the exterior redone. I did not think our brick could look as good as how the team from D.F. Painting left it. They also helped us pick out more modern colors for our trim, gutters, suffits , front and back porch. The exterior paint job they did is remarkable. Our house has been there for our family throughout the years. Hiring D.F. Painting was the best choice for our home. "
