The D.F. Painting team uses proven strategies and materials to guarantee a professional paint job.
Most DIY commercials make painting look fun and simple
I've come to find that correctly using blue tape and cleaning spills is not at all as fun or as simple as it seems. Talented homeowners that like to take painting projects on do exist. We encourage everyone to try it at least once in their life. We are here for painting the areas you'd like to delegate.
Our painters have the right tools and materials along with the skills and patience to pull off long lasting professional quality painting. The majority of the time spent painting anything is really preparation and clean up. Our skilled patient team knows that this is the foundation of a high quality painting job.
D.F. Painting strives to offer consistent high quality house painting work in the Suburbs of Chicago. Our painters have worked on a wide variety of projects for many different homeowners and builders. We are equipped to handle all types of painting challenges and have been through more than enough situations to understand your home's unique needs.
Here's our interior painting process (of course if we are only refinishing your cabinets not all steps apply):
Remove furniture, wall hangings, and window treatments necessary
Lay down drop cloths to project your flooring and for faster clean up
To be more efficient we set up our work area intelligently. It prevents having to search for tools every five minutes.
Remove doors, outlet covers, vents, nails, etc
Repair damage to surfaces
Lots and lots of sanding
Whether we're painting your trim or not, caulking is extremely important. The separation between walls and trim is not normal. The gaps occur from age, cold weather, and a low quality non-expanding caulk. We only use the best, Tower Tech, no exception. Once you notice those cracks and gaps they'll become one of your pet peeves also.
Strategically lay down blue tape and since we do not mess around, masking paper.
Finally the painting begins. We do literally cut corners and edges like pros.
Dust, vacuum, clean, and reinstall everything you want back up
Touch-ups before we leave and if necessary a few days after when moving in is finalized
