02Why River Forest Calls Us

Why River Forest Homeowners Call Us to Paint and Repair Their Fences

A fence takes a beating from Illinois weather. Wood rots, paint peels, pickets break. Here's why we're the crew to call.

Repair first, paint second

Broken pickets, loose posts, and rotted sections get fixed before we paint. The fence has to be sound.

Prep that actually sticks

We sand, scrape, and prime. Our exterior painting team knows how to make paint hold up outside.

Paint or stain — your choice

We use solid stains that cover like paint or semi-transparent stains that show wood grain.

Weather-ready finish

Our products stand up to sun, rain, and Chicago winters. No peeling after one season.

Written price upfront

What we quote is what you pay. No hidden charges for repairs or prep.
