Short answer
Yes, we paint in Wheaton, the DuPage County seat with 53,970 residents. Founded in 1831 and incorporated as a village in 1859, the city has homes from many eras, so jobs range from plaster repair and careful repaints in older houses to siding, trim and interior work on newer ones.
A county seat with homes from many decades
Wheaton's old county courthouse is on the National Register of Historic Places, a reminder of how long the city has been here. Before quoting, we check whether walls are plaster or drywall, how many paint layers sit on the trim and whether the house predates 1978. Each one changes the prep, and a pre-1978 build date adds EPA's lead requirements for paid work on painted surfaces.
Repairing plaster before the paint goes on
Plaster cracks when the lath behind it shifts or the keys break loose. Painting over that just reopens the crack within a season. We open the crack, reattach loose sections with plaster washers or adhesive, fill, tape where needed and skim the patch flat. A primer then seals it so the finish coat dries to one even sheen. See plaster wall repair for the full process.
Wheaton painting jobs, inside and out
Plaster Repair
Older Wheaton homes with plaster walls get cracks opened, loose sections reattached and patches skimmed before paint.
Interior Painting
Living rooms and bedrooms get repainted once the walls are repaired, so the new color shows no ridges.
Trim, Baseboard & Door Painting
Trim with many old paint layers is scraped smooth at the edges and finished in a hard enamel.
Wallpaper Removal
Older rooms may hide paper under paint, which has to come off before a wall will take a smooth coat.
Exterior House Painting
Exteriors on older and newer Wheaton homes alike need sound prep: scraping, primer on bare wood and fresh caulk.
Staircase & Banister Refinishing
Worn handrails, newels and balusters in long-lived houses can be sanded and refinished rather than replaced.
