What Machesney Park houses have to deal with

Mid-century houses, mostly

Machesney Park was incorporated as a village in 1981, but most of its neighborhoods are older than that - ranches, split-levels and two-stories from the decades after the Second World War, with newer subdivisions further out. Houses of that age often have original trim, older drywall, and - if built before 1978 - the possibility of lead paint under later coats.

Close to the river

The village runs along the east side of the Rock River. Homes near the water and under mature trees stay damp longer after rain, which is where mildew grows on siding and where decks stay wet. Washing the surface before painting, and letting wood dry out properly, matters more on those lots.

Winters are the test

Northern Illinois winters freeze and thaw over and over. Any gap that lets water behind the paint - a split caulk joint, a soft sill, an open seam in the trim - is where paint fails first. Exterior work here starts with fixing those spots.

What we do in Machesney Park

Interior Painting — Single rooms to whole houses - walls, ceilings, trim and doors - with floors and furniture protected and the house left clean.

Exterior Painting — Siding, trim, doors, garage doors and porches - washed, repaired and repainted to stand up to Northern Illinois winters and humid summers.

Commercial Painting — Offices, retail, rental and multi-unit properties - interior and exterior repaints planned around the way your business runs.

Industrial Painting — Painting for industrial and warehouse-type facilities - walls, ceilings, structure and trim - planned around production and safety.

Cabinet Refinishing — Kitchen and bathroom cabinets cleaned, sanded, primed and refinished - a new look for the room without the cost and mess of replacing them.

Deck Cleaning, Painting & Staining — Decks cleaned, repaired where needed, then painted or stained - so the wood is protected through another Illinois winter, not just recolored.

Drywall Repair — Holes, cracks, water damage and sagging ceilings repaired, primed and painted so nobody can find where the damage was.

Plaster Repair — Cracked, loose and damaged plaster walls and ceilings in older homes repaired and painted - keeping the original walls instead of tearing them out.

Carpentry Repairs & Woodworking — Rotten trim, sills, fascia and boards replaced, and woodworking done - then painted to match, so the repair disappears into the house.

Handyman Work — The smaller repairs around a house or rental, handled by the same team that does the painting - so the job is finished, not just painted.

Every job is priced after Brandon has looked at it, and the work is done with Sherwin-Williams paint. Affordable Painting Services is A+ rated by the Better Business Bureau.
