We're Erik and David. Brothers from Glenview who stain decks and paint rooms across the North Shore. 200+ jobs completed. We reply to every quote within 4 hours.

Every project quoted honestly. Every job done by us. Never a stranger on your property.
Prep, stain, and seal. So your deck or fence actually survives another Chicago summer.
Single rooms, multiple rooms, trim, ceilings. We tape, prep, and clean up like it's our own place.
Full exteriors on single story homes, plus trim and touch ups on any home. Bigger jobs we bring trusted help.
Most contractors hide behind LLCs and call centers. Our name is on the door. If something goes wrong, we're the ones making it right.
Every job starts with Erik or David. Bigger work, we bring friends we've worked with before. Never strangers.
Every quote request gets a real response within 4 hours during daytime. Most contractors take 2 to 3 days.
We give you a price before we start. If something changes, we tell you before we do the work.
If something's not right when we're done, we come back and fix it. No fine print, no runaround.
Pulled directly from Nextdoor. We don't pay for reviews and we don't write them ourselves.
