"We bought an old house that had walls cracking, green brush did a great job fixing those issues for us to paint, then we looked up and saw the atrocious popcorn ceiling and called Green Brish again. They smoothed, sanded, knocked out an ugly archway, and painted. It was a huge improvement for us, small improvements made a big difference."

"Excellent. Rafael saw concerns during the quoting walk-around that I had not, and he made sure they were fixed. His crew did a wonderful job, and their clean-up was good. On the final walk-around, he took seriously my small concerns, and he offered to paint a door that we both noticed now looked out-of-place next to the newly painted storm door. I was so impressed with his work that I gave Lilian Touch a bonus in the hundreds of dollars."

FAQs for exterior home or structure paint or stain projects in Chicago, IL

Painting an old or worn garage door is a budget-friendly way to refresh your home's exterior and boost its curb appeal without paying for the cost of replacement. A fresh coat of paint not only enhances the look of your garage but also helps protect it from the elements, potentially extending its lifespan. Even if there's rust present, you can address it by cleaning, priming, and painting over it for a seamless finish.

Sanding your garage door before painting is an important step that helps the paint adhere properly and last longer. It smooths out rough spots, removes peeling paint or rust, and gets rid of dirt and debris that could affect the finish. If your door has a glossy finish, lightly sanding it will also help the paint stick better.

Painting a garage door takes two to three days from start to finish, including preparation, painting, and drying time. This allows each coat to dry fully and ensures a professional-quality finish. Hiring a professional painter and taking the time to do it right helps achieve a long-lasting, durable paint job.

One gallon of paint covers close to 400 square feet, which is often enough for two to three coats on a standard one- or two-car garage door. This ensures complete coverage and an even finish, especially if the door is properly prepped and primed. If you’re using a darker color or painting over a contrasting shade, you may require more coats to achieve your desired finish.
