Painters Serving Northfield, IL Since 1969
Northfield is a smaller village with a lot of character, brick and shingle homes that have aged well. Kraft has called this town home for years, and so have a lot of families we have painted for. We like the pace here. It is the kind of place where word gets around when you do good work, and we count on that.
Brick and shingle exteriors each want a different approach, and mixing them up is how you end up with a paint job that fails in patches. We match the prep and the product to the surface. Trim, fascia, and soffits take the worst of the weather here, so that is where we spend the extra time.
What We Paint in Northfield
- Interior painting: walls, trim, ceilings, and cabinetry, with the prep that makes the finish last.
- Exterior painting: siding, soffits, fascia, brick, and stucco that can take the North Shore weather.
- Deck and fence staining: stripped, cleaned, and sealed so it holds up season after season.
- Front door and garage door refinishing: brought back to life, grain and all.
- Commercial painting: offices, storefronts, schools, park district buildings, and multi-unit properties.
- Color guidance: honest advice so you still love the color years after we pack up.
Interior Painting in Northfield
Northfield is minutes from our shop, and we have painted the inside of its ranches, colonials, and larger newer homes for decades. Interior jobs here lean toward whole-house repaints when a home changes hands, trim and cabinet refreshes, and matching new additions to the original rooms so you cannot see where one ends and the other begins. Furniture is moved and covered, floors protected, and low-VOC products keep the house livable.
Exterior Painting in Northfield
Northfield exteriors see the same freeze-thaw and tree cover as the rest of the North Shore, and the same mix of cedar, brick, stucco, and trim. We scrape and spot-prime wood, recaulk every joint, use breathable coatings on masonry, and finish with two coats of a quality acrylic in dry weather. Because we are so close, we can start sooner and come back faster if anything needs attention.
