Lake Forest is known for large historic homes and estates on wooded lots, many designed by well-known architects in the early 1900s, alongside newer custom homes. Exteriors often combine stucco, brick, cedar shake or clapboard, and extensive trim, and many homes are big enough that planning and staging really matter.
Shade from mature trees and the nearby lake add moisture, which shows up as mildew, peeling and soft wood, especially on north-facing walls and under eaves. We wash and treat mildew, replace rotted wood, patch stucco and prime bare surfaces before painting, then work elevation by elevation so the home is never left half-finished in bad weather.
Inside, Lake Forest homes often feature formal rooms, high ceilings, paneling and detailed millwork. We protect fine floors and furnishings, keep a tidy job site, and finish trim and doors in smooth, durable enamel.
Stucco, cedar and trim repainted elevation by elevation, with repairs done first.
Shakes cleaned, mildew-treated and recoated to protect the wood.
