Four review platforms. Not one below five stars. When we last reviewed this company, Allegiant held a perfect 5.0 across more than 175 Google reviews, a 4.97 rating across nearly 40 BBB reviews, and 100% recommended on Facebook.
The Chooz Score's cross-platform analysis shows the same story wherever you look, ratings that hold steady across every site that carries them. That kind of consistency is hard to manufacture, and it's a big part of why the company earned a Chooz Score of 91.8%, one of the highest we've measured.
"The Allegiant team was terrific every step of the way! We moved from California to a newly built home in Wonder Lake , IL. The Allegiant team worked with us long distance to provide a whole house estimate. They were able to complete everything before we moved in." - Carol S., Google Review
What backs up the reviews is a stack of credentials most painters can't claim. Allegiant is a member of the Painting Contractors Association and earned the PCA's 2024 Humanitarian Award, along with Best of Fox recognition in 2024 and 2025. The company has been Accredited with the Better Business Bureau since 2023 and is registered with the Illinois Secretary of State as IL Business Entity No. 07400977.
The Chooz Score's business authority component confirmed that the registration and those affiliations are all in order. Reviewers feel the professionalism too, from office manager Stacy fielding the first call to the painters handling prep and clean-up.
"I cant stress enough the professionalism of the entire Allegiant Painting crew, office staff and painters. I appreciated their attention to detail from prep work, painting to clean-up. From start to finish, I was very impressed." - Marcia B., BBB Review
When a beloved Fox Lake landmark needed saving, Allegiant got the call. The town's giant pirate statue, known locally as Ole Peg Leg, got a full restoration, with office manager Stacy taking an interest, project manager Gloria running the job, and co-owner Taylor treating the statue like their own.
The same care shows up on bigger jobs. Allegiant is the painter of choice for the Whispering Oaks Senior Community, where close to 160 owners have to be kept happy, and the company rounds out its footprint with a long list of local charitable partnerships. This is a business rooted in the place it serves.
"Gloria (our Project Manager) and Taylor (Co-Owner), were totally into this and treated our Pirate like he was their own. Excellent care in patching and painting, suggesting changes, getting our input, etc. Both their work and their communication was top notch!" - Mike J., Google Review

Get StartedFREE SERVICEPeople don't hire Jung once and move on. They come back. Read down the reviews and you'll spot the same customers on their second, third, even their tenth project, calling the crew back every couple of years for touch-ups or the next room. That kind of return rate is what the Chooz Score's customer retention indicators reward, and Jung sits comfortably in the top band for it.
The names behind those return visits matter. Owner Bob Jung tends to meet homeowners himself, and repeat clients ask for the same leads by name, Beto and Jose on the crews, Todd managing the project, Kaitlyn helping with color. Joel Weinberger has leaned on the company for years, from full house repaints to the small touch-ups most painters never circle back for.
"We have trusted Jung Painters for many years from full house painting to touch-ups every couple years." - Joel W., Google Review
The owner still answers his reviews by name, and there are a lot of them to get through. The last time we ran our Chooz Score analysis, Jung carried a flat 5.0-star rating across over 500 Google reviews, with a reply on roughly nineteen of every twenty. In two full years of reviews, not a single month went by without one.
The recognition tracks with the reviews. Jung has been named the Naperville Area Chamber's Small Business of the Year, earned repeat Best Pick honors, and been featured locally for two decades of serving Naperville since 2004, backed by a registered Illinois business record. Altogether it earned Jung Family Painting a Chooz Score of 91.1%, among the strongest we see.
"I'm typically a pretty tough grader when it comes to work done. Must say - Jung Family Painting exceeded my expectations." - Mark W., Google Review
Most painters won't put a redo promise in writing. Jung does. The company guarantees its work and will come back to redo any issue within the first 90 days, which turns the usual after-the-job worry into something closer to a checklist. In practice the crews try to make that promise moot, doing a walkthrough at the end and returning once the paint or stain has cured to catch anything that needs a touch-up.
Eddie Curley saw it firsthand on a large multi-level deck that ran the length of his home, a two-day oil-stain job complicated by more than 250 metal spindles to work around. Not a drop landed where it shouldn't have, and the team still came back after everything dried to look for touch-ups.
"There was not a drop of stain on any of the spindles and the railings and deck surface were flawless. After the project was completed and dried, they returned to see if there were any areas requiring touch up." - Eddie C., Google Review
Jung's reviews lean heavily toward value for the money, but the company isn't the budget option, and a couple of price shoppers have said so directly. One homeowner who collected four bids found Jung came in more than 25% above the rest, and that review went unanswered. The premium usually reflects the crew size, the written guarantee, and a five-star track record built over hundreds of reviews, but it's worth understanding before you sign. Ask them directly: "Can you walk me through what's included in the quote, and what accounts for the price compared to a lower bid?"
"I received 4 quotes for my painting project, and jung family painting was by far the highest. And not by a small amount, they were over 25% higher." - John P., Yelp Review (no owner reply)
What separates Red Sky from a lot of painters is what happens after the crew packs up. Completed work comes with a two-year written warranty, and exterior metal jobs are guaranteed against rust for the same two years. That's a real program, not a handshake.
The company carries full liability insurance up to $2 million and provides certificates on request, and it holds EPA Lead-Safe certification for work on older homes. It operates as a registered Illinois business, entity No. 12030231. The paperwork is there and current.
"Dominick at Red Sky was the most reasonable by far. They did quality work and guaranteed against rust for two years." - Paul S., Google Review
If you're the type who reads every review before hiring anyone, Red Sky gives you plenty to go on. The last time we ran our Chooz Score analysis, the company held a 4.9-star rating across over 60 Google reviews, 4.8 stars on Yelp from more than 100 reviews, and 4.8 stars on Angi from more than 200 reviews.
The Chooz Score's cross-platform analysis looks for exactly this, the same high rating holding up whether customers found the company on Google, Yelp, or Angi. Add an overall Chooz Score of 87.1% and a service map that runs from Park Ridge through Evanston, Wilmette, and Winnetka, and the picture stays consistent.
"When looking to hire a painter, it can be hard to find someone that you trust, is highly skilled, has flexibility in their schedule, and is a good value. We were lucky enough to find Red Sky Painting." - Kristen P., Google Review
Some of these customers go back years. One reviewer has had Dominik paint four separate projects, from metal stairs to interiors to exteriors. Another has used the crew since 2022 across two different houses. A third just wrapped their third project.
Taken together, the repeat mentions form a clear pattern. People don't try Red Sky once, they hand them the next job, and the one after that. The Chooz Score's customer retention indicators land in the top band, with repeat business showing up in about a fifth of the reviews we analyzed, a strong sign the work holds up over time.
"Dominic and the crew have been painting our home since 2022 - 2 houses now and multiple jobs! They have a lot of experience, attention to detail, and are very efficient." - Katelyn M., Google Review
Nearly all of Red Sky's reviews are glowing, but one customer felt an exterior job got squeezed into poor conditions, and paint from an overhead metal roof dripped onto the decking and railings below when it rained. The owner replied and offered to inspect and make it right, though the customer's concern about the stained railings was not confirmed as resolved. It is a fair thing to raise up front. Ask them directly: "If rain or cold is in the forecast, how do you decide whether to paint, and what is the plan if weather affects the finish?"
"When it rained, white paint dripped onto the composite decking and wooden railings. I feel like they rushed my job and tried to fit it in in bad weather." - Chris D., Google Review
Over eighty homeowners have left reviews, and the average has barely moved. At the time of our analysis, Dr Paint held over 80 Google reviews with a 4.9-star rating, backed by 100% recommended on Facebook. The company also earned a Chooz Score of 86%.
The track record runs deeper than the star count. Dr Paint has been in business since 2008 and accredited with the Better Business Bureau since 2017, carries a 2-year limited warranty, and is a registered Illinois business entity. That is the kind of steady, cross-platform consistency the Chooz Score's analysis is built to catch.
"They are punctual, always on time, always show up and get the job done beautifully." - George Y., Google Review
Read the reviews and one compliment keeps surfacing. The pricing is fair. Homeowners describe estimates that came in lower than competitors, quotes that matched the final bill, and prices they call reasonable and competitive without anyone prompting them.
Michael Wasielewski notes Dr Paint quoted him less than most companies wanted for a single room. Others reach for words like well priced, reasonable, and competitive across dozens of reviews, and nobody complains about surprise charges or upsells. For a trade where sticker shock is common, that consistency stands out.
"Scheduling was easy, the price was right, and they did a beautiful job painting our two bedrooms." - Pauline M., Google Review
The owner doesn't just send a crew and disappear. Derek shows up on the job himself, and reviewers name him again and again, checking the work day after day. He answers questions, walks the property, and responds personally to nearly every review the company receives. That hands-on presence is what the Chooz Score's owner engagement indicators reward.
The detail work backs it up. On one job during a very cold week, his crew painted a customer's unheated garage without a hitch, alongside water-damage and drywall repairs. The owner is present, the crew is his own, and the work gets checked before anyone leaves.
"Derek was on-site checking on the work every day and his guys were just amazing... It was a very cold week but they were able to paint my non heated garage no problem." - Michael W., Google Review

Homeowners keep landing on the same feeling when they describe D&D Pro Painting, a house that suddenly looks brand new. The last time we ran our Chooz Score analysis, that enthusiasm showed up as a 4.9-star rating across over 70 Google reviews, backed by 5.0 stars on Yelp and 100% recommended on Facebook. The Chooz Score’s cross-platform analysis rewards exactly this kind of agreement from one site to the next. D&D is a registered Illinois business, Entity No. 09176543, fully insured and serving Woodridge and the surrounding DuPage and Will County towns. All told, the company earned a Chooz Score of 84.5%. "We cannot say enough wonderful things about D&D Pro Painting. Daniel and his team are professional, thorough, attentive, detail-oriented, and reliable from start to finish. They take real pride in their work, communicate well, and make the entire painting process feel smooth and well-managed." - Brandee S., Google Review
If you've ever watched a painting quote creep upward halfway through the job, the pattern in these reviews will read differently. Price comes up constantly, and always in the same direction. Customers call D&D's estimates reasonable, well worth every penny, and, in one homeowner's words, fair and transparent. One customer had tried to paint her own house first, found it was a much bigger job than she'd bargained for, and got an extremely reasonable quote with a quick timeline once she finally called Daniel. The work came in better than she'd pictured. "Attempted to paint my house independently earlier this year, ended up being a much bigger job than i had imagined! I reached out to Daniel and was quoted an extremely reasonable price and a quick timeline!! Daniel and his team finished the job efficiently and the results were even better than i pictured." - Brianna C., Google Review
Danny gets asked for by name. So does Arturo, the team's carpenter, who handles the repairs and trim that surface mid-project. Read through the reviews and the same customers keep resurfacing too, finishing one job and lining up the next. "Will be booking again," "we'll be having them back," "I will continue to use Danny and crew for all our painting needs." Roughly a third of the reviewers we read mention returning or already having returned, and high marks on the Chooz Score's customer retention indicators reflect that loyalty. One family who had lived in their home for eighteen years said a fresh coat made it feel brand new, then signed off saying they'd be rehiring for whatever comes next. "Love our new home, okay actually we’ve lived here for 18 years, but it feels brand new thanks to these amazing painters. They did an excellent job repainting our home, very detail oriented, showing up on time, going over everything with us to make sure we were completely satisfied. I highly recommend them and will be rehiring again for any future work we may need done." - kate k., Google Review
