17 Best Painters Near Lake Forest, IL Ranked by Chooz Score

At the time we analyzed Big League Painting, the company held a Chooz Score of 91.8%. It has operated as a Glenview painting company since 2017, has been Accredited with the Better Business Bureau since 2025, and is registered in Illinois as business entity No. 06126189.

Strong ratings across four independent platforms at this volume are uncommon, since most companies carry at least one weaker or much thinner profile.

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.

When we ran our analysis, Fulton Revivals - Cabinet Painters & Whole Home Painting held over 120 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating, along with 4.3 stars on Yelp across over 10 reviews. A 5.0 average at more than 120 reviews is uncommon at that volume, and the much smaller Yelp profile sits a step below it.

The company earned a Chooz Score of 90.0%. Over 50 of the reviews we analyzed name the specific project performed, and at least 15 of them include customer photos. Fulton Revivals has been in business for over five years and is family-run by owners Joe and Krystal Haynes, who work out of a shop on South Union Avenue in Chicago. The company describes itself as an EPA Lead-Safe Certified Firm, publishes a written Craftsmanship Warranty, and serves the city and the surrounding suburbs.

At the time we analyzed Sunpainting, the company held a Chooz Score of 89.0%. It has painted homes across the Chicago North Shore for more than 25 years and is registered as Illinois Business Entity No. 71092194. Owner Paul Danek keeps the work in-house rather than using subcontractors, and the company carries two million dollars in general liability coverage.

Across its review profiles, the company held over 160 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating, along with 4.9 stars on Angi across over 65 reviews and a 5.0-star rating on Yelp. Near-perfect ratings holding across three separate platforms, one of them carrying dozens of reviews on its own, are unusual.

What sets Rhino Shield apart from a standard paint job is the one thing customers keep circling back to. It isn’t paint. It’s a ceramic coating system carrying a 25 year transferable warranty, and for homeowner after homeowner, that warranty is the reason they signed. People call it a "one and done" fix, the last time they’ll think about their exterior for decades, and because the coverage transfers, it follows the house to the next owner.

The coating earns that promise on tough surfaces, not just clean ones. One homeowner's Dry-Vit stucco was cracking all over, with open holes and birds nesting in the gaps, and Rhino Shield sealed the house tight against the weather and the wildlife alike. Read through the reviews and you'll find the same relief again and again, homeowners glad they won't be back on a ladder for years.
