Best Painters Near Saint Francisville, IL Ranked by Chooz Score

At the time we analyzed Dillinger Painting, the company held a Chooz Score of 89.4%. It has served southern Illinois and southwest Indiana since 2023, is Accredited with the Better Business Bureau, and is registered as an Illinois business entity No. 14091629. The company is owned by Joshua Dillinger, who runs an in-house crew, and it backs its work with a two-year workmanship warranty and Painting Contractors Association membership. Across its review profiles, the company held over 50 Google reviews with a 5.0-star rating and 100% recommended on Facebook across 10 reviews. The ratings are flawless on both platforms, though the overall volume remains modest for a company operating only a few years. Careful prep and thorough cleanup are the qualities reviewers return to most, describing crews that covered furniture and floors, taped off trim, and left rooms spotless, often finishing quickly. The same names recur, owner Josh Dillinger on estimates and painters like Trey, George, and Zaken on site, and we found at least four reviewers describing repeat projects with the company. Josh Dillinger replies to nearly every review individually, naming the crew and the specific work, a level of owner engagement most profiles do not show. None of the reviews we analyzed included a critical account. "Every worker was professional, knowledgeable, and courteous from start to finish. They were so careful with prep and cleanup. I also appreciated the communication throughout. Even with a temporary crew shortage, we were completely done, drywall included, within 2 weeks." - Betsy R., Google Review

Several reviewers describe Josh working through paint colors, textures, and finishes with them, including a whitewash approach that saved a difficult pine ceiling, so if you are unsure about color or finish, it helps to bring him in early. One detailed review also describes an estimate that came with photos and a written description of the work in each room, which is worth asking for so the scope is clear before the crew starts.
