About Z&Z Painting
Z&Z Painting is a family run company that has cared for homes across Chicago, the North Shore, and the northwest and southwest suburbs for more than two decades. The owner, Alex, still walks most projects himself, and the same crews return job after job, which is how the work stays consistent from one house to the next.
Preparation is where the difference shows. Before any color goes on, the team power washes and scrapes exterior surfaces, sands and primes where it is needed, repairs drywall and plaster, and covers everything that is not being painted. Interiors get furniture moved and protected, floors covered, and a daily cleanup so families can keep living in the space.
Homeowners can start with a Free Estimate and add Color Consultation when a palette feels overwhelming. Premium Benjamin Moore and Sherwin Williams finishes back a two year workmanship warranty. From cabinets and decks to whole home painting, Z&Z treats each home the way it would its own.

The room was ready without drawn out delays.
