Why Chicago Homeowners Choose R-Deco Painting and Home Improvements

A Family Business Built on Trust

When R-Deco Painting and Home Improvements opened its doors in 1993, Chicago's Jefferson Park neighborhood was already a community that valued quality craftsmanship and personal relationships. More than three decades later, those values remain at the core of everything we do. R-Deco is not a franchise or a corporate outfit — we are a family-owned business that has grown through referrals, repeat clients, and a simple commitment to doing every job right.

30+ Years of Local Experience

Working exclusively in north and northwest Chicago and the surrounding suburbs gives us an understanding of local homes that no national company can match. We know the common issues in 1920s bungalows, the layout quirks of mid-century ranches, and the material choices that hold up best against Chicago winters. This local knowledge means fewer surprises on the job and better recommendations for our clients.

Over the years, we have completed thousands of projects — from single-room paint jobs to whole-home renovations. Many of our clients have trusted us with multiple projects over the decades, and we consider that loyalty the highest compliment our work can receive.

Full-Service Home Improvements

While painting remains our foundation, R-Deco has grown into a full-service home improvement contractor. Our team handles interior and exterior painting, kitchen and bathroom remodeling, basement finishing, hardwood floor refinishing, drywall repair, carpentry, and much more. Having one trusted contractor manage multiple trades means better coordination, consistent quality, and a single point of contact for our clients.

What Our Clients Can Expect

Every R-Deco project begins with a thorough consultation and a detailed, written estimate with no hidden costs. We use premium materials, employ skilled tradespeople, pull all required permits, and stand behind our work. We are fully insured and bonded, and our subcontractors who require licenses are fully licensed. Our crew shows up on time, respects your home, and communicates throughout the project. When the final walkthrough is done, we are not satisfied until you are.

Part of the Community

Chicago's Jefferson Park neighborhood is not just where we work — it is where we live, where our children go to school, and where we spend our weekends. We are proud to be part of this community and to have played a small role in maintaining and improving the homes that make this area such a special place to live. If you are considering a painting or home improvement project, we would be honored to earn your trust.
