Why Hire us?
The reason people hire us is because of our people. Our field personnel are the
best tradesmen in Chicago. They are highly skilled and motivated, well schooled in
safety, and are not satisfied until the project quality exceeds the customer's
expectations. They do that by doing it right the first time and then checking their
work (just in case). Our office personnel are also some of the best in Chicago. They
take a proactive approach to managing painting projects by identifying and solving
problems before they really become a problem on the job site (when it is too late).

Sustainable Practices Everyday
Skyline has completed over ten LEED certified projects to include HSBC's 600,000
s.f. North American headquarters as its first. While it has been a challenge to
retrain our field person to select and use all low or zero VOC products, we have
found that it has been so successful at reducing our generation of hazardous waste,
we have adopted all low VOC water based products as our standard line up. This
has allowed us to eliminate the use of solvents. For cleaning oily pipes, we are
using vinegar and for stripping old paint, orange and lemon based products. As part
of our lease renewal, we negotiated the replacement of the landlord's 30 year old
furnace with a new, more energy efficient one. We also asked for and the landlord
was generous enough to replace our old overhead dock door with an insulated,
better fitting one. Paying rent on time has it's benefits. We are looking forward to
lower energy bills this winter.
