| What Do We Do? Skyline Decorating is a commercial, union painting and wall covering contractor known for its high level of service and attention to detail. Opened in 2002, Skyline has grown steadily by consistently choosing an emphasis on quality over profit. |
| 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 often too late). |

| Sustainable Practices Everyday Skyline has completed over twenty LEED certified projects to include HSBC's 600,000 s.f. North American headquarters as its first. Currently Skyline's standard use products are all low or zero VOC products. The single most important thing Skyline does to reduce its footprint is give away our leftover job stock. We place an ad on Craigslist and in two hours, all of our paint is gone. Seeing the smiles on peoples faces when they walk out of the warehouse with enough paint to do their project makes it all worthwhile. Schools, churches, individuals, and business owners all participate and it is clear "one man's trash is another's treasure". |
| Just In! We are happy to say we have been awarded several attractive jobs at a time when jobs are extremely difficult to find. In 2008, we did 44 showrooms at the Merchandise Mart for the NeoCon show. After the economic melt down in late 2008/09, we did 3. Today we are doing 90 and at this point, turning over 5 a day. Many thanks to Tim at Bear, Jamie at O'neil, Bob Traut, The Merchandise Mart staff, and the tenants with whom we contract directly. Units include Milliken Carpet, Herman Miller, Tandus, Davis Furniture, OFS brands among the many. Most important and rewarding for Skyline are the wall covering showrooms we do. Each year, we are sought by the top wall covering manufacturers Maharam, Wolf Gordon, Carnegie and Donghia to do their newest and most difficult patterns to display at the show. We have also been recently awarded a two floor build out at the W Hotel on Adams with Level Construction, the entertainment area at the Hollywood Casino Aurora with W.E. O'neill, and the maintenance contract with the new owner, Capital One, of the 600,000 sf HSBC building in Mettawa, Illinois. |
