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).

Just In!
We have just been awarded the second phase of W City Center Hotel by Centaur
Construction. The remodeling includes 7 guest room floors and the 2nd floor
meeting rooms. The schedule is fast track and has caused us to actually hire
painters during these difficult economic times.
Skyline is also currently ramping up production at the Garlands of Barrington,
Building D. 85 private residences are under contract with Pepper Construction and
are being turned over to Skyline to decorate at a pace of 4 per week. At 3,000 sf +
per residence and a 5 star quality level, the challenge is just what we like.
Finally, we have just finished the new parking structure at the Empress Casino for
O'neil Construction. A total of 6,000 gallons were applied to the underside of the
parking deck. We finished literally as the snow began to fly so the garage can
successfully open in January.

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.
