Specialty Painting Services

Unique Surfaces, Custom Solutions — We Handle the Jobs Most Painters Avoid

Not every painting job is simple. Some surfaces require extra skill, special materials, or custom techniques—and that’s where we shine. At FreshFix Services, we offer a range of specialty services designed for homeowners and small businesses in the Chicago area who need more than just a basic wall repaint.

We’re a small, local, owner-run operation. That means no crews rushing in and out, no inflated pricing for "custom work," and no gimmicks. Just experienced, hands-on help for the tricky, detailed, or non-standard projects that still deserve professional care.

Our Promise

We believe painting is more than just a service—it’s part of how people feel in their space. That’s why we show up on time, communicate clearly, and treat your property with care. You’re not just hiring painters. You’re hiring a team that sees the details and values your trust.

Our Approach to Specialty Work

These jobs aren’t just about color—they’re about skill and prep. We start with a full walkthrough of your project, giving honest feedback about what’s possible, how to prepare the surfaces, and what products will deliver the best long-term results.

We use high-quality primers, adhesives, and coatings designed specifically for the surfaces we’re working with—because specialty work needs specialty materials.

Once work begins, we take our time to protect nearby surfaces, tape precisely, and work clean. Whether we’re spraying cabinet doors or lime washing brick by hand, we treat each project with attention and care, because results matter—especially when you’re doing something outside the norm.
