Bellwood Color Craft Painting paints basements across Lombard — walls, ceilings, trim, and concrete floors with moisture-resistant coatings that last.
Basement painting in Lombard, IL starts at $99. Bellwood Color Craft Painting is a licensed, insured Illinois painting company that paints basement walls, ceilings, trim, and floors with moisture-resistant paints designed for below-grade spaces. A standard basement includes wall prep, drywall repair, moisture control priming, and two coats. We work throughout Lombard and surrounding DuPage County suburbs, with most basements finished in 3 to 5 days.
Basements are damp, dark, and full of uneven surfaces — regular paint fails fast down there. Our full basement painting services page covers our full statewide approach in more depth.
Standard wall paint bubbles and peels in basements with even slight humidity — you need block filler and masonry paint.
Poured concrete and block walls have to be etched and sealed or paint just sits on top and flakes off.
Exposed joists and ductwork need different coatings than drywall ceilings — one paint doesn't fit everything.
Mineral salts push through concrete walls and bubble paint from behind unless properly sealed first.
No mystery steps skipped to save time. Here's exactly what happens from first prep to final coat.
Same basement, same walls — just sealed, primed, and painted into a space you actually want to spend time in.


We're a licensed, insured painting crew based in Cook County — not a general crew that paints basements the same way they paint bedrooms. Below-grade spaces have moisture, concrete, and uneven surfaces that need specialized prep and materials. We use block filler on masonry, drywall primer on walls, and moisture-resistant paint that breathes properly. We don't rush the prep, and we don't leave until your basement looks like an extension of your main floor.
Eight steps, every basement, no shortcuts taken to hit a deadline.
We look at your basement and give a real price on the spot.
We assess for damp spots and address any issues first.
Walls get patched, concrete gets etched, and surfaces get cleaned.
