In Illinois, painting work is not a state-regulated licensed trade, but the City of Chicago requires contractors to hold permits for various construction and renovation projects. Before Blue Sky Painting or any painter begins work at your home, check whether a permit is required with the City of Chicago Department of Buildings. Many painting jobs, especially those involving structural changes, lead paint removal, or significant drywall work, will need approval from the city.

To verify a contractor's standing and check for any complaints or enforcement actions, you can use the Illinois Department of Financial and Professional Regulation's online portal. While painters as a trade are not licensed by the state, the IDFPR maintains records on other regulated professionals and provides tools to research contractor credentials and complaint history.

Before you hire, ask your painter about their experience with the specific scope of your project—whether it involves lead paint removal, exterior weatherproofing, epoxy flooring, or cabinet refinishing. Clarify whether they will obtain necessary city permits on your behalf or if that is your responsibility. Confirm the timeline, materials they plan to use, and what preparation work (sanding, priming, surface repair) they include in their estimate.
