Gallagher Paint and Paper was founded by Danny, Jaclyn, and Brian to bring a higher level of craftsmanship and professionalism to residential painting and wallpaper installation.
From a single room refresh to a full-home transformation, you’re not just getting a fresh coat of paint — you’re getting a family’s pride, attention to detail, and the satisfaction of work done with care.
"We Honor The Trust It Takes To Invite Us Into Your Home"
We serve homeowners across Chicagoland with integrity, accountability, and the craftsmanship our family name stands for.
We provide residential painting, wallpaper installation, drywall repair, and surface preparation services for homeowners across Chicagoland who value craftsmanship, reliability, and lasting results.
One of the biggest concerns when hiring painters? The mess. Our "Clean-As-You-Go" policy is more than a slogan it's how we protect your home. We don't just finish the job; we restore your home's peace every single day.
We protect floors, furniture, and surrounding surfaces using professional drop cloths and protective coverings before work begins.
At the end of each day, we organize tools, clear walkways, and leave your home clean and comfortable.
We complete a detailed final walkthrough to ensure every surface meets our standards for craftsmanship and cleanliness.
We had Gallagher Paint & Paper come in to tackle our master bedroom and hallway. Honestly, I was stressed—picking colors, worrying about dust, you name it. But from the first call, they put me at ease. No pressure, no fluff, just straight-up good people doing solid work. If you want a crew that’s reliable, respectful, and really knows their stuff, these are the folks.
We had another crew do a room before, but the paint was off, and the wallpaper looked washed out. Felt like we wasted money. Then we called Gallagher Paint & Paper to fix it. They didn’t just match the paint; they picked a finish that made the wallpaper pop, like the room finally came alive. Clean, no fuss, and they treated our house like their own. If you’re cleaning up someone else’s mess, call these guys. They’ll get it right.
We had our kitchen painted by Gallagher Paint & Paper, and man, what a difference. It was dated, tired-looking, and I’ll admit, I was skeptical one coat could do much. But they picked a color that opened the whole space up, and the finish? Tough enough for splatters, steam, and sticky little hands. They were in and out fast, left zero mess, and now the kitchen feels like a whole new part of the house. Didn’t think I’d get excited about walls and trim—but I am. Solid crew. Would call them again in a heartbeat.

From the first conversation to the final walkthrough, we focus on communication, preparation, and detail-driven craftsmanship — ensuring a smooth experience and exceptional results.
