About 8A Solutions · Wadsworth, IL

Two brothers.
One standard for
every home.

The painting job is the excuse. The relationship is the product.

Why we exist

We got tired of watching homeowners get let down.

8A started in Wadsworth with two brothers, Alex and Jose, and more than twenty years in the trades between them. We'd both seen the same thing too many times: good families paying real money for no-shows, moving goalposts, and a phone that stops getting answered the moment the deposit clears.

So we built the opposite. Hunter runs the operations, the scheduling, the updates, the answers at 9pm, so nothing slips through the cracks. And we show up for the moments that actually matter: the walkthrough, the hard call, the day the work has to be right.

Because the painting job is the excuse. The relationship is the product.

What we stand for

The stuff every contractor says.
We put it in writing.

Licensed & $1M insured

General liability through Sutton Specialty Insurance, on file and ready before we set foot on your property.

BBB accredited, 5.0 on Google

An A- rating with the Better Business Bureau and a perfect Google score, earned one real homeowner at a time.

One GC, every trade

Roofing, siding, kitchens, decks, paint. You never chase five contractors. One crew, one license, one point of contact.

We come look first

No pressure, no over-the-phone guesses. We see the house in person before anyone commits to anything.

See it before you commit

Send a photo and we render the change on your actual home. Not a swatch, not a stock image of someone else's.

The owner actually answers

Hunter handles the day-to-day, but when it matters, you get Alex or Jose. Not a call center, not voicemail.

Why we stay local

We don't go everywhere.

We keep it to Lake County on purpose. Not because we can't grow. It's because knowing the towns, the clay soil, the floodplains and the way these homes are actually built is what lets us do work that lasts. Premium work requires focus.
