Painting Services for Managed Properties

Unit Turns and Interior Painting

When a resident moves out, the unit has to be ready for the next one. We handle make-ready painting for vacant units, including walls, ceilings, doors and trim, using the colors and finish standards you set. Share your move-out and move-in dates and we will build the schedule around them. See our commercial interior painting page for more.

Common Areas, Clubhouses and Amenity Spaces

Lobbies, corridors, leasing offices, clubhouses, fitness rooms and other shared spaces shape how residents and prospects see your property. We plan common-area work in sections so the spaces people use every day stay open as much as possible.

Exterior Painting

Siding, trim, doors, railings and accents, starting with proper surface prep and pressure washing so the new finish has a sound surface to bond to. Our crews are highly skilled and trained on boom lifts and aerial platforms, so we can safely reach upper floors, tall facades, breezeways and multi-story exteriors. Learn more about our commercial exterior painting.

Breezeways, Stairwells and Parking Areas

These high-traffic, weather-exposed areas take a beating. We use durable systems such as industrial enamel for railings, doors and other metal, and urethane topcoats where a tougher finish makes sense.

Specialty Coatings

• Epoxy floor coatings for maintenance shops, laundry rooms and other hard-working floors. See commercial epoxy flooring and coating.
• Dry fall coatings for exposed ceilings
• Industrial enamel and urethane for metal and high-wear surfaces
• Complete primer-to-finish systems, interior and exterior

More Than Paint

Painting leads, and the same team can also take on roofing, pressure washing, concrete, patios and decks, renovations and gutter guards.

How We Work with Property Managers

1. Walk the property. We walk units, common areas and exteriors with you or your maintenance team and note what each area needs.
2. Written scope and estimate. You get a clear scope you can share with owners or your board. Large projects can be split into phases to fit your budget.
3. A schedule that works for residents. We plan the order of work around move-ins, resident access and amenity hours, and give you details for resident notices.
4. Consistent colors and standards. We record the colors, sheens and products used so turns, touch-ups and future repaints match across your portfolio.
5. Clean, safe job sites. Work areas stay organized and our crews clean up every day.
6. Final walk-through. We review the finished work with you and close out the punch list, with a written record of the areas, colors and products completed.

Yes. We can break a large scope, such as exteriors across several buildings, into phases so the work fits your budget cycle and the approval process for your owners or board.
