What we paint
See our work →One contractor for the whole building. From condo corridors and elevator lobbies to school summers, office interiors and full exterior envelopes — scoped, scheduled and finished by a single accountable team.
Common areas, corridors & lobbies
Hallways, elevator lobbies, stairwells and amenity spaces repainted in occupied buildings, with finishes specified to survive daily traffic.
Condo common-area painting → Commercial & officeInterior repaints for working spaces
Offices, retail, hospitality and tenant turnovers — low-VOC, after-hours where needed, so the space keeps running while we work.
Interior painting → InstitutionalSchools, healthcare & government
Summer school turnarounds, clinics, seniors' residences and public buildings — sequenced around access, safety and tight calendars.
Institutional projects → Exterior & envelopeExterior repaints & building envelope
Full exterior repaints, caulking and surface restoration timed to Ottawa's paint season — with the prep that keeps coatings on the wall.
Why exterior paint fails → Balconies & railingsRailing rust repaint & restoration
Cosmetic at a glance, structural underneath. We treat the rust, not just the colour, so the repaint actually lasts.
Balcony railing repaint → Drywall & surface prepDrywall, patching & the prep that lasts
The work under the paint decides the result. Drywall repair, skim and surface prep so corridors don't get repainted twice in a year.
