What This Engagement Covers.
Interior Painting
CSI 09 91 23Interior painting for commercial and residential spaces, clean lines, uniform finishes, and work sequenced around the people using the building.
- Wall, ceiling, and soffit coatings
- Trim, doors, frames, and millwork finishing
- Exposed structure and dryfall applications
- Accent walls and specialty finishes
Commercial Painting
CSI 09 91 00Full commercial painting packages for general contractors, developers, and owners, new construction, tenant finish-outs, and remodels held to the construction schedule.
- Full Division 09 painting packages for new construction
- Tenant finish-outs delivered to lease commencement dates
- Remodels phased around trading hours and occupants
- Multi-site and rollout programs to a brand prototype standard
Protective Coatings
CSI 09 96 00High-performance protective coatings for steel, concrete, and equipment, selected against chemical exposure, washdown, abrasion, and weather.
- Structural steel protective systems
- Chemical- and washdown-resistant wall coatings
- Tank exteriors and equipment coatings
- Secondary containment systems
What Goes On the Wall, and What Happens First.
Coatings are specified against the substrate and the service the surface has to take, then confirmed with the manufacturer before pricing. Nearly every finish that fails early fails in preparation, not in the can, so preparation carries its own line and its own sign-off.
- Gypsum Board
- Primer plus two finish coats per the finish schedule
- Trim and Doors
- Waterborne or alkyd enamel per the schedule
- High-Touch Areas
- Scrubbable, high-hide washable systems
- Occupied Spaces
- Low-VOC systems with minimal cure odor
How This Job Was Run.
- 02
Scope Review
Scope gaps cause more disputes than any finish issue. We walk the scope line with the general contractor before award, which surfaces, which side of the demising wall, whose doors, whose ceilings, and put the answer in the contract instead of discovering it during construction.
- 04
Surface Preparation
Cleaning, profiling, moisture and adhesion testing where warranted, substrate repair, and priming to the manufacturer specification. Preparation is priced as its own line item so it is visible, and so a budget reduction is a decision not something that quietly happens.
- 06
Quality Control
We run our own quality-control inspection ahead of the general contractor's walkthrough. Coverage, sheen uniformity, cut lines, and adjacent-surface condition are checked and corrected before anyone else is asked to look at the work.
- 08
Project Closeout
Attic stock, the approved color schedule, product data, and the one-year workmanship warranty are delivered as a package at turnover. Warranty support continues after closeout. A call after closeout gets the same response as a call during construction.
Two Buildings in One
Dining rooms get decorative and accent finishes under close visual scrutiny. Kitchens, prep, and dish get epoxy or scrubbable systems rated for washdown. We specify them separately and price them separately, so neither gets value-engineered into the wrong product.
Small Site, Many Trades
A 3,000 SF restaurant can have six trades working at once in the last two weeks. We coordinate directly with millwork, equipment, and flooring so painting happens in the right order and does not get damaged the day after it is finished.
