Flexible, waterproof coating for stucco and concrete. Fills small cracks and provides superior weather protection. Ideal for building exteriors in rainy climates.
Epoxy Parkade Flooring
Tough, long-lasting floor coating for underground parking. Resists vehicle traffic, salt, and chemicals. Makes parkades brighter and easier to maintain.

Strata Painting Questions Answered
What Property Managers Ask Us
How much does strata painting cost?
It varies widely based on building size, number of units, and scope of work. Small complexes might be $50,000-$100,000 for complete exterior painting. Larger properties can be $200,000-$500,000+. We provide detailed breakdowns by building and scope for accurate budgeting.
How long will the project take?
Small complexes (20-40 units) typically take 3-6 weeks. Larger developments (100+ units) may take 2-4 months. We provide detailed schedules showing exactly when each building will be painted.
How do you minimize resident complaints?
Through careful planning and communication. We notify residents well in advance, work during reasonable hours, maintain access to buildings, and respond quickly to any concerns. Our systematic approach keeps disruption minimal.
Can you work with our property manager?
Absolutely. We coordinate closely with property managers, provide regular updates, attend council meetings, and handle resident questions professionally. We make your job easier.
What’s included in your preparation work?
Pressure washing, surface repairs, wood rot replacement, crack filling, caulking, priming, and complete surface prep. We fix underlying problems before painting to ensure long-lasting results.
Can you paint in winter?
Interior work can be done year-round. Exterior painting requires dry weather and temperatures above 10°C—typically late spring through early fall in the Lower Mainland. We’ll help you schedule during the best weather windows.
Do you provide warranties?
Yes. We guarantee our workmanship and use quality materials designed for multi-family applications. Warranty details are included in our proposals and documentation.
How often should strata buildings be repainted?
Exteriors typically need repainting every 8-12 years depending on exposure and coating quality. Interior common areas may need refreshing every 5-7 years based on traffic levels.
Can you paint balconies without entering units?
Most balcony painting can be done from the outside. For some work, we may need brief access through units. We coordinate this carefully with residents and property managers.
Do you handle parkade line striping?
Yes. We provide complete parkade services including floor coatings, wall/ceiling painting, and traffic line striping to current standards. We can also update stall numbers and signage.
Are you insured for commercial work?
Yes. We carry comprehensive commercial liability insurance appropriate for multi-family properties. We’re also a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating.
Can you provide references from other strata councils?
Absolutely. We’re happy to provide references from similar properties we’ve completed. Many of our clients are repeat customers who trust us for ongoing maintenance.
