Pro Painters Toronto Durham York Interior Residential & Commercial Painting Process
1) Set-up
-
All furniture is moved to the centre of the room, away from the walls.
-
All furniture is covered with plastic. We guarantee that there will be
no drops of paint on furniture -
The remainder of the floor is covered in drop cloths
-
An area is established as a "work area" where the tools are tidely
kept and maintained
2) Preparation
-
This is the most important job in your painting project. We take it
very seriously. This differentiates our pro painting company with
the competition. Preparation is what makes the finished job look
and feel professional. -
All holes and cracks in any to-be-painted area are filled and sanded
-
Walls are checked for smoothness and proficiently sanded.
-
Imperfections on walls are fixed to ensure that a professional
job is complete -
Repaired areas are primed if necessary
-
Any other client requests (included on contract) are completed
3) First Coat of Paint
-
If the walls are painted for the first time, they are primed. A coat
of primer is applied if it is on contract -
The first coat is painted on the walls. Depending on the previous
colour and many other variables, a first coat might not be enough.
There is usually numerous "missed areas" that are seen after the
first coat of paint dries up.
4) Second Coat of Paint
-
All painting jobs usually require two coats of paint as one coat is not enough 95% of the time.
-
The second coat of paint covers all missed areas from the first coat. This coat results in the finished product; a professionally done job!
5) Inspection (Making it PRO!)
-
At the end of every job, the crew leader will inspect the entire painted area to ensure professionalism. The client is called to inspect with the crew leader if the client is available.
-
A bright light is shone on the wall so that any imperfections can be spotted and green painters tape is taped on all missing areas (if there are any)
-
The crew leader and the client go through a copy of the contract to ensure that everything on the contract has been met.
-
If the client wants anything fixed (provided that it is on the contract), it is fixed immediately.
-
The client signs off his/her satisfaction of the job and rating sheets are given to him/her to rate the performance of the crew.
6) Clean
-
All moved furniture is re-moved back to its original location
-
All tools are packed and cleaned up.
