Stucco & Concrete Painting

Proper surface preparation is essential for a top quality paint finish. The main causes for paint failure are:
  • Incomplete or improper surface preparation.
  • Improper fittings around house (ie. failed caulking) permitting moisture to seep into openings.
  • Wood touching moist ground.
  • Poor ventilation.
  • Painting over damp surfaces.
  • Poor quality paint or improper mixing of paint.
  • Careless application.
At Commercial Painting & Renovations Ltd. we use only the best quality paint available on the market. Good paint offers excellent colour retention as well as protection from:
  • An unpredictable environment.
  • Damaging weather.
  • Sunlight and ultraviolet radiation (UV).
  • Water and moisture.
  • Ice and snow.
  • High humidity.
  • Drastic temperature changes.
