Exterior Staircase Renovation in Longmont, CO

CertaPro Painters® Business & Commercial Services was hired by a property manager to complete an exterior painting project at a large apartment complex in Longmont, CO. The focus of this project was refreshing and protecting the exterior staircases, which are heavily used by residents and exposed to the elements year-round.

About the Project:

Condition of Facility:

Before our team began, the staircases showed visible wear and deterioration from weather exposure and daily use. Paint was faded and peeling in several areas, and rust had started to develop on the metal surfaces. These conditions not only impacted the overall appearance of the apartment community but also raised concerns about long-term durability and safety if left untreated.

Project Involvement:

  • Surface preparation including scraping, sanding, and rust removal
  • Priming and painting exterior staircase railings, spindles, and metal supports
  • Applying high-performance exterior coatings designed to withstand heavy traffic and Colorado’s changing weather conditions
  • Light carpentry touch-ups where surfaces needed reinforcement

Special Challenges:

Working on multi-level exterior staircases required careful planning to ensure both resident safety and crew accessibility. The property remained fully occupied during the project, so our team scheduled work to minimize disruption to tenants.

Special Equipment & Techniques:

To complete the project safely and efficiently, our crews used:

  • Ladders for elevated access
  • Commercial-grade primers and protective coatings for long-term durability
  • Rust-inhibiting paint systems to protect metal stair components

Additional Information:

The finished result was freshly painted, durable staircases that enhanced the curb appeal of the apartment community and provided long-lasting protection against the elements. The property manager was pleased with both the quality of workmanship and the efficient project timeline, ensuring the staircases were safe and visually appealing for residents.
