Interior Renovation Project for The Bok Play Cafe

When the BOK Play Cafe in Danforth, Ontario, embarked on a comprehensive interior renovation, they chose CertaPro Painters of East York and Don Mills for their expertise in commercial painting. Our task was to revitalize the café’s interior, covering all main surfaces and trims, and we delivered the project ahead of schedule in just six days. The owners were thrilled with the quality and speed of our work, echoing the satisfaction of many other clients we’ve served.

Project Scope and Preparation

The interior of the BOK Play Cafe presented a sizable challenge due to its large surface area and complex features. The project required meticulous preparation to ensure that every inch of space—from walls and ceilings to intricate trims and unique decorative elements like portholes—received a flawless finish.

Challenges and Strategies

One of the significant challenges was working around permanent fixtures such as light fixtures and a prominently visible air duct. These elements needed to be incorporated into the new color scheme to create a cohesive look. Our team also faced the task of removing and separately painting portholes to maintain the high standards expected in a commercial setting.

Another hurdle was the in-progress condition of the café, which included dangling wires and ongoing construction activities. Despite these obstacles, our experienced painters skillfully navigated through the renovation chaos, ensuring that each area was treated with care and precision.

Execution and Innovation

The renovation required several steps, starting with patching and repairing any damaged drywall to ensure a smooth painting surface. We then proceeded with the careful application of vibrant new colors, chosen to inject energy and warmth into the café’s atmosphere. The painting of the air duct was a particular focus, as its prominence in the space meant that its appearance would significantly impact the overall aesthetic.

Capturing the Cafe’s New Vibe

The transformation of the BOK Play Cafe was marked by the application of lively accent walls in the main areas, adding vibrancy and a welcoming feel to the environment. Neutral shades were used selectively to maintain a touch of elegance, particularly behind the coffee bar, where subtlety in color helps highlight the products and services offered.

In addition to aesthetic enhancements, functional spaces such as offices and collaborative areas were also upgraded. Freshly painted walls and repaired drywall created a conducive environment for both relaxation and productivity, reflecting the dual-use nature of the café.
