SCOPE OF THE PROJECT:

This commercial repaint focused on the exterior of a large metal building located in a working marina. The structure had significant surface damage caused by years of exposure to marine elements, including fading, oxidation, and visible wear.

Our client sought to restore the building’s appearance with a vibrant new color that aligned with their branding, while also reinforcing its durability against continued weather and moisture.

The CertaPro team pressure washed and prepared the siding, applied rust and oxidation treatments, and painted the entire structure using high-performance Sherwin-Williams industrial coatings designed for marine environments.

The result was a dramatic transformation from a dull green to a vibrant blue that now stands out as a local landmark in the marina.

SPECIAL TECHNIQUES AND CONSIDERATIONS:

Because the building is located directly over water, environmental safety was a top priority throughout the project. The team followed strict containment and runoff prevention protocols to ensure no debris or paint materials entered the marina.

Surfaces were carefully cleaned and prepped with oxidation-neutralizing treatments before priming.

Additionally, the use of industrial-grade coatings meant the new finish was not only eye-catching but also highly durable—engineered to withstand waterfront conditions long-term. The attention to both safety and performance showcases CertaPro’s ability to handle technically challenging projects without compromising quality.

PROJECT TIMELINE:
