Multi-Floor Commercial Hallway Painting at a Cherry Creek Office Building
A Case Study by CertaPro Painters® of Fort Collins
Project Overview
In March 2026, CertaPro Painters® of Fort Collins completed a multi-floor interior hallway painting project at a professionally managed office building in Denver’s Cherry Creek neighborhood. The project included three full floors of common area hallways, with painting services performed on walls, baseboards, and wall-color door frames throughout the building.
To provide long-term durability in a high-traffic commercial environment, the project was completed using Benjamin Moore Scuff-X®, a premium coating specifically designed to resist scuffs, abrasion, and routine wear. The work was carefully coordinated to minimize disruption to tenants and maintain a professional appearance throughout the project.
About the Facility
Located in Denver’s Cherry Creek business district, the multi-story office building serves a diverse mix of commercial tenants and visitors. The surrounding area is known for its combination of office, retail, hospitality, and professional service businesses, making appearance and upkeep important considerations for property management teams.
As one of Denver’s most active commercial corridors, Cherry Creek properties are expected to maintain a polished, professional image that reflects the quality of the businesses they serve. Shared spaces such as hallways and common areas play a significant role in creating positive first impressions for tenants, employees, and guests.
CHALLENGES:
Years of daily use had left the hallways showing visible signs of wear. Previous touch-up efforts had created inconsistent color and sheen levels throughout the corridors, resulting in a patchwork appearance that could not be fully corrected through additional spot repairs.
The project also required deteriorated caulking to be addressed along baseboards and around door frames, while various wall surfaces required drywall repairs, spot priming, and preparation prior to painting.
Because the building remained occupied throughout the project, CertaPro Painters needed to maintain a clean, professional work environment while carefully protecting adjacent surfaces, including wood trim, paneling, doors, and ceiling areas. Coordinating work across three occupied floors required detailed planning, consistent communication, and ongoing quality control.
OUR SOLUTIONS:
CertaPro Painters developed a phased approach that allowed work to be completed efficiently while minimizing disruption to tenants and daily building operations.
The scope of work included:
- Interior hallway painting across three floors
- Drywall repair and spot priming
- Caulking at baseboards and door frames
- Surface preparation and cleaning
- Precision masking and protection of adjacent surfaces
- Full-coverage application of Benjamin Moore Scuff-X®
A dedicated Production Manager coordinated scheduling, material staging, quality control, and project sequencing throughout the duration of the project. Regular inspections and walkthroughs helped ensure consistent results across all three floors before final completion.
Before Photos
Prior to repainting, the hallways showed the cumulative effects of daily commercial use. Multiple rounds of touch-up work had created visible differences in color and sheen throughout the corridors, while scuffs, surface wear, and aging caulk detracted from the building’s overall appearance. Rather than continuing with isolated repairs, ownership elected to pursue a comprehensive repainting program designed to restore consistency across all three floors.
During Photos
Preparation played a critical role in achieving a uniform finished appearance throughout the building. CertaPro crews completed drywall repairs, spot priming, caulking, masking, and surface preparation before applying finish coats. Careful protection of adjacent surfaces and ongoing quality control helped ensure clean lines and consistent results while allowing tenants to continue using the building throughout the project.
After Photos
The completed project delivered a clean, consistent appearance throughout all hallway spaces while eliminating the patchwork effect created by years of touch-up painting. Fresh coatings, renewed caulk lines, and uniform color and sheen levels helped modernize the corridors and reinforce the professional image expected within a premier Cherry Creek office property. The upgraded Scuff-X® coating system will also help maintain that appearance longer by providing increased resistance to everyday wear.

Technical Specifications
Premium Hallway Coating System
Benjamin Moore Scuff-X® was specified for all painted surfaces throughout the hallways. The product was selected for its superior resistance to scuffing, abrasion, and routine cleaning, making it particularly well-suited for heavily trafficked commercial corridors.
Surface Preparation
Existing wall surfaces were repaired, spot primed, and prepared prior to painting. Areas with previous touch-up work received full-coverage repainting to eliminate inconsistencies in sheen and color.
Caulking and Detail Work
Deteriorated caulking was removed and replaced where necessary along baseboards and around door frames to create clean transitions and a finished appearance.
Protection and Masking
Extensive masking and protection procedures were implemented throughout the project to safeguard adjacent architectural elements, including paneling, trim, doors, and ceiling surfaces.
