Multi-Family Condo Painting Project
CertaPro Painters® of Indianapolis
Professional Condo Painting Project
We were hired to replace siding and rotted wood in various areas of 3 multi-family condos as well as to wash, remove any peeling paint, caulk, spot prime bare wood, full prime newly installed siding, and then apply their finishing coats. The community is located on the near North side of Indianapolis. You can learn more about this commercial project below.
PROJECT INVOLVEMENT:
These multi-family style buildings had delamination of the original siding and several areas of rotten wood. They also had failures of old caulking and several issues with peeling paint. Our painters worked hard to get these buildings back into their best shape. Services provided include: Pressure washing, caulking, painting, siding replacement, and light carpentry repairs. Over the course of this project we required basic extension ladders, pressure washers, paint spray pumps, and standard carpentry tools.
SPECIAL CHALLENGES
With global supply chains disrupted, material sourcing is not as easy as it was in previous years. Carpentry and siding material costs are much higher than in the past, and finding available inventory presents challenges. In order for us to prepare for this project, material orders were placed well in advance so that we would not be faced with any inventory issues during the production process. The last thing any client or contractor wants is to get into the middle of a job and not be able to source necessary materials to complete the job on schedule.
The community could have gotten by for a couple more years without paying for full sections of siding replacement. However, this community understands that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. Proactive property maintenance can help to preserve asset values, and ensure that bigger issues don’t arise from delayed maintenance decisions.
PROJECT TIMELINE
The project took 4 days to complete. We finished this exterior project in April of 2021.
