Your office is a home away from home for many of your employees. Don\u2019t let an overdue painting project turn off potential clients! Here are 3 red flags mistakes to watch for with your commercial office painters.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">#1: Plugs<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">One of the mistakes commercial office painters make is to unplug items. Plugs that are plugged in should not be removed. Inquire with your job liaison if plugs will be unplugged. Employees should be notified ahead of time. You do not need upset staff because their work was lost and computers unplugged. It\u2019s a preventable problem with a bit of communication with your crew. As the office manager, you have the option to instruct the painters not to remove plugs.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">#2: Moving items around<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Desks are personal spaces and each employee has their own system of knowing where things are. A painting crew should not move items around on each desk. The desk should move, but not the items on it. No papers, computers, or even pens should be moved from where they were.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">#3: Walls<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">Before the painting starts, discuss whether furniture and items need to be moved from the wall. This includes plants, bookcases, credenzas and desks. It\u2019s important to let your painters know exactly what you want painted and what they are responsible for moving. Many offices will move furniture before and after the job. This offers the opportunity to save some money on preparation time, and to see the finished product without furniture in front of it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">With these three tips, you should feel confident in your painting project.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Hire an Experienced Commercial Painter<\/h2>\n<p>Don&#8217;t let an inexperienced commercial painter make these mistakes costing your business time and money.
