CertaPro Painters worked from drawings, architectural notes, and field verifications to create a detailed proposal and to ensure the final product is exactly what the customer expected.

Detailed Work Schedule

Detailed Work Schedule

Prior to painting, CertaPro Painters had to create a detailed work schedule that involved hotel management, hotel ownership, the general contractor, the safety director, the city, the equipment vendor, and most importantly, the neighbors. We worked closely (literally!) with the neighbors to ensure their property was protected from paint overspray and from damage.

40' Modular Swing Stages

40' Modular Swing Stages

CertaPro Painters used 2, 40’ modular swing stages that were moved independently of each other to maximize the speed of the job. Prior to painting, CertaPro removed, and replaced with new, fresh-air vent covers, applied masonry conditioner to all surfaces that were chalking, removed rust from metal lintels, removed vines from dryvit and repaired damage, performed minor masonry patching. A 2 Coat Sherwin Williams Loxon XP system was applied to create a waterproof elastomeric coating.

Internal Inspection

Internal Inspection

Once as swing stage section was completed, CertaPro Painters completed an internal inspection to ensure that each step had been fully completed. Once a swing staged is moved there is no returning to complete touchups.

120' Fin Installed

120' Fin Installed

Once completed, the general contractor delivered a 120’ Fin to be installed around a portion of the roof line. Using a massive 135’ straight boom, CertaPro was able to install the Fin to specifications in one day.
