As the leading painting company in Vancouver, with a team of Vancouver painters with combined decades of experience, there is no one you would be better off turning to for your residential or commercial painting needs than the experts at EB Painting. While many of our clients have a Vancouver painting project in mind when they come to us, few seem to recognize the real difference between residential painting projects and commercial painting projects. If you, too, are curious about the differences between residential and commercial painting, we will spell some of that out for you below!
The Nuts and Bolts
At the most basic level, residential projects tend to be smaller and less complex than commercial alternatives. Most Vancouver residential painting projects require fewer painters and less materials. Commercial projects, on the other hand, are often logistically complex and include much more variables including the considerations of employees, customers, use of the space, and much more.
The Difference in Materials
When it comes to Vancouver painting projects, one of the starkest differences between commercial and residential jobs is the materials used. Because residential painting jobs tend to be smaller-scale the tools required are also simpler. Residential painters rely on brushes, rollers, drop cloths, ladders, and cleaning materials – not unlike the materials you may use should you choose to paint your house on your own. Alternatively, commercial painters will generally rely on a much more complex array of tools and materials. Gear such as pressure washers, sandblasters, scaffolding, lifts, extendable ladders, and paint sprayers are often called into action and generally require an experienced hand to operate effectively.
Staffing
While not a hard and fast rule, generally speaking, commercial painting gigs will draw the most experienced painters. Because these jobs are more unique, complex, logistically challenging, and riskier most every painting company will send their A-team on commercial jobs. That said, no company will send bad Vancouver painters to handle your residential space. These jobs just tend to be more uniform, familiar, and safer which makes a perfect proving ground to new or less experienced painters. Fortunately for you, the team at EB Painting is the A+ team with the skills to handle your commercial or residential painting job with equal aplomb.
