Etobicoke’s custom home market spans waterfront condos to Kingsway estates. From lakefront properties to established neighborhoods like Mimico and The Kingsway, each build presents unique challenges requiring experienced painting crews.
We provide custom home painting services across Etobicoke’s diverse construction landscape. Builders working in this market need contractors who understand both high-rise logistics and luxury residential requirements. Our teams deliver both reliably.
Etobicoke projects taught our crews versatility. Waterfront builds face moisture challenges, luxury homes demand premium finishes, infill developments require neighborhood sensitivity. Adapting to each project type while maintaining consistent quality defines our approach.
The Three Stages of Custom Home Painting
Painting new construction differs fundamentally from renovation work. Timelines compress, coordination intensifies, site conditions vary dramatically. We don’t simply show up and start coating surfaces. We integrate with builder schedules, adapt to project-specific constraints, deliver consistent results regardless of property type. Here’s how we handle projects from beginning to completion:
Drywall Priming
When drywall taping completes, we begin priming operations. Ceilings get spray application with backrolling for even distribution. Wall surfaces receive rolled primer exclusively – no spraying. Why? Active construction sites generate continuous dust. Spray-applied walls capture airborne particles, leaving gritty surfaces. Rolling delivers cleaner finishes, faster application, reduced masking requirements. Perfect compromise between efficiency and surface quality.
Initial Painting
Initial painting begins after tile installation and carpentry completion. Optimal conditions include finished floors, mounted vanities, installed cabinetry. This sequence protects fresh coatings from subsequent trade damage. Work areas require clearing – tools removed, materials stored off-site, other trades finished. Basic site cleanliness should exist before starting.
Initial painting encompasses four stages – comprehensive preparation, precision spray work, wall coating application, and complete site restoration.
Preparations
All nail holes receive filling, damaged millwork gets repaired. We seal hundreds of joints between walls and woodwork. Windows, tiles, finished floors all receive overspray protection. Thorough preparation demands proper time allocation.
Spray Painting
Woodwork receives spray primer application, then careful sanding. Second primer layer follows, additional sanding next. Two finish coats complete the cycle, intermediate sanding between each. Four complete applications produce flawless trim surfaces. Doors receive comprehensive coverage – faces, backs, all edges.
Walls Painting, and Clean-Up
Walls undergo light sanding before initial coating. Following second application, final sanding ensures smooth results. Protection materials come down, windows and floors receive thorough cleaning. Accent walls and transitions display sharp boundaries without bleed-through.
Paint Touch Ups
Following final trade completion – plumbing, electrical, countertop installation – we return for touchup service. Any damage from their activities receives correction. Typically spans 2-4 days depending on trade volume and attention to detail.
Wall imperfections receive attention, scratched millwork gets correction, damaged areas undergo recoating. Stair staining fits perfectly at this stage with traffic eliminated. Final inspection with homeowner or builder confirms work meets expectations.
