Join us in metro Vancouver as we tour this commercial repaint. If you’ve ever noticed your wood siding or fencing starting to bubble, peel, or look patchy, chances are a film-building product—like a clear coat—was applied instead of a penetrating stain.
For this commercial painting job, the finish on the wood was failing because the clear coat created a surface film that traps moisture underneath. When that happens, the only real solution is to strip the entire surface before refinishing. That’s a lot of extra work and cost that could’ve been avoided with the right product choice from the start.
In some commercial or high-exposure areas, it makes more sense to switch to paint. Paint offers a full barrier that lasts longer than clear finishes in extreme weather—especially when there’s no overhang or shade to shield the wood.
With over 20 years of experience, you can count on Powell Painting to do it right the first time. We choose products that suit the environment, not just the look. Whether it’s staining or painting, we’ll guide you toward the best outcome for your home or property—because we’re damn good, and we care.
