Frequently Asked Questions for School Painting

1. Can you complete the painting of our entire school over the summer break?

   Yes. This is our specialty. We have the project management experience and workforce capacity to schedule and execute large-scale projects within the 10-12 week summer window. We will work with you to create a detailed plan to ensure completion before the start of the new school year.

2. What kind of paint do you use to ensure it’s safe for children with allergies or sensitivities?

   We prioritize health and safety by using zero-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) paints. These products are certified for low chemical emissions and have no harsh paint fumes, making them ideal for individuals with asthma, allergies, or chemical sensitivities and ensuring superior indoor air quality for all.

3. Our school requires background checks for all on-site contractors. Can you comply with this?

   Absolutely. We fully respect and will comply with all of your district’s security requirements. We can provide all necessary documentation and ensure that every member of our on-site team meets your standards for background checks and site access protocols.
