About this trade
Commercial painting in Calgary is sequencing. TI projects need paint within a 1-3 day window between drywall finishing and trim. Brand repaints often need overnight work. Epoxy floors need substrate moisture testing and 24-hour cure windows.
Syndex narrows the list to commercial crews currently free. WCB verified, manually reviewed.

What to know when hiring
Four things GCs check before they sign.
Spec the paint, not just the finish
Latex vs alkyd, sheen, VOC limits — these all matter for commercial spaces. Have the spec sheet ready before quotes.
Substrate prep is the cost driver
Repaint quotes vary wildly based on assumed prep. Walk the space with the painter and agree on prep level before pricing.
Schedule around dust trades
Painters can't follow drywall sanders. Get the dust trades closed out before paint mobilizes.
Epoxy floors need moisture testing
Concrete substrate moisture above spec causes epoxy failure. Confirm the painter's moisture testing protocol before pour day.
