How long has it been since your commercial building has had a new, fresh coat of paint — both interior and exterior? If you’ve been putting off that important investment, here are some reasons for and benefits of painting your commercial building or office.

Nothing surpasses the skill of a professional commercial painter when it comes to presenting a professional image, assuring longevity, and achieving results that will instill pride for years to come. With that in mind, Ai Painting Plus has some important tips about why hiring a professional is critical for your company.

• Protection from the elements.

Paint protects your building’s exterior from moisture, harsh sun, and pests. Coatings with special properties can increase heat, mold, and corrosion resistance. All are important ways to protect your building from expensive property damage and can help improve employee safety.

• Cost-effective upgrades.

Regular upgrades are vital in keeping your building in good condition. A new paint job is often one of the most cost-effective upgrades available. They tend to have a rather high ROI, because they both raise the value and improve the appearance of the building at minimal cost. There’s a reason that a new paint job is standard for homes that are being prepared for the real estate market; a new paint job just makes it look better. This goes a long way toward ensuring that your building makes the best first impression possible.

• Preventative maintenance.

• When there are cracks or other issues on the walls, bugs or water can infiltrate into the building. This can lead to expensive pest control or damage repair costs. A new paint job can seal these cracks, which prevents the issues from ever occurring. In addition, a commercial paint job may also allow you to discover issues with the walls in your building in the early stages, before the repair expenses escalate to exorbitant proportions.

• Improved customer perceptions.

Potential clients or customers will notice poorly maintained interiors and exteriors that show signs of fading, peeling, or cracking paint. A freshly painted building conveys that your business is welcoming and that you offer quality products or services. This goes a long way toward creating a superior first appearance, which can have a dramatic impact on your existing customer base, as well as drawing new customers to your property.

• Competitive advantage.

Businesses are competitive by nature. Every customer that you obtain is a customer that your competitors lose- but the same thing works in reverse. It is important to take all the steps to give you a competitive advantage to remain successful in any industry. When you improve your commercial building's appearance, you will draw in more customers and help reassure existing customers of the continued quality of your products or services. Potential customers will be wary of obtaining your services if your company’s building looks old or worn down, which happens when paint jobs wear out.  

• Boost productivity. Employees are often prouder to work in a nice-looking building than one that has become worn down. A new paint job can instantly improve morale in the office, which leads directly to improved productivity. A cheerful, well-kept office is generally far more productive than one with a shabby paint job.

When you decide to hire a professional to paint your commercial building, be sure to ask for references and check them out. Make sure the painter has the necessary licenses and insurance to complete the job. And be sure to find out what similar work and projects the company has completed. Ai Painting Plus is ready to answer all your questions and to show you referrals that back up these tips and benefits.
