Commercial painting in Oahu, HI requires skill, speed, and understanding of island climate. Your painter must know high-rise protocols, salt-air durability, and minimal-disruption scheduling.

How We Work

From initial walkthrough to final inspection, every step is planned to keep your business running.

Site Evaluation

We inspect exterior/interior surfaces, note weather protection needs, and assess access for high-rise or multi-story projects common in Honolulu.

Prep & Surface Clean

Power washing removes salt residue, mold, and loose coatings. Masking protects windows, floors, and adjacent areas.

Material Selection

We specify marine-grade, UV-resistant coatings suited to Oahu's intense sun, humidity, and salty air.

Application & Curing

Multi-coat application with proper dry time between coats. Work scheduled around business hours and weather windows.

Final Walk & Cleanup

Inspect finished work for quality, remove all masking/protection, and leave your property cleaner than we found it.

Why Local Expertise Matters

Oahu's climate is unique. Salt, humidity, and intense UV require materials and methods most mainland contractors don't know.

Salt-Air Durability

Standard paints fail in months. We use marine-grade epoxy and polyurethane products rated for 10+ years in coastal zones.

High-Rise Safety

Honolulu's office towers and condo complexes demand fall protection, rigging, and permit coordination we handle every day.

Minimal Downtime

We schedule around business hours, manage crew flow, and use fast-drying products so your retail or office stays open.

20+ Years of Oahu-Based Experience. We've painted retail storefronts in Waikiki, office towers in Honolulu, industrial buildings in Kapolei, and residential complexes in Kailua. Every project teaches us more about what works in Hawaii.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does commercial painting in Honolulu require a permit?

Most painting-only projects do not require a building permit in Oahu. However, if your scope includes structural repairs, drywall replacement, or spall remediation, a permit may be required. We verify requirements with the Honolulu Department of Planning and Permitting (DPP) and handle all paperwork if needed.

How long does commercial painting take?

Timeline depends on project scope and size. Small storefronts take 1–3 days. Multi-story buildings or high-rise work takes weeks. Surface prep is the longest phase; application and curing happen faster with good weather and low-VOC products.

Can you paint while our business is open?

Yes. We schedule work early mornings, evenings, weekends, or during off-peak hours. Interior work uses low-VOC paints and proper ventilation so staff and customers are unaffected. We mask and protect walkways and entry points.

What paint is best for Oahu's salt-air climate?

Marine-grade epoxy, polyurethane, and acrylic latex with UV inhibitors are industry standards. Standard interior latex fails quickly on exterior surfaces. We specify products rated 7–10+ years for coastal exposure and test-apply samples on-site for approval.

Do you handle high-rise safety and rigging?

Yes. We're trained in fall protection, suspended scaffold work, and rope access. We carry full liability insurance and coordinate with building management and safety inspectors for towers and multi-story projects common in Honolulu.

Can you repair concrete spall and cracks before painting?

Yes. We assess all structural damage, repair spall with epoxy injections or patching compound, and seal cracks before applying protective coatings. This prevents salt water from re-damaging the concrete underneath.
