Scope and approach
Define surfaces before colors.
List the elevations and surfaces to be painted. Siding, trim, doors and railings can need different preparation and coating approaches. Separate retained surfaces from included work so color discussions do not hide missing quantities. A clear surface schedule helps ownership review the full property refresh.
Preparation belongs in the scope.
Agree cleaning, scraping, patching, caulking and priming appropriate to the included surfaces. Identify failed substrate or cladding that needs review first. Paint is not presumed to resolve underlying deterioration.
Surface schedule, finish and approved color locations.
Defined preparation and separately listed substrate repairs.
Protection for windows, landscaping and adjacent property.
Approve the appearance in place.
Review colors against existing roofing, masonry and windows. An included sample area can confirm palette and sheen in the property's light. Keep the approved color and location record available through every building phase.
Plan resident-facing work.
Discuss balcony belongings, parked vehicles, entrances and windows near active work. Agree notice responsibilities, work periods and weather dependencies. Record touch-ups and exceptions by elevation for final review.
What to bring.
Which buildings and surfaces are included, and which stay?
Is there an approved color schedule or ownership review ahead?
What peeling, staining, failed caulk or substrate damage is visible?
What balcony, vehicle and building-access arrangements can the property provide?
From review to agreed work
Plan the scope.
Build a surface schedule.
Review areas, existing coatings and preparation questions; separate repair work from coating work.
Confirm colors and preparation.
Approve the finish schedule and any agreed sample, then establish protection and access responsibilities.
Review by elevation.
Sequence application around conditions and access, tracking coverage, touch-ups and closeout against the schedule.
Yes. Include approval in the project plan. Color schedules and any included sample should be approved before ordering and application depend on that decision.
Is damaged siding included in painting?
Only expressly listed repairs are included. Deteriorated siding or another underlying condition may need a separate scope or approved change before coating proceeds.
