Business Details
Beyond painting, we offer carpentry, millwork and other building improvements to modernize and maximize the value of your property. After two decades of working around large-scale properties, we can pinpoint problem areas and required maintenance for your building. Our specialized crews can seal cracks and gaps to ensure the integrity of exterior surfaces.
As our company grows, a growing question was brewing within our organization: to achieve consistency at all job site regardless of which crew was doing the job, what is the best painting procedure to adopt? This becomes especially important in the areas in which we specialize: multi-unit residential complexes, high-rise buildings, warehouses, commercial facilities and institutions.
Through lengthy research and review, we decided that the PDCA standard painting procedures would be the best for our business. Prostar Painting and Restoration Ltd. can help restore and re-energize your commercial building. Over time, all buildings will show effects of everyday wear and tear, including coating adhesion failure, dirt and mildew buildup, sealant failure and other deficiencies.

Painting Related
Many factors determine the amount of paint used in a project such as, the type of surface being covered, the colour of the existing surface, and the colour of the chosen paint.
A general rule is to calculate the square footage of the surfaces to be painted and divide by the number of square feet that your selected paint indicates it can cover.
For best results, talk to one of our project managers or take your measurements and paint information to your local paint retailer.
When it comes to paint, at the retail level, you get what you pay for.
