Fast, Flexible Repaint Options
Every portfolio is different, so we offer several apartment repaint options tailored to how you manage your units.
Option 1: One Coat Refresh
Many clients choose a simple one-coat refresh. This is the most cost-effective option and often the best value for high turnover units. We apply a single coat using the existing wall color on walls, baseboards, and door frames, and can include doors or other items if needed. This covers high-wear areas and brings most apartments and condos back to a clean, “like new” appearance for easy rental.
Option 2: Revitalize and Rejuvenate
When a unit has long-term wear or new ownership, a full repaint is often the right choice. Our Revitalize and Rejuvenate option includes a total repaint of the entire unit, usually with a color change. We can take care of significant cleaning, wall repairs, caulking, and other preparation so the space truly feels renewed for the next resident.
Option 3: Touch Up and Area Paint
For buildings that maintain consistent paint and colors, we can often complete touch-ups and area painting instead of a full repaint. This involves touching up blemishes on specific walls or rooms that have seen more use, such as living rooms, kids’ bedrooms, or high-traffic hallways. When colors and products are consistent across your properties, this approach helps control costs while keeping units showing well.
Smart Color and Product Choices for Calgary Properties
We never use subgrade products. Our belief is that using good-quality paints and primers extends the life of every paint job and ultimately saves money for property managers and landlords.
To simplify maintenance, we typically recommend that clients:
• Standardize wall, ceiling, and trim colors across units wherever possible
• Use a small, consistent palette across the portfolio
• Stick with the same brand, finish, and color for repaints
This makes it easier and more cost-efficient to manage repainting and touch-ups over time.
Color selection is simple with Elite Trade Painting. We provide color charts and samples and can guide you through our suppliers’ online tools. If you are updating multiple suites or buildings in Calgary, we can help you choose a neutral, rental ready scheme that photographs well and appeals to a wide range of tenants
Painting Apartments and Condos Before Move-in
Painting before occupancy makes the job quicker and cleaner, which means cost savings for our clients. Visit here to learn how to prepare for your painters. We regularly paint empty apartments and condos prior to move-in and can provide quotes using building plans, MLS information, client descriptions, or by attending inspection dates.
Empty units require very little preparation from you. We make painting easy, but there are still a few tasks that help projects go smoothly, such as moving small items, decorative pieces, and any remaining personal belongings. Our estimators can provide a simple prep checklist tailored to your buildings.
