Apartment, condo and HOA painting
Apartment, condo and HOA painting across Atlanta
Property work runs on deadlines: a unit has to be rent-ready, a board has approved a color, residents need their doors and stairs back. We plan the painting around those dates.

Quick answer
Apartment and HOA painting in Atlanta is mostly scheduling. Unit turnovers need patching, a standard color and fast cleanup between tenants; common areas are painted in phases so residents can move through; and HOA exteriors follow the board's approved colors building by building. We agree a written sequence with the manager or board before we start.

The job
Working for managers, owners and boards
Most property work is repeat work, so we keep a record of each property's colors, sheens and products, whether that's a Sherwin-Williams or PPG standard, and match them on every turn and touch-up.
Metal railings and doors get Rust-Oleum or similar direct-to-metal coatings, water and smoke stains from past tenants are sealed with Kilz before repainting, and common areas use scrubbable finishes.

What moves the price of property painting
- Unit size and condition
Heavily patched or stained units take longer to turn.
- Scope per turn
Walls only, or walls, trim, doors and ceilings.
- Building height and access
Taller buildings need lifts or staging.
- Occupied areas
Phasing around residents adds scheduling and protection.
- Metal work
Rusted rails and stairs need scraping and metal primer.
- Volume
Multiple units or buildings are planned as one schedule.
What we handle
Multifamily work we take on
Unit turnover painting
Between tenants, a unit needs holes patched, scuffs covered, stains sealed and walls, trim and doors brought back to the property standard. We work to the move-out and move-in dates you give us, patch and prime first, and repaint in the property's colors so touch-ups match later. Smoke, water and marker stains get a stain-blocking primer so they don't bleed through. Ceilings, closets and bathroom walls are included or skipped depending on your turn checklist.
Common area painting
Lobbies, corridors, stairwells and amenity rooms take constant traffic and need finishes that can be cleaned without wearing through. We paint in phases, one floor or wing at a time, with signs and clear walking routes so residents aren't blocked. Odor is kept low with waterborne products, and work in busy spaces is scheduled for quieter hours. Doors, frames and handrails in these areas are finished in harder enamels than the walls around them. Mailroom and elevator lobby walls get the same scrubbable finish.
HOA exterior repaint
Community exterior repaints are planned with the board: approved colors, a building order, resident notices and rules for parking, pets and landscaping. We wash, repair wood and caulk, and paint building by building so each one is finished before moving on. Sample areas are painted for the board to approve before full production starts. At the end, we provide the product and color records so future touch-ups match without guessing. Gutters, shutters and doors are included when the board wants them done in the same cycle.
Stairwell, breezeway and railing painting
Exterior stairs, breezeways and metal railings on garden-style apartments rust, peel and get slippery when finishes wear. We scrape and wire-brush rust, prime bare metal with a rust-inhibiting primer, and coat railings and stringers in a direct-to-metal enamel. Concrete stair treads and landings can be coated with a slip-resistant floor paint. Work is phased so every building keeps a usable way in and out, with wet areas clearly marked. Loose or failing railing posts are reported to management before we coat them.
Around Atlanta
Multifamily work close to our West End office
Rental demand stays steady beside the Atlanta University Center and the BeltLine Westside Trail, so West End landlords turn units on a regular calendar. The same streets mix newer multifamily buildings and live-work lofts with older single-family rentals, including 1920s Craftsman bungalows, which means one week's turns are clean drywall boxes and the next need plaster patching and careful trim prep before the paint goes on.

Timing
Fitting turnovers and repaints into your calendar
Unit turns live or die on the gap between move-out and move-in, so we schedule to your dates rather than ours, and patching, priming and paint are sequenced to leave time for cleaners.
Larger jobs such as common areas or community exteriors get a written phase plan, so residents and staff know which areas close and when they reopen.
