North Van’s Commercial Painting Specialists
From the Lonsdale town centre down to the Shipyards, North Vancouver’s salt air, orographic rainfall, and constant marine breeze ask more from paint — on stucco facades, cedar fascia, steel canopy systems, tilt-up walls, and heritage woodwork near Moodyville. We specify systems built for the North Shore: corrosion-inhibitive primers on metal, mineral-compatible masonry primers on brick, and elastomerics that bridge hairlines without obscuring detail.
At Commercial Painters Vancouver, we use proven coatings from Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and PPG Protective & Marine, installed to PCA Industry Standards and relevant ASTM practices.

Story #1: Shipyards & Lonsdale Quay — Salt Air, Heavy Foot Traffic
In the Shipyards District, we refreshed canopy steel, boardwalk rails, and storefronts with zinc-rich primers and UV-stable urethanes for gloss retention. We coordinated around Seabus peaks, kept promenades open, and ran low-odor systems so cafes stayed full while the metalwork cured to a flawless finish.
Story #2: Moodyville/Esplanade — Heritage Lines, Modern Performance
Along East Esplanade and Moodyville, brick and mill-era woodwork demand breathable protection. We soft-washed, repointed selective joints, verified pH, and installed mineral-compatible primers plus elastomeric topcoats that bridge hairlines without blurring the historic profiles — all staged at night to keep cycling and freight routes moving.
Story #3: Harbourside Industrial — Corrosion Control That Lasts
Close to Harbourside logistics and marine breeze, we blasted canopy steel to profile, primed with epoxy mastic, and finished with aliphatic urethane. Bollards, dock equipment, and stair towers received high-build DTM systems. We hot-washed salt film before every coat and used moisture-tolerant epoxies during fog-heavy mornings.
Story #4: Lynn Valley & Lynn Creek — Shade, Moisture, Cedar
Lynn Valley soffits, fascia, and beams sit under shaded tree cover. We stripped failing alkyds, back-primed cut ends, and finished with flexible exterior urethane enamels. For stucco walls in the canyon’s cool zones, we applied elastomeric systems over crack repairs to resist wind-driven rain.
Story #5: Capilano/Marine — Showroom Gloss, Quiet Turnovers
Along Capilano & Marine, dealerships and showrooms needed dust-free, high-reflectance finishes. We isolated bays, used quick-cure enamels on doors/frames, re-striped floors overnight, and handed back immaculate spaces before morning deliveries.
Our Process (Built for the North Shore)
- Scope & Planning: Site walk, access plan (Seabus peaks, Shipyards events), strata/tenant comms, colour & sheen approvals.
- Prep: Degrease/soft-wash, rust remediation, patch/skim, joint sealants, primers per PCA/ASTM and manufacturer PDS/SDS.
- Application: Brush/roll control; airless/HVLP for uniformity; plural-component epoxies/urethanes on steel & floors.
- Low-Impact Scheduling: Nights/weekends, micro-phases, “clean by open” checkpoints. Your doors stay open.
- QA & Warranty: Joint walkthrough, punch completion, O&M packet, and a 10-year written warranty on fading, chipping, and peeling.
Interior Commercial Painting
Reception features, boardrooms, open-ceiling offices, corridors, and stair cores — specified for durability and cleanability. Medical/food uses receive low/zero-VOC systems, proper containment, and off-hour turnovers.
- Exposed deck spraying for a unified plenum look
- Enamels for doors/frames, millwork, and fixture bands
- FRP, galvanized, and anodized touch-ins with proper primers
Exterior Commercial Painting
Elastomerics for hairline-prone stucco; mineral-compatible primers for brick and parged surfaces; DTM/urethane tops on steel and canopies; marine-aware prep protocols for waterfront wind and salt film.
Floors & Specialty Coatings
- Epoxy/Urethane Floors: Forklift-rated, non-slip where needed, colour-coded traffic lanes and safety zones.
- Sealants & Caulking: Re-seal movement joints and penetrations to keep weather out.
- Corrosion Systems: Zinc-rich primers + aliphatic urethanes on exterior steel elements.

FAQs
How do you handle the waterfront’s salt and wind?
We hot-wash salt film, use corrosion-inhibitive primers, and specify urethanes with strong UV and gloss retention. Scheduling avoids peak wind windows along the quay.
Do you follow recognized standards?
Yes — PCA Industry Standards and relevant ASTM practices. You’ll receive scopes, PDS/SDS, and QA checklists.
What does your 10-year warranty cover?
On qualifying systems, fading, chipping, and peeling — plus workmanship. If it’s not right, we make it right.
Can you work around Shipyards events and Seabus peaks?
Absolutely. Night/weekend crews, phased zones, and “clean by open” turnover keep promenades and corridors moving.
