OUR PROCESS

Our 5-Step Commercial Process

Commercial work is about planning as much as painting. Here's how we keep your project on schedule and your business open.

1

WALKTHROUGH & SCOPE

WHY IT MATTERS

A good commercial bid starts with understanding how your space operates — not just its square footage.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
On-site walkthrough at your convenience
Surface, access, and traffic assessment
Itemized written proposal within 48 hours
walkthrough & scope
2

SCHEDULING & PHASING

WHY IT MATTERS

Downtime costs you money. We phase work so your business, tenants, and customers are never in the way of wet paint.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Work phased area by area
Evening / weekend shifts where needed
Tenant and staff notices handled for you
scheduling & phasing
3

PROTECTION & PREP

WHY IT MATTERS

Fixtures, signage, equipment, and inventory all get protected — and commercial surfaces get commercial-grade prep.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Equipment and inventory fully masked
Pressure washing, scraping, and priming
Safety signage and clean work zones
protection & prep
4

COMMERCIAL-GRADE APPLICATION

WHY IT MATTERS

High-traffic spaces need coatings that last. We apply durable commercial systems at proper spread rates, never rushed.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Products matched to traffic and use
Spray, back-roll, or brush as the surface demands
Consistent color records for future touch-ups
commercial-grade application
5

WALKTHROUGH & SIGN-OFF

WHY IT MATTERS

The job isn't done until your space is clean, reopened, and you've signed off on every surface.

WHAT YOU CAN EXPECT
Daily cleanup, spotless final handover
Punch-list walkthrough with your manager
Labeled touch-up paint left on site

OUR TOP PICKS

The Sherwin-Williams Products We Recommend

Overnight turnarounds
Waterbased Catalyzed Epoxy

Epoxy durability from a waterbased finish — for corridors, restrooms, and patient- or customer-facing walls.

Withstands harsh cleaners

Our most-used exterior paint

Coatings Specified for Commercial Wear

Commercial spaces take abuse a home never sees — carts, deliveries, weather, and thousands of hands. We spec commercial-grade systems matched to each surface and its traffic level.

Scrub-Resistant Interior Systems

Commercial acrylics that stand up to daily cleaning in lobbies, corridors, and patient- or customer-facing spaces.

Exterior Masonry & Stucco Coatings

Elastomeric and acrylic systems that bridge hairline cracks and lock out Pacific Northwest moisture.

Epoxy & Specialty Floors

Chemical- and abrasion-resistant floor systems with anti-slip options for warehouses, kitchens, and shops.

Will Painting Disrupt My Business?

No — that's the whole point of how we plan. We phase work area by area, schedule evenings and weekends where needed, and use fast-cure, low-odor products so spaces reopen quickly. Your customers may never know we were there.

For multi-tenant properties we handle the communication too: notices, parking coordination, and a posted schedule, so your tenants always know what's happening and when.

Scheduling Around Your Business

Downtime costs you money — so our commercial crews build the schedule around your operations, not the other way around.

NIGHTS & WEEKENDS
Off-Hours Standard

Retail floors and offices painted after close, cured and odor-free before your first customer or employee arrives.

PHASED WORK
Zone by Zone

Large facilities are painted in phases so operations continue — one wing, suite, or elevation at a time.

EXTERIOR SEASON
April – October

Building exteriors follow the dry season. Book winter walkthroughs to lock in spring start dates before the calendar fills.

AN HONEST COMPARISON

Handyman Crew vs. a Commercial Pro

THE CHEAP ROUTE
A Handyman Crew
No insurance documentation for your landlord
Schedules drift, doors stay closed longer
Inconsistent finish across suites
Nobody accountable when it fails
THE PROFESSIONAL ROUTE
Hiring Hilltop
Licensed, bonded & insured — documentation provided
Off-hours and phased schedules, honored
Uniform, spec-grade finish throughout
One accountable project manager
The honest take: For any occupied or leased space, documentation and schedule reliability matter as much as the paint itself.Get a Free Estimate →

What Clients Say About Our Commercial Work

★★★★★Verified review

"I can't say enough good things about Hilltop Painting! We discussed our project with a number of companies and received a crazy range of quotes, from $20k to $130k. We found out later that the least expensive option didn't include trim repair or the proper equipment to tackle our slope."

"Hilltop Painting to the rescue! I am thrilled with everything about this company. I am a real estate agent and have a listing in Bellingham, out of my normal service area."

"Hilltop and Andres team was top notch. They were professional, efficient and walked us through the process day by day. We had eight different colors in the interior of our home and they transformed it within a week and had a quick quote to finish turn around."
