Sewall's Point, Martin County

Commercial painting in Sewall's Point

Sewall's Point is mostly homes, but its code keeps a B-1 business district for the community's retail and service needs: stores, personal service shops, professional and business offices, and churches. Buildings there are held to 30 feet, so commercial painting in the town means small, low buildings.

Low buildings make for ladder and small-lift work, so the planning is about the businesses and the street. Contractors in the town may work 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Saturday, and not on named holidays, and trucks over the weight limit must be out of sight after 5 PM.

The point sits between the St. Lucie River and the Indian River Lagoon, so salt and humidity reach every wall. The Town runs its own Building Department; Romco asks it what a repaint of a B-1 building requires before the work is scheduled.

The order of work

Six steps, the same on every job

Romco Builders is a licensed Florida general contractor, headquartered in Fort Lauderdale. A single suite and a full condo community go through the same six steps.

  1. Send the building

    Phone us, or send the request form along with photos or plans. Say what gets painted, who stays inside and what decisions are already made.

  2. Walk it with us

    We inspect the walls, trim and metal, decide the access for each elevation, and note what nearby needs protection.

  3. Scope and quote in writing

    The quote lists the washing, repairs, coating system, access, phases and anything still waiting on an approval.

  4. Color and approvals

    The color is checked against the county or city rule, and any board vote, permit or airport clearance is settled first.

  5. Wash, repair, coat

    Washing, repairs, primer and finish follow the agreed order, with drains covered and people below kept clear.

  6. Walk-through and closeout

    We walk the work with you, finish the punch list and hand over a record of the coatings used.

Questions

Commercial painting in Sewall's Point

What hours can contractors work in Sewall's Point?

The Town's code enforcement page lists 8 AM to 5 PM, Monday to Saturday, with no work on named holidays. Heavy trucks must be garaged or out of sight after 5 PM.

How is the cost of a commercial paint job worked out?

From the building itself. We look at the surfaces and how worn they are, the stucco, sealant and rust repairs, the coating system, how each side is reached, who stays inside, and which color rules or board votes come first. Photos and drawings can start it; most quotes are confirmed with a walk. There is no rate card, because no two buildings wear the same way in this climate.

What happens if the building has lead paint?

Coatings put on before 1978 can hold lead. EPA's renovation rule covers work that disturbs it in pre-1978 housing and in child-occupied rooms such as a day care, and that work goes to a certified firm using lead-safe practices. We check the building's age and use first, and any abatement is coordinated with a licensed firm.

How long will the painting take?

We set the schedule after the walk, not before. It depends on the surfaces, the repairs found once the walls are washed, the summer rain, the access, any color approval and the hours the building or town allows. Instead of a date nobody controls, you get the sequence and the dependency behind each step.
