Office, retail and tenant improvement painting in Martin County
A tenant improvement lives on a lease date. In a Stuart storefront, a Jensen Beach shop or a suite in a US-1 plaza, paint is one of the last trades in and often the one squeezed hardest, so it is planned early.
Downtown Stuart adds its own layer. The Urban Code limits wall colors to muted pastels and earth tones, bars black or fluorescent as the main color, and says exterior colors are approved by the city development director. Trim may be any color. A storefront color change there goes through that approval before any can is opened.
Inside, the work follows the other trades: walls after drywall finishing, doors and frames after hardware is set, touch-up after fixtures arrive. Romco runs the painting so it fits the sequence, and the scope names each surface and finish so the landlord and the tenant read the same list.
For a landlord turning a vacant suite, the job is often faster and plainer: patch, prime and a neutral finish, ready to show. Tell us which it is, send the plan or photos, and the quote follows.
Sequence
- Walk the suite with the tenant or landlord and the build-out schedule.
- Confirm colors, finishes and any city or landlord approval.
- Prep walls, frames and storefront surfaces.
- Coat in step with the other trades.
- Touch up after fixtures and signs go in.
- Do a final walk of the suite and clear punch items ahead of opening.
Common failures
Where this work goes wrong in Martin County, and the control for each
The last trade before opening
Paint gets squeezed when earlier trades run late. The painting sequence is set with the general schedule, and touch-up time after fixtures is written in.
Brand colors that clash with code
A national brand's storefront color may not meet a local rule. In Stuart and the county's redevelopment areas, the color is checked against the code before it is submitted.
Open neighbors
In a plaza, the shop next door is trading. Overspray, odor and noise are kept to the suite, and outside work happens when it disturbs the fewest people.
Outside this scope
Signs need their own permits and approvals and are not part of a painting scope. Murals in Stuart's Urban Code District need a minor conditional use approval. Drywall, flooring and millwork belong to other trades.
Questions
About office, retail and tenant improvement painting
Who approves a storefront color in downtown Stuart?
The city's Urban Code says exterior colors are approved by the city development director, within muted pastel or earth-toned shades. Trim may be any color. Confirm the current process with the city before you order paint.
Can you work around our opening date?
We plan around it. The painting sequence is set with the rest of the build-out, but no contractor can promise a date that depends on other trades and inspections.
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 size of building will you quote?
Any size. A single storefront in downtown Stuart, a stairwell in an office, a row of flex bays in Palm City or a full four-story condo on Hutchinson Island are all quoted the same way: from the surfaces, the access and the people around the work.
Is Romco licensed?
Yes. Romco Builders is a licensed Florida general contractor, headquartered in Fort Lauderdale. Ask for the license details and they come with your quote.
