A Quick Commercial Painting Guide For
Ozaukee County Business Owners
Know The Costs Before Giving Your
Business A Dashing New Look!
Fresh paint can mean the difference between attracting or repelling new customers. For your Ozaukee Countyโs commercial painting project, trust Colorwheel professionals who understand color’s impact on your current and potential customers.
But what exactly should โ and does โ a professional commercial paint job cost?
It may seem simple at first, but several factors affect the bottom line, including:
- Total Space Painted
- Brand & Paint Quality
- Labor Costs
- Premium Night or Weekend Shift Costs
- Additional Costs โ Fixing Holes, Vinyl Removal, Trim Touch-Ups, etc.
Letโs face it โ what would you think if you walked into a commercial business that had old, dirty, unappealing paint? In fact, you already know. It happens to all of us, and it almost seems to weigh us down and make us feelโฆ colder and unappreciated.
Donโt let your commercial buildingโs dated paint cast your business in a bad light. Know the numbers so you can paint your commercial business with confidence.
Factor 1: The Total Space To Be Painted
Whether you have a sprawling commercial building or a cozy neighborhood church, the final cost of painting will depend heavily on the total space to be painted. Most painting companies charge by square foot.
To calculate the total cost of your project, calculate the length and width of each total wall (or ceiling, if you plan on adding a fresh coat to the ceiling as well), then subtract the space of any door and window openings. Then, multiply the total square footage by the cost per square foot, and you have a rough estimate of your commercial painting project’s cost. That cost multiplier may vary from seventy cents to $1.30, for painting alone.

Factor 2: Brand & Paint Quality
The price of paint varies greatly depending on what kind of paint you want and how much youโre willing to spend upfront. And trust us, this choice matters. Big time.
Glossy paints cost slightly more than simple matte, satin, or semi-gloss but last much longer.
Glossy finishes are the most stain-resistant, easy to wash, and durable. But, they don’t always look so great as they show every imperfection in the surface. They also may reflect too much light.
There are even specific, scuff-resistant coatings we use.
Higher-quality paints may cost more upfront, but youโll get your moneyโs worth by not needing to repaint and touch up the paint for much longer than if you used lesser-quality paints. At Colorwheel Painting, we source the best paint available, with prestigious brands such as:
- Fine Paints of Europe
- Sherwin-Williams
- Hallman Lindsay
- Benjamin Moore
- Farrow & Ball
Not only does Colorwheel Painting offer swift, professional service, but our color consultants are trained in the art of choosing which colors will best fit your space and your business.
Factor 3: Labor Costs For Commercial Painting
Labor costs for professional commercial painting can vary significantly between companies.
Donโt skimp when hiring a Milwaukee painting company for your building. While the cheaper outfits may seem like a good deal, youโre risking security in your space, professionalism with your staff or customers, and, of course, the quality of the paint job.
Paint trails, paint bleed along the trim, and other issues can arise thatโll have you second-guessing that cheap hourly cost.
At Colorwheel, our specialized in-house painters are worth every penny and are known for their high-caliber, detailed workmanship. They work around your staff and/or customers with courtesy and care. And our warranty also backs our results, so if you arenโt satisfied, weโll make it right at no additional cost. Yes, you can expect us to show up and be prompt and precise to correct things.
Factor 4: Additional Costs That Affect Commercial Painting
Trim painting is more detail-oriented and requires more skill and time. Also, consider if there is caulking to do, or fixing of previous imperfections. This will add to the overall cost of your commercial painting project.
At Colorwheel, we deliver swift, superior service that puts the competition to shame. Our team of well-trained painters will not only meet deadlines and deliver fantastic results, but their demeanor will take the stress out of your commercial painting project.
- Remember that removing vinyl or wallpaper affects the overall cost of your paint project.
- Making the surface ready for painting requires prep work, the extent of which depends on the state of your walls.
Colorwheel Painting will prep your walls swiftly and efficiently so we can fully revamp your commercial buildingโs appearance.
