The Toronto Painters of Ecopainting were raring to go. This was a good winter. It was a also a very long winter. Despite the economic troubles most construction companies faced, we did ok. We painted homes, painted factories and stores. We were still painting the interior of a large clinic. The weather was agreeable, the schedule set. Our Exterior painters were ready to start.
The first Toronto Exterior Painting customer was Re/max Unique. This real Estate company has two locations in the downtown Toronto area. Ecopainting was contracted to paint the Yonge Street location. The balcony metal railing on the second floor was rusting and it needed painting. The front entrance metal trim and railing was dirty and unsightly. The amount of Yonge Street vehicle traffic doesn’t help.
We needed a “one product solution” to use as a metal primer, rust inhibitor and super adherent trim paint. The Direct To Metal (DTM) product from Benjamin Moore was a great product that could do all of the above and give us outstanding service and durability..
Most of the second story railing was located directly over the entrance of three local stores. It was very windy and plastic drop cloths were not an option. A painter had to actually hold a drop cloth over each black cloth awning. The paint was fairly easy to work with and dried very fast. The patrons of these stores were not inconvenienced at all. One of the stores was a Bistro and lunch time traffic could not be disturbed. During lunch time the painters had to work at the front of the build.

At the end, the Yonge Street entrance looked clean and bright and the metal railing did not look rusted anymore. Our customer was ecstatic, thanked us for a “quick and professional job” and promised to call us for more work in the future.
The Exterior Painting season in Toronto was now well underway! There are now more buildings stores and houses scheduled to be painted in the Greater Toronto Area.
