We offer concrete restoration services for parking garages and other structures such as walk-ways or floors. We also repair damage due to rebar corrosion or freeze-thaw deterioration.

Preparation also gives the workman the opportunity to assess the condition of the surfaces to see if there are any other problems that may need to be addressed.
\n\n\n\nBecause exterior painting needs to be accomplished during dry weather — maybe 4 or 5 months in Vancouver — much of the logistical and preparatory planning for exterior painting projects is carried out in the off season. Exterior painting isn’t a spur of the moment type of project!
\n\n\n\nPreparation starts with the removal of loose paint, dirt, grease, mildew and mold from the paintable surfaces utilizing the most appropriate method whether that be pressure washing, power washing, steam cleaning, hand washing, or other methods. Tenting, masking and drop cloths ensures the paint goes only where it is supposed to and not onto neighbouring buildings or cars. In some instances, traffic may need to be re-routed.
\n\n\n\nVanguard Painting is equipped and experienced to handle all exterior painting services throughout Metro Vancouver. Our professional painters can operate and set up boom lifts, pressure washers, scaffolding, swing stages, bosun’s chairs, and more. Our crews are trained in fall protection, aerial lift operation, rope access, ladder safety, and WHMIS, and all of our work sites have at least one employee trained in first aid per WCB regulations. Our exterior painting jobs are expertly executed, and we always use the most effective methods and equipment.
\n\n\n\nOur painters utilize high-quality industrial-grade materials and paints, using the latest-generation coatings, such as oil-based and latex paints, epoxies and multi-part epoxies, direct-to-rust coatings, elastomeric, safety paints, traffic paints, high-adhesion coatings, specialty coatings, industrial enamels, urethanes and polyurethanes, drywall paints, non-slip coatings, low-emission coatings, and more.
\n\n\n\nWhether your building is an aluminum-clad high-rise tower, a shop with wood siding, a concrete block warehouse or a metal holding tank, Vanguard Painting is experienced and well-equipped to handle all commercial, industrial and multi-residential exterior painting in Vancouver and the Lower Mainland.
