Paragon
Strata repainting in this area isn’t just about looks; it prevents moisture from damaging your siding. When paint peels, the exposed substrate absorbs rain, leading to rot and structural issues. Left unchecked, that decay spreads, turning a simple job into a major repair.
A fresh exterior paint job enhances the entire building’s appearance. It boosts curb appeal and can increase property values. Modern coatings resist fading and mildew, maintaining that new look longer despite the coastal weather.

Long-Lasting Strata Protection
Peeling paint is more than just a cosmetic issue. When the topcoat fails, moisture can get into the siding, trim, and window edges, leading to serious damage. Strata repainting in Vancouver begins with careful surface checks instead of just applying a quick fresh coat.
Our skilled teams wash away chalk and mildew, scrape off loose paint, fix damaged trim, and recaulk joints before applying primer. They back-roll each finish coat to secure the paint into the textured siding. This creates a clean, uniform exterior that can handle wet winters.
In Terra Nova, buildings are on low, open ground where wind-driven rain hits the walls from many angles. This makes a quick paint job fail first at the south- and west-facing joints.
Most strata buildings here have a mix of siding, trim, and some stucco bands, so preparation must consider different ways moisture moves. Coastal air leaves a film on the walls that needs to be washed off before priming. This local planning helps avoid repaint failures in weak spots.
Surface Prep in Terra Nova
In Terra Nova, surface preparation starts with a thorough wash to remove the salty film that builds up on exterior walls. Loose and peeling paint is scraped back to a solid edge and then sanded to smooth the transition. Any rotted trim or siding is cut out and replaced with primed wood or fiber-cement. All joints are recaulked with a high-quality polyurethane sealant that can handle the constant expansion and contraction from moisture cycles.
A bonding acrylic primer is applied to bare wood and stucco to lock down chalk and help the paint stick. Two full coats of 100% acrylic latex paint follow, with each coat back-rolled to push the paint into the textures of the siding and stucco. On south- and west-facing walls, extra care is taken with horizontal trim tops and window sills to prevent standing water from damaging the paint.
The paint system on a Terra Nova strata is the first line of defense for the building. Wind-driven rain can get through even tiny cracks, so every joint must be sealed to stop water from reaching the sheathing. A continuous, flexible sealant bead at siding joints and trim intersections creates a barrier that prevents moisture from getting behind the cladding.
The vapor permeability of the coating is also important. Acrylic latex paints allow water vapor to escape, so any moisture that gets into the wall can dry out without causing the paint to blister. This drying ability is crucial in Terra Nova’s damp, marine climate, where trapped moisture could lead to peeling and rot in just a few seasons.
Richmond Repainting Regulations
Exterior repainting by itself is usually not a reason to get a building permit under Bylaw No. 8751 – Richmond Building Regulation Bylaw. However, any exterior changes that affect structural, fire-safety, or building-envelope parts will need a building permit. Talk to your contractor to see if your planned repairs need a permit before starting work.
Exterior painting and related prep work must follow the Richmond Noise Regulation Bylaw No. 8856. Loud equipment and noisy prep work may be limited to certain hours in residential areas. Plan this work within the city’s allowed noise hours.
If the home is in the Terra Nova Heritage Area, exterior changes might be checked for heritage compatibility. Repainting and other visible exterior work could have extra heritage-sensitive rules before you proceed.
