Faded, flaking paint isn’t just an eyesore, it triggers formal complaints. One email to the strata manager can lead to a forced repaint timeline, draining reserve funds. For a high-rise in this area, delays make special levy meetings harder to avoid.
Addressing paint issues often reveals hidden problems. The crew might discover dried-out sealant, allowing moisture to penetrate behind the cladding. Catching these weak points during the job prevents bigger headaches, as resealing helps combat the rain affecting glass towers and concrete low-rises.

Coatings that withstand weather
We begin with pressure washing and surface preparation so new coatings bond well. Then we apply high-build acrylic primers and topcoats made to flex through Vancouver’s wet-dry-freeze cycles without cracking or peeling. This means your strata board won’t get complaint calls about flaking paint six months later.
It’s a careful process: we remove failing layers down to solid substrate, treat any mildew or efflorescence, seal all gaps, and spray on two full finish coats for even thickness. The result is a strong, flexible film that sheds rain, resists salt-laden air, and keeps color stable for years. For a full breakdown of how this works for multi-family buildings, see our guide on strata repainting in Vancouver.
Strata buildings in Downtown Vancouver sit in a damp marine climate that harms exterior paint all year. Constant drizzle, fog from the inlet, and salt from English Bay cause standard coatings to break down faster than expected. Repainting here isn’t just upkeep—it’s a defense against a harsh environment.
Most buildings in the area are concrete or stucco high-rises from the 1990s onward, and many have south- or west-facing sides that increase UV damage on already weathered facades. Choosing a coating system designed for constant dampness and salt exposure makes the difference between a 10-year finish and early failure.

High-build elastomeric coatings
In Downtown Vancouver high-rises, we use high-build elastomeric acrylics. These coatings can stretch up to 300% to cover small cracks in old concrete and stucco. They help the building handle temperature changes without tearing.
We start by masking windows and balconies. Then we spray the paint and back-roll it to push it into the surface. On sides facing English Bay, we make the paint thicker to protect against salt damage.
For metal railings and flashings found on downtown towers, we apply epoxy primers directly to the metal. We then add a urethane topcoat. This two-coat system stops rust from bleeding through and ruining the appearance of strata facades within a year of repainting.
Concrete buildings in Downtown Vancouver deal with moisture from rain on their surfaces. We use a breathable coating system with high perm-rated acrylics. This allows moisture trapped in the walls to escape without causing blisters or peeling.
Before painting, we check all sealant joints around windows and expansion joints. If the sealant fails, rain can get behind the coating. This is especially important for west-facing walls that are fully exposed to storms, as it helps keep water out of the building.
Flashing details at the tops of walls and balcony edges need to be coated with flexible materials. This ensures there is a continuous drainage path. If a rigid coating cracks at these points, it can let moisture into the walls, which can lead to rot and damage in the marine air.
Bylaws for strata repainting
For exterior repainting work on strata buildings in Downtown Vancouver, the City of Vancouver’s Noise Control By-law No. 6555 limits when contractors can use powered equipment. Noisy work is allowed on weekdays from 7:30 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. and on Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. However, it is not allowed on Sundays or holidays unless a noise by-law exception permit is obtained.
For designated heritage property or property within a heritage conservation area, the Heritage Procedure By-law No. 11350 says that repainting the same colours usually does not need a heritage alteration permit. However, changing the colour scheme may require a permit. The Heritage Property Standards of Maintenance By-law No. 11351 requires owners or occupiers of protected heritage property to maintain exterior finishes. This makes regular repainting part of that maintenance, although any colour changes still need to be checked under heritage rules.
