Spring weather is warming things up, helping things bloom, and drawing  more people out to shop, eat, and get what they need. It’s a beautiful thing! If you own or manage a brick-and-mortar business, curb appeal is a big deal. 

Your building exterior either brings customers in, or sends them running to your competitors. The impact of curb appeal varies by industry, but one North Carolina study found that as many as 70% of respondents chose to visit a business based on its curb appeal. Is your business making a perfect first impression, or is it time for some spring cleaning?

We recommend three commercial painting and facilities services to quickly enhance curb appeal and raise your profile.

 

Pressure Washing

When it comes to getting your building clean, a few days of heavy rain isn’t going to cut it. Pressure washing is ideal for an exterior deep-clean. It’s time-efficient, effective, and gets immediate, visible results. Other benefits of pressure washing include:

• Mold removal (which improves the building’s structural longevity) 
• Rust removal 
• Clearing stuck-on grime, pollen, and pollutants
• Graffiti removal 

For a business on a budget, DIY pressure washing is tempting. But the easiest way to save time, and to ensure the ideal solution and pressure are being used for your building exterior, is to hire a professional pressure washer to streamline the process. 

 

Exterior Paint Refresh

In many cases, you don’t need a complete repaint to improve your commercial building exterior and boost your curb appeal. An exterior paint refresh is a great option to make your commercial exterior “pop” on those bright spring and summer days. A refresh (rather than a full repaint) is ideal if: 

• You notice minor scuffs, paint fading, or mildew spots on your commercial or retail building.
• Paint was applied recently. 
• Paint is not peeling, bubbling, or flaking off.
• You like the color and appearance of your paint job, it’s just looking a little dull. 

If you’re not sure, your commercial painting team can check your building exterior and recommend the best combination of cleaning, surface preparation, and painting services for your business. 

Digital Paint Renderings

Spring is all about renewal. If you are looking for a more dramatic change, doing a rebrand, or are curious about a commercial exterior painting trend [Hmm, I wonder what the restaurant would look like with painted brick?]… It’s nice to know what to expect. You don’t have to budget for architectural renderings to find out. Our experts can create digital renderings to show what colors and finishes look like before you commit. No need to stress about color matching, or wonder if you’ve made the right call. You can move forward with confidence, knowing your business will turn heads for all the right reasons.
