 Why Regular Repainting Protects Senior Living Facilities

At Shaker Painting, we believe that regular repainting is essential to the safety, aesthetics, and overall well-being of senior living facilities. When it comes to commercial painting services for assisted living facilities, repainting is not just about enhancing the appearance of the space; it is about providing a safe, healthy environment for both residents and staff. Painting for assisted living residents goes beyond aesthetics and contributes to the comfort, mood, and health of the elderly. With commercial painting in Denver, we understand how to address these specific needs while meeting regulatory standards and offering long-lasting solutions.

The Importance of Regular Repainting for Senior Living Facilities

Senior living facilities are places of care, support, and comfort. As such, they must maintain an environment that is not only functional but also welcoming. Here’s why regular repainting is crucial:

  1. Improves Safety and Hygiene
  2. Regular painting ensures that any potential hazards, such as cracks, chipped paint, or exposed surfaces, are addressed promptly. This is especially important in senior living environments, where safety is a priority. Fresh coats of paint can help seal and protect walls from damage, dust, and allergens, contributing to a cleaner and healthier environment for assisted living residents. For example, moisture-resistant paint can prevent mold and mildew from developing, ensuring the safety of those with compromised immune systems.
  3. Maintains Compliance and Enhances Appeal
  4. In many cases, senior living facilities are subject to local health and safety regulations, which may include specific guidelines for maintaining building surfaces. Repainting ensures these regulations are met and helps facilities maintain a positive reputation within the community. Furthermore, fresh, professional painting enhances the overall aesthetic appeal of the facility, making it more inviting for residents, their families, and visitors. Regular repainting also shows that the facility is well-maintained, boosting the confidence of potential residents.

Why You Should Invest in Professional Commercial Painting Services

As a trusted provider of commercial painting services for assisted living facilities, Shaker Painting understands the unique needs of these environments. We offer specialized painting solutions tailored to the demands of senior living communities, ensuring that both aesthetic and functional needs are met. Here are some key benefits of hiring professionals:

  • Expert Color Selection
  • Colors can have a significant impact on mood and well-being. Soft, calming colors are often chosen for common areas, while more vibrant hues can be used in spaces designed for activity and social interaction. Professional painters know how to choose the right colors to create a soothing and pleasant atmosphere for residents.
  • Durable, High-Quality Materials
  • We use high-quality paints designed for durability, especially in high-traffic areas of the facility. The paint we apply is resistant to stains, wear, and tear, ensuring that the building remains pristine for longer periods. This reduces the need for frequent touch-ups and repainting.
  • Efficient Service with Minimal Disruption
  • At Shaker Painting, we recognize that senior living facilities are constantly in use, with residents requiring care and attention at all hours. That’s why we plan our painting services around the needs of the facility. We work efficiently and during off-peak hours to ensure minimal disruption to daily activities.

How Regular Repainting Impacts the Health and Well-Being of Residents

The physical and mental well-being of residents is always a top priority in senior living facilities. Regular repainting has a significant role in this by:

  • Reducing Environmental Stressors
  • Studies have shown that the environment has a direct effect on a person’s mood. By creating a visually appealing space, fresh paint can help reduce anxiety and create a more comfortable atmosphere for residents. This is particularly true when painting is done in spaces where residents spend most of their time, such as dining areas, lounges, and private rooms.
  • Promoting Health
  • Using the right type of paint can help promote health by reducing exposure to harmful substances. Non-toxic, low-VOC paints ensure that the air quality inside is safe for residents, especially those with respiratory conditions or sensitive immune systems.

Larry Healy
Community Manager
From the RFP to the initial walk through – from the proposal acceptance to the planning session – from the first day of work through the final day – every person at Shaker was professional, thoughtful, friendly and helpful. The project was completed well within the anticipated time frame and at a very reasonable cost. During the quality control walkthrough at the end of the project no deficiencies were noted. Every member of the community had only praise for the excellent job Shaker did. It was the best painting project I have ever been involved in as a Community Association Manager.

Everything. From Jason's first bid to the final coat of paint with [the project manager’s] crew, we were very pleased with the communication, the attention to detail and the care with which they protected the house, minimized the sanding dust and cleaned up after the fact carefully. The worry that we would have a major cleaning effort after the fact. We were able to clean and put back all the furniture, pictures and furnishings in less than a day.

Facilities Manager
It is my great pleasure to provide this letter of recommendation for Shaker Painting Inc. Shaker Painting recently completed a full exterior trim replacement and paint of our five-story building, Broadway Junction, at 1165 Broadway, Denver CO. The Shaker team conducted themselves with professionalism and performed in a manner that was the least disruptive to all parties affected by the work. Closing-off parking spaces, managing staging area(s) for materials and the overall safety for pedestrians were some of the challenges presented to Shaker. Not a single complaint was issued for the duration of the work. Communication was excellent as Shaker personnel were required to access the roof and maintain the security setup at the building. As we have worked with Shaker on previous projects, we will continue to work with Brent Rumpf, Ed Gonzales, Jason Moore, and the rest of the Shaker team on future projects and I would recommend the same to any property and/or property management organization.
