A tenant refresh can involve landlord requirements, brand approvals, new partitions, and a tight move-in sequence. Bring Alfarero the existing conditions and the intended use so the painting conversation covers both the visible finish and the practical work behind it.
Build your scope
What are you planning?
- Retail build-outs and rebrands
- Office and professional-suite refreshes
- Restaurant front-of-house areas
- Move-in preparation and lease transitions
Separate what stays from what changes.
Record existing walls and coatings, new partitions, exposed repairs, and finishes supplied by other trades. Make clear whether ceilings, doors, frames, cabinets, or specialty surfaces are included. This prevents a broad phrase like “paint the suite” from hiding different expectations.
Put approvals in order.
Landlord criteria, franchise colors, a designer’s finish schedule, and the operator’s preferences may all apply. Choose one approved record for each surface, including the manufacturer, product, color code, and sheen. Resolve conflicts before material is ordered.
Work backward from access.
Distinguish your desired opening date from furniture installation, equipment deliveries, inspections, and cleaning. Paint needs the specified time before subsequent work or use. Ask how late changes and damage from follow-on trades will be addressed in the estimate.
An estimate with context
What shapes the price?
Price follows the actual work. These are the details to have ready for a site-specific estimate.
- Lease or landlord finish requirements
- Existing damage versus new construction
- Deliveries, opening dates, and access to the suite
Before you begin
Questions worth asking.
Share the approved color specification and physical reference if available. A digital brand HEX code is a starting point; review an actual painted sample before approving the final color.
Identify the room or wall limits and surrounding finishes. An isolated touch-up can look different from an aged finish, so discuss a complete wall or other natural stopping point where appropriate.
