Painting behind the furnace because nobody coordinated? Touch-ups because other trades trashed your finished walls? Waiting for payment while the GC drives a new truck?

Yeah, we hate that too.

Our units are ready when you arrive. Other trades finished. Walls patched. Drop cloths down. Our laborers help move ladders and stage paint. You cut, roll, and collect on Friday.

THE WORK:

  • New construction painting
  • Same color schemes each building
  • Primer + 2 coats standard
  • Low-VOC paints (easier on you)
  • Units ready in sequence

THE MONEY:

  • Above market per sq ft or hourly
  • Paid weekly - every Friday
  • Speed bonus: 6 units in 4 days vs 5? Extra pay
  • Quality has to be there (we check)

DAILY REALITY:

  • Paint and supplies organized by unit
  • Real ventilation (new construction)
  • Laborers help with heavy ladder moves
  • No painting around other trades
  • Clean bathrooms, lunch area, coffee
  • Site super who gets scheduling

Same apartment layouts repeatedly. You'll develop a system and fly through units. Steady work within 90 mins of HRM.

WE NEED:

  • 5+ years painting experience
  • New construction preferred
  • Own brushes/rollers (we provide sprayers)
  • Clean lines and attention to detail
  • Show up ready to work

QUICK APPLICATION: Send experience plus:

  1. How many units/sqft can you paint per week?
  2. Biggest time-waster on paint jobs?
  3. Your location and travel range?
  4. When are you available?

(Helio: Better apartment construction. Trades who stick around because we treat them right.)
