Commercial Painting Contractor for Texas HOAs and Apartments
Exterior painting and coatings for HOAs, condos, apartments, and commercial buildings across Texas
Paint only lasts as long as the surface under it. Shepperd Construction is a commercial painting contractor for HOAs, apartment communities, and commercial buildings across Texas, and because we are a reconstruction company, the rot, cracks, and failed sealant are repaired before the first coat goes on.

Commercial exterior painting on a multifamily property is a maintenance project and a protection system. Done properly, it includes surface repairs, sealant replacement, and coatings chosen for each substrate, so the paint protects the building instead of hiding damage.
Paint Over Damage and It Comes Back
Most early paint failures on multifamily buildings are not paint problems. Peeling over rotted trim, cracking over moving stucco, and staining from failed sealant all trace back to the surface underneath. Painting over them makes the building look good for a season and hides the damage until it costs more.
Our painting projects start with repairs. Rot is replaced, cracks are repaired, and failed sealant is cut out and redone, then the right primer and finish go on each surface. Smaller painting needs are handled through our repair service, with one point of contact.
Repairs First
Rot, cracks, and sealant fixed before painting so the finish lasts.
Right Coating, Right Surface
Primers and finishes chosen for stucco, siding, trim, and metal.
Occupied-Site Scheduling
Buildings painted in sequence with notices so residents know what to expect.
Signs It Is Time to Repaint
These are the signs that a community is due for exterior painting, and often for repairs too:
- Peeling, flaking, or chalking paint across elevations
- Faded colors that no longer match between buildings
- Peeling on the same trim boards after each repaint
- Hairline cracks in stucco showing through the paint
- Rust on metal railings, stairs, and doors
- Failed caulking at windows, trim, and joints
- Board complaints about curb appeal or resale values
Paint that keeps failing on the same boards usually means rot or water behind them. Our wood rot repair page covers how that is fixed.
How a Commercial Painting Project Works
Every project starts with a walk of the property to note repairs, surfaces, and access. That list becomes part of the scope, so the board sees the repairs and the painting together, priced up front.
Work then runs building by building: pressure washing, repairs, sealant replacement, priming bare and repaired areas, and two finish coats suited to each surface. For HOA painting, color approvals and resident notices are built into the schedule, and metal railings and stairs are prepared and coated with products suited to metal.
