At Brotherton Painting, we completed multifamily painting in Bellevue, WA, for Ondina Apartments, a new eight-story, 249-unit apartment complex in the Bel-Red Spring District. Our scope included interior and exterior painting across apartment interiors, residential corridors, amenity spaces, exterior Hardie panels, canopies, and metal elements, plus anti-graffiti coating.

The square footage describes the building’s total area, rather than the measured area of painted surfaces. Our guide to commercial painting cost factors explains why that distinction matters when comparing estimates.

Interior Painting Across Apartments and Shared Spaces

Our crew painted apartment walls and ceilings, along with doors, trim, baseboards, handrails, and accent walls. The scope also included residential corridors and amenity spaces, extending the work beyond the individual apartments.

The interior portion of our commercial painting services followed distinct color selections for apartments, corridors, and amenity rooms, as listed below.

Exterior Painting and Specialty Coatings

Our exterior painting services covered Hardie panels, canopies, steel, and other metal elements. The building’s exterior palette included Sherwin-Williams Caviar SW 6990 and James Hardie Light Mist. Our work also included anti-graffiti coating.

Pacific Northwest weather creates unique challenges for exterior painting projects. For a new construction project, the exterior painting schedule should account for weather conditions and the application requirements of the selected coatings.
