Description

Job Summary: The Apartment Painter is responsible for preparing surfaces and applying paint, stains, and other finishes to the interior and sometimes exterior of apartment units and common areas. This role requires a keen eye for detail, efficiency, and adherence to safety protocols to ensure high-quality results that meet property standards and prepare units for new residents. Key Responsibilities: Surface Preparation: Inspect surfaces (walls, ceilings, trim, doors, cabinets) to determine the necessary preparation. Clean surfaces thoroughly, removing dirt, grease, and debris. Scrape, sand, and wire brush to remove loose, peeling, or old paint. Fill cracks, holes, and imperfections with spackle, plaster, or putty. Apply caulk to seams, corners, and around fixtures. Tape off areas not to be painted (trim, windows, light fixtures, outlets). Lay down drop cloths and protective coverings to shield floors, furniture, and other surfaces from paint. Apply primers or sealers as needed to ensure proper adhesion and a smooth finish. Paint Application: Mix paints and other materials to achieve the desired color, texture, and consistency, often matching existing colors. Apply paint, varnish, stain, and other finishes using a variety of tools, including brushes, rollers, and sprayers. Ensure even coverage and a high-quality finish, paying close attention to detail in edging and cutting in. May apply specialty finishes, such as faux finishes or textured coatings, if required. Maintenance and Repair: Perform minor drywall repairs as needed (e.g., patching holes). Conduct touch-ups and repainting to address wear and tear or damage. Safety and Cleanliness: Adhere to all health and safety regulations and protocols, including proper handling and disposal of paints, solvents, and chemicals. Utilize personal protective equipment (PPE) as required. Maintain a clean, organized, and safe work area, including proper storage of materials and tools. Clean and maintain painting tools and equipment (brushes, rollers, sprayers) after use. Remove all debris and materials from the job site upon completion. Collaboration and Communication: Communicate effectively with property management, maintenance staff, and other team members regarding project status, timelines, and any issues. Coordinate work schedules to ensure timely completion, especially during apartment turnovers. Qualifications and Skills: Education: High school diploma or GED preferred. Experience: Proven experience as a painter, preferably in a residential or apartment setting. Technical Skills: Proficiency in using various painting tools and equipment (brushes, rollers, sprayers, scaffolding, ladders). Knowledge of different paint types, finishes, and their applications. Understanding of color theory and paint mixing principles. Ability to perform basic mathematical calculations for estimating paint quantities. Physical Demands: Ability to stand, walk, bend, kneel, reach, and climb ladders for extended periods. Ability to lift and move heavy items (e.g., paint cans, equipment). Good balance and manual dexterity. Comfortable working at heights and in confined spaces. Soft Skills: Excellent attention to detail and precision. Strong work ethic and reliability. Ability to work independently and as part of a team. Good time management and organizational skills to meet deadlines. Effective communication skills. Positive attitude. Working Conditions: Work typically takes place indoors, but may occasionally involve exterior painting. May be exposed to paint fumes, dust, and varying temperatures.
