The natural beauty of Vancouver Island is sought as a destination for millions each year. As local stewards of our community, it’s our job to respect the land and make sure our planet is kept clean and tidy.
Details within the painting process
With our natural environment changing each day, Top Coat Painting identifies the details within the painting process, and creates efficiencies that support more sustainable business practices. Creating excess waste like paint, plastic, toxic solvents and other disposable painting materials may not seem important on small painting projects, but over time and without due care, this small waste builds up.
Our environmental initiatives
That’s why Top Coat Painting is constantly innovating new ways of minimizing the effects of the painting industry on the environment. One of these environmental initiatives is our complimentary Paint Recycling Program, which increases awareness and accountability for proper paint disposal and recycling. By collecting and disposing all your old unwanted paint, we save you time, eliminate cluttered areas, and save the environment from unsafe disposal practices.
