CHISM COMMERCIAL'S PEACE OF MIND GUARANTEE
Our Promise to You
1. Professional Oversight, Not Guesswork
Every project is managed by an experienced team—including a dedicated estimator, project manager, and production lead—to ensure smooth execution, accountability, and zero surprises.
2. Clean, Safe, and Respectful Jobsites
Our in-house crews treat every space with care. We maintain clean, secure worksites, follow proper safety protocols, and respect your tenants, customers, and business hours.
3. Clear Communication From Start to Finish
You’ll always know what’s happening, who’s responsible, and what’s coming next. We prioritize clarity—whether it's scheduling, scope changes, or progress updates.
4. Built-In Quality Control
Our project managers are senior-level painters trained to spot issues before they become problems. Every job includes quality checks at key phases—not just at the end.
5. A Full Team Behind Every Job
You’re not relying on one person. From the office to the field, we have layers of support in place—including our general manager, estimator, project managers, and production team—to keep your job moving and responsive every step of the way.
6. Built for the Long-Term
We’re not a “paint it and forget it” kind of company. We build relationships for the long haul—helping you maintain your properties with care, consistency, and trusted service year after year.
HERE'S HOW IT WORKS
Our Process
No shortcuts. No chaos. Just a smooth, reliable experience from first call to final walkthrough.
Walk the Property
We start by walking your property with you. We listen, take notes, assess surface conditions, and help identify issues before they become bigger problems.
Build the Plan
You’ll receive a clear, detailed proposal built by our commercial project estimator. Once approved, your project is scheduled and managed by our production team—so you know exactly what’s happening, when, and why.
Execute the Work
Our skilled painters show up prepared and professional. Your dedicated project manager oversees the work, keeps communication flowing, and ensures everything stays on schedule and on spec.
Maintain & Protect
Once the job is done, we don’t disappear. Whether it’s a warranty walkthrough, a proactive maintenance plan, or a quick site revisit, we’re here to help you keep your property looking its best long after the last brushstroke.
ABOUT US
Who We Work With
We specialize in repaints, maintenance painting, and light general contracting for commercial and institutional properties. But more than that—our clients rely on us to be their first call when something doesn’t look right on their property.
Across San Diego County, we’ve seen it all—sun damage, substrate failure, moisture issues, wear from high-traffic environments, and everything in between. With over 40 years of hands-on commercial experience, we know how to assess the situation, offer practical next steps, and either take care of it ourselves or bring in a trusted partner.
Painting is our specialty—but being your go-to problem-solver is what sets us apart.
