Residential Painting
Residential Painters in Vancouver, BC
Residential painting is the heart of what we do at 4C Painters Vancouver. From character homes in Kitsilano and Mount Pleasant to modern builds on the North Shore, townhouses in Burnaby and laneway homes across East Van, we treat every house like it's our own — clean, on-time crews, premium paint, and a finish that genuinely lasts.
Houses, townhouses, condos, duplexes, laneway homes — residential painting covers everything you live in, and every one of them has its own quirks. Our residential painters arrive on time, in uniform, and with a clear plan for the day. We protect floors with rosin paper and runners, mask furniture and fixtures, contain dust, and keep odours to a minimum with low-VOC paints. Every project starts with a detailed written quote — no vague estimates, no surprise upcharges.
Prep is where we beat the competition: patching, sanding, caulking, priming and stain blocking before a single drop of finish paint hits the wall. We use premium Benjamin Moore (Regal Select, Aura) and Sherwin-Williams (Cashmere, Emerald) products, apply two full coats, and finish with a walkthrough where you can flag anything you want touched up. Colour consultation is included, our work is fully insured and WCB-covered, and every project is backed by a written workmanship warranty.
Whether it's one room, a whole-home repaint, an exterior refresh before listing, cabinets in the kitchen or trim throughout the house, you'll get the same crew, the same standards and the same warranty. Our residential clients across Vancouver, Burnaby, Richmond, the North Shore and the rest of Metro Vancouver consistently leave 5-star reviews because we communicate clearly, hit deadlines, and leave the house cleaner than we found it.

Built for Vancouver homes & weather
Vancouver residential homes range from heritage character houses in Strathcona and Kitsilano, to 70s split-levels on the East Side, to modern North Shore builds, to high-end Westside renovations. Each substrate — original lath-and-plaster, drywall over strapping, fibre-cement siding, cedar shingle — needs a different prep and product. We've painted thousands of Vancouver homes and know exactly which system to spec for yours.
