Public Storage Repainting in Santa Clara CA | CPI

October 30, 2025

For national brands, your building's exterior is more than just a structure; it's your most visible brand ambassador. A clean, vibrant, and well-maintained appearance signals reliability and professionalism. But what happens when weather and time take their toll?

Our team was recently contracted to execute a crucial brand refresh for Public Storage in Santa Clara, California.

The Challenge: A Faded Brand Image

Over time, the California sun and normal wear had caused the building’s coatings to fade and fail. The iconic Public Storage orange had lost its brightness, and the metal and concrete surfaces showed clear signs of wear.

This wasn't just a cosmetic problem. A dull, worn-down appearance can weaken a powerful brand image, subtly communicating a lack of attention to detail. Our mission was to restore the signature bold color and bring back the clean, professional look that customers expect from a trusted national brand.

The Solution: Zero-Disruption Commercial Painting


We understand that for a client like Public Storage, closing down for maintenance is not an option. Our experienced commercial painting crew executed the project with a plan focused on efficiency, safety, and zero disruption to business operations.


The scope of this exterior project included:

  • Metal gates
  • Concrete bollards
  • Cinder block walls


We used specialty commercial-grade coatings specifically designed for high-traffic environments and long-term durability. These coatings ensure the property will look great for years to come, keeping future maintenance costs manageable.

The Result: A Bold Refresh That Protects Investment


The transformation was immediate. The refreshed paint now gives the facility a clean, bold, and professional appearance that stands out.


But the results go deeper than curb appeal:

  • The restored iconic orange reinforces the Public Storage brand, ensuring consistency and customer trust.
  • The new, high-performance coatings protect the metal and concrete surfaces from weather and wear.
  • This preventative maintenance protects the property from deterioration, preserving its long-term value.

Here in the Bay Area , our buildings face a unique set of challenges. From the persistent fog and moisture in the city to the strong sun in the valleys, our properties are in a constant battle with the elements. It’s easy to look at the resulting peeling paint, a dirty facade, or a small spot of rust as a cosmetic problem—something to "clean up" when you have the time or budget. At Commercial Painting Inc., we’ve seen what happens when "upkeep" is put off. That small rust spot becomes a major corrosion problem. That peeling paint lets moisture in, damaging the material underneath. What was a simple maintenance task becomes a costly, large-scale repair. This is why we believe maintenance matters. We're passionate about making the Bay Area prettier through paint, but we know "pretty" doesn't last unless it's built on a strong foundation.
