Winter Maintenance Tips for Commercial Buildings | CPI

June 4, 2025
There are three tips to maintaining your facility for winter.

Weather changes are inevitable while the preventative approach to maintain your facility through season change, will ultimately save you time and money! 


Do you manage a home, business facility or commercial space? Here are three tips to consider for the winter season.

  1. Check your Gutter System – We recommend that your gutters are checked and cleaned twice a year, fall and spring. Accumulated debris can cause moisture rusting the drain and moss growth.
  2. Check the Windows – Make sure all your windows are sealed and there are no leaks. Moisture in windows can lead to warping, rotting and distorting the frame.
  3. Check your Wood – Unprotected wood expands with moisture and contacts with heat which results in Dry Rot. We recommend that your wood is protected with paint at all times to prevent Dry Rot and Termite Invasion.

Checking off these simple tips off a checklist will prepare any building structure for unpredictable weather while saving time and money in the long run. If help is needed, Commercial Painting Inc., is only a phone call away!

It’s a sight no property owner wants to see: a dark, bubbling paint stain on the wall or a discolored patch spreading across the ceiling. Water damage. Here in the Bay Area, whether from a winter storm or a plumbing leak, it's a high-stress problem. The first instinct is often to find the quickest, cheapest fix. "Can't I just paint over it?" We hear this all the time. It’s a tempting thought—grab some stain-blocking primer, cover it up, and pretend it never happened. Unfortunately, this "quick fix" is one of the worst things you can do. It's like putting a small bandage on a serious wound. You're not fixing the problem; you're just hiding it while it gets worse.
