Painter Apprentice - Ottawa

Professional painters are responsible for
preparing, protecting, and decorating interior and exterior surfaces by
applying paint, wallpaper and various special coatings. These can be applied in
a number of different settings, and are generally divided into commercial,
residential and industrial.

The three types of professional painting include:

• Industrial Painting: Industrial painters
  work primarily in infrastructure, construction and manufacturing settings
  to apply various epoxies, urethane and other protective coatings to a
  variety of materials and surfaces. Being an industrial painter provides
  tradespeople the opportunity to work on a variety of worksites, with the
  opportunity to apply your unique set of skills in many settings, or to
  sub -specialize in one of the coating styles.
  
• Commercial Painting: Commercial painters
  are tasked with the final stages of construction jobs at places like
  office buildings, hospitals and shipping centers. They can work indoors
  and outdoors, and on small and large scale projects. Like industrial
  painting, commercial painting offers tradespeople dynamic work settings,
  with the opportunity to work with new teams and across a wide geographic
  area.
  
• Residential
  Painting: Residential painters paint the interior and
  exterior of residential homes. Residential painters get to work with people, by
  communicating with the client throughout the process to ensure they get the final
  look they desire. Residential painters’ work environments always change, so
  each job looks different from the last.
