Services

Our team commences by meticulously cleaning, sanding, and dusting the cabinets surfaces, ensuring they are pristine before applying paint. The surfaces are then primed, and scuff-sanded once more, wiping down a second time to eliminate any residual dust. To intricately paint your cabinet doors and body, we skillfully utilize brushes, rollers, or sprayers, always lightly scuff-sanding between coats. A final coat of paint is applied and once dry, we conclude by reassembling all hardware and doors, ensuring they not only function effectively but also exceed your expectations in aesthetics.

At Van Isle Paint, we cater to a wide range of sectors such as offices, schools, film sets, government establishments, military structures, new constructions, and retail outlets.

If you need to protect a concrete floor from harsh exposure, such as heavy foot or vehicular traffic, dust, debris, or the general rigors of a workplace, our epoxy coating is the ideal solution.
At Van Isle Paint, we use diamond grinders and surface cleaners prior to application to ensure optimal adhesion of the floor surface to the epoxy. Our trained and professional applicators meticulously apply industrial-grade, commercial-grade products. The durability of epoxy, combined with decorative chip flakes and a non-slip clear coat, results in an immaculate, long-lasting floor coating.

I can't say enough good things about Van Isle. They did an exterior job at our strata over two weeks and took care to do things right without mess and minimal disruption. Communication was good. They did extra work to repair weathered wood that was really appreciated. Their quote was lowest and they turned out to be an excellent choice. I'd turn to them again and recommend them.

Glen and team just completed a painting & renovation project for our 2 bedroom suite. They transformed the suite from an older, 1980's look to a modern 2023 look through their diligent, quality work. It has been the best experience we have had with any contractor so far - service, professionalism, communication and quality of work have all been exceptional!

Glen and his team were absolutely amazing. I had emailed him on a Sunday with the smallest job (not even worth it for most painters) but he got back to me right away and worked with me around a few logistics to get the space ready for him and his team. It would have been really easy for him to say "no" like I had gotten from a few other people, but he was so kind as to find a team member that would be close by and could pop in to do this 20 min touch up. I could no recommend Glen and Van Isle Paint enough and I will definitely be looking to work with them again. 5*, highly recommended :)

Van Isle painted our 1 1/2 storey Stucco Oak Bay home almost 2 years ago, a complex house with lots of corners, overhangs and trim details. The paint has held up very well and looks excellent. The work was done very professionally. Glen, Jamie and Hannah were pleasant to deal with and the cost was fair and competitive. We were so pleased we had them paint/renew our 17 year old Kitchen Merit cabinets the following year, the end result was excellent, looking like new, saved us a bunch. The cost of new cabinets would have been very costly. Hannah went to great lengths to make sure we would get the quality we wished for, very happy.

We had the crew from Van Isle paint the outside of our hotel and large shopping complex and not only did they do a great job they did it on time, on budget and Jamie and his team were a pleasure to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend this company for anything to do with painting! Nick Coates GM Victoria Airport Days Inn

We had all of our exteriors repainted and our driveways sealed back in the summer of 2021. Glen was able to squeeze us in even though he was already so busy! I'm very glad we ended up using their services. The quote was very reasonable. We also had some trees in our neighbourhood release their pollen right around the time when work was being completed and it affected how the sealant set on the driveway. Glen not only came out to inspect the final result multiple times himself, he even redid the whole driveway because it wasn't up to his standard! Hannah was also extremely lovely to work with and very professional. Van Isle Paint will always have our business and you should do the same.

It was a pleasure to work with Van Isle. Their admin staff and painters are very friendly and the communication was great. Van Isle painted five of our AirBnB/short term rental units at Waddington Flats in Downtown Victoria. Each one of our units has a different theme, and there were lots of paint colours and unconventional requests we had. I appreciated the Van Isle team's willingness to be creative with me on this project!
The admin team worked with me on my specific timelines, and the painting team showed up on schedule and on-time. I will definitely give Van Isle a call on my next project in the Victoria area!
