The Physical Plant is responsible for exterior and interior painting of campus academic buildings. Painting is accomplished on a timetable allowing all facilities to be repainted over a set period of time. Additionally, situations may occur due to unforeseen maintenance requirements. This is a non-cost service to all departments.
Billable paint services include all painting considered cosmetic or not in sequence with the repainting schedule. A building inspection is performed by the Building Inspector to determine whether paintwork is maintenance or cosmetic. Maintenance painting is done for surface protection and is determined by the degree of paint deterioration. Painting to cover soiled areas or marks uncovered by moving wall-hung items and furniture is generally considered cosmetic. All campus non-academic facilities may engage the Physical Plant for paint services on a billable basis.
Billable paint services may include:
- Dry walling, texturing and painting associated with remodeling or renovation
- Refinish furniture
- Paint or stain new furniture
- Change color of walls, trim, cabinets and doors, etc.
Street and curb striping and painting is performed and maintained by the Campus Police Department.
