29 municipalities, one crew
Toronto and its five former boroughs, then Peel, York, Durham and Halton. Each city page says what the housing stock asks of a painter, how the crew gets in, and which jobs we see most. [John confirms the service area.]
City of Toronto
The old city and its five former boroughs: century semis with plaster walls and layers of old paint, postwar bungalows with popcorn ceilings, and condo towers where the crew books the elevator and works around building hours. [condo rules confirmed per building]
Peel Region
Mississauga, Brampton and Caledon. Postwar bungalows and 1980s two-storeys on their third or fourth repaint, new subdivisions still wearing builder flat, and Caledon houses with long exteriors of brick, stucco and wood trim.
York Region
Vaughan, Richmond Hill and Markham bring tall ceilings, open stairwells and large exteriors. Aurora, Newmarket and King bring older main-street houses and estate lots; Stouffville, East Gwillimbury and Georgina bring newer subdivisions and lakeside cottages.
