N° 07 · Our Procedure
The four-act process behind every Burloak project.
Twenty-five years of pattern-matching distilled into a single, repeatable methodology — so the same standard lands on every wall, in every neighbourhood.
Act I · 01
Consultation & Quote
Every project begins with an on-site walkthrough — we measure the rooms, read the light, look at your art and furniture, listen to what you actually want. From there: a detailed written estimate within 24-48 hours, broken out by surface so you can see exactly what you're paying for.
- On-site walkthrough
- Surface-by-surface measure
- Colour consultation
- Written quote in 24-48 hours
Act II · 02
Surface Preparation
The 80% of the work nobody sees but everybody feels. Floors and furniture protected. Walls washed, sanded, patched, caulked. Trim de-glossed. Bare wood spot-primed. Anything we miss here will show up in five years — so we don't miss anything.
- Full protection of floors & furniture
- Sand, patch, caulk every surface
- Spot-prime bare wood & stains
- Dust-control protocol throughout
Act III · 03
Application
Benjamin Moore Aura, Regal Select or Sherwin-Williams Emerald as standard. Two finish coats, rolled with micro-fibre, cut by hand. Trim, doors and cabinetry get the high-build alkyd-modified enamel treatment — chip-resistant, washable, factory-grade.
- Premium Benjamin Moore & Sherwin-Williams
- Two finish coats minimum
- Hand-cut lines, micro-fibre roll
- Spray-finish on doors & cabinets
Act IV · 04
Walk-Through & Warranty
We don't leave until you sign off. Together we walk every room, flag anything that needs another pass, and address it on the spot. You receive a written workmanship warranty — if anything fails because of how we applied it, we come back and make it right.
- Walk-through with you, room by room
- Written punch-list, addressed same-day
- Property left cleaner than we found it
- Written workmanship warranty
