Airport and transportation facility painting · St. Lucie County

Airport and transportation facility painting in St. Lucie County

St. Lucie County runs two transportation sites with their own access rules: Treasure Coast International Airport, a county general aviation airport, and the Port of Fort Pierce. We quote painting at both. Access is arranged with the operator before the work is scheduled.

The airport covers 3,844 acres and houses a U.S. Customs and Border Protection office and an aircraft rescue and firefighting service. Buildings that stay in daily use mean work is phased by area, with the airport deciding where workers and lifts may go, who escorts them and at what hours.

The Port of Fort Pierce is managed by the county's Department of Port, Inlet and Beaches, with a shipyard tenant servicing megayachts. Buildings there sit beside Fort Pierce Inlet. Prep and coating choices follow that exposure, and debris is kept out of the water.

Romco does not claim past airport work. What we bring is the planning: a written access plan, badging or escort requests made through the operator, after-hours phasing, and a scope that lists every area the job will touch.

Both sites sit around Fort Pierce. Read the Fort Pierce page

Order of work

  1. Meet the operator and get the access, escort and work-hour rules.
  2. Walk the buildings and write the scope by area and phase.
  3. Submit worker and equipment requests through the operator.
  4. Wash, capture water and prepare surfaces in the open phase.
  5. Apply coatings, then release each area back to the operator.
  6. Walk the finished areas with the operator and close the punch list.

What usually goes wrong

Where this job goes wrong in St. Lucie County

Access rules set by the operator

Each operator decides who may enter which area and on what terms. We ask for those rules first and build the schedule from them, not the other way round.

Daily operations near the work

Customs and rescue services keep working through a repaint. Areas are closed in phases agreed with the operator, often outside busy hours.

Salt and wind at the inlet

Port buildings near Fort Pierce Inlet take salt spray. Surfaces are washed and tested before coating, and spray work is limited by wind.

Outside scope

Runway and taxiway markings, airfield lighting, fuel system coatings and any work governed by aviation rules we have not been shown are outside this scope unless the operator confirms them in writing.

Questions

About airport and transportation facility painting

Have you painted at Treasure Coast International Airport?

This site makes no claim about earlier airport work. Romco quotes the work and plan it around the access rules the airport's operator sets.

Who arranges access for workers?

Romco makes the requests, but the operator decides. The airport and the port each set who may enter, with or without an escort, and when.

What will painting my St. Lucie building cost?

We do not give a figure until we have walked the building, because the number turns on things a phone call cannot show: how much stucco needs repair, how the walls are reached, whether a Port St. Lucie color review or a Fort Pierce certificate comes first, and how the wash water is captured. After the walk you get a written quote, broken out by surface and by step, so you can compare it line by line.

Is there a job size Romco will not quote?

No. We quote one repainted tenant suite in a plaza on US 1 and we quote the full exterior of an oceanfront condominium on Hutchinson Island. Small jobs get the same written scope as large ones.

Is Romco licensed?

Yes. Romco Builders is a licensed Florida general contractor. It was founded in 2015, is based in Fort Lauderdale, and runs St. Lucie County painting jobs under that license.

How Romco runs it

The order of work

  1. Walk the building, check the jurisdiction

    We confirm whether the address falls under the county, Port St. Lucie, Fort Pierce or St. Lucie Village, and note any historic designation.

  2. Write the scope

    Surfaces, repairs, coatings, access equipment and working hours go into one written scope, so the quote compares line by line.

  3. Clear color approvals

    Where Port St. Lucie's chart or a Fort Pierce certificate applies, the color is approved before any paint is ordered.

  4. Prepare and contain

    Cleaning, repairs and masking come first, with wash water captured instead of sent to a storm inlet.

  5. Apply the coatings

    Coats go on to the maker's written instructions for temperature, humidity and recoat time, not to a calendar.

  6. Walk it and close out

    We walk the finished surfaces with you, write a punch list, finish it and hand over the color and product records.
