Plantation, Broward County
Commercial painting in Plantation
Plantation ties exterior color to zoning review. In 2021 the Plan Adjustment Committee approved a new paint scheme for a 1982 office and bank on West Broward Boulevard, on condition that a Paint Color and Approval form clear the Zoning Department before any building permit was issued.
That case, PM21-0037, is a useful map of the process. The approved work included a painted stucco finish over the existing Chattahoochee stone pebble and a new exterior paint scheme. Condition 3 required the Paint Color and Approval form to be approved by Zoning before the permit. Condition 4 required the dumpster enclosure doors and monument sign to be repainted to match the new building colors. It is one case, not a citywide rule for every repaint.
The building in that report is a 27,512 square-foot, three-story office and bank with a drive-through, zoned M-PM, Mixed Use Plantation Midtown. Going from exposed stone pebble to painted stucco is a finish change, not only a color change, and the committee reviewed it as part of a site plan modification rather than a simple repaint.
Two details from that report shape how Romco quotes in Plantation. The color form comes before the permit, so the schedule starts with Zoning, not with a lift delivery. And the city looked past the main walls to the enclosures and the sign, so ancillary structures belong in the scope from day one rather than surfacing at final inspection.

Questions
Commercial painting in Plantation
Does Plantation review paint colors on commercial buildings?
It has. In 2021 the Plan Adjustment Committee approved a new paint scheme for an office and bank, with a Paint Color and Approval form required from the Zoning Department before the building permit. Ask Zoning what your specific repaint needs.
What does commercial painting cost?
Every job is quoted from a walk of the building, or from photos and drawings when they show enough. The number depends on the surfaces and their condition, how much prep and repair they need, the coating system, the access each elevation needs, whether people stay inside during the work, and what approvals come first. We do not publish rates, because two buildings that look alike rarely are.
What about lead paint on an older building?
Paint applied before 1978 can contain lead. Federal EPA rules on renovation, repair and painting cover work that disturbs paint in pre-1978 housing and in child-occupied facilities, and where they apply the work is done by a certified firm with lead-safe practices. We check the building's age and use before the scope is written.
How long does a commercial repaint take?
A schedule comes after the walk-through, not before it. The schedule depends on the size and condition of the surfaces, the repairs found once washing is done, the weather, the access method, any board or color approval, and the hours the building allows us to work. Once those are known, you get a sequence with the dependencies named.
