Commercial Work Around
Matthews and Union County
About a third of the housing units in Matthews are in apartment, condo or townhome buildings, and the town is ringed by HOA neighborhoods with clubhouses, pools and entry monuments. That keeps a steady flow of turnover painting and common-area work alongside the shops and offices along Matthews Township Parkway and the downtown streets.
Commercial projects larger than residential repaints raise two questions that homeowners rarely face. North Carolina requires a general contractor license from the NC Licensing Board for General Contractors when a project's total cost is $40,000 or more, and the owner or manager should ask for certificates of liability and workers' compensation insurance before work begins.
Occupied buildings need low-odor products and good ventilation, following EPA indoor air guidance, and buildings or child-occupied facilities built before 1978 fall under lead-safe rules.
- Nights and weekends available for occupied spaces
- Certificates of insurance sent before day one
- Color schedules by area for owners, managers and boards
- Phased turnover work on fixed move-in dates
34% of Matthews housing units are in multi-unit buildings (ACS 2020-2024)

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on scheduling, licensing, insurance and occupied buildings.
01 How much does commercial painting cost in Matthews NC?
Commercial work is priced from a site walk and a scope, because access, hours, coatings and phasing drive cost. HomeGuide puts new construction and commercial interior rates at about $2 to $6 per square foot nationally (September 2025). That is a planning figure, not a Matthews price.
