About Pace Turn Crews
A painting firm built around the vacancy
One job, done on a clock, for the people who run rental buildings.
Garland Pace started the firm because turns were the job nobody planned for: a move-out on Friday, a showing on Monday, and a painter who couldn't come. So the firm keeps crews that do only turns, a desk that books them, and a report you can read from your phone.
Three turn crews with their own leads
A turn desk that schedules, texts and invoices
Crews trained on pre-1978 work practices
