"For example, if the painting of power poles is an anticipated, routine, and periodic event to keep them from degrading and to maintain them in their original condition, then the painting is generally considered maintenance work. However, if a bridge was to be stripped and re-painted, that would be considered construction work even if the repainting were done on a scheduled basis because of the complexity and scale. "
They did not just re-paint the parking lot in my area, they re-did the ground then painted it over it. The concrete was new. Now idk if they still counts but you let me know how you feel
