Will Your Commercial Painter Work Weekends to Meet Your Needs?
Working within tight timeframes is nothing new to us.
We have the team and resources necessary to adapt to a wide variety of scheduling needs. In the case of this particular commercial painting project, our client asked us to not only finish the work quickly, but also to work over the weekends so that their production schedule wouldn’t feel any impact.
How Long Does a Commercial Painting Project Last?
A commercial painting project’s timeline revolves around several components, such as the size of the building, what the building produces, hours of operation, the climate, budgets, and more. However, the right contractor will mitigate issues where they can. For example, experienced painters will work on your schedule, without disrupting operations so that you can run your business as usual but they will complete the project by the time they originally quoted. When a painting contractor agrees to work nights, weekends, and other off-hour times, you will see the process go from months down to weeks. The right company also understands how to apply and maintain the right paints to stand up against daily wear and tear, moisture, allergens, and equipment damages in your commercial facility. By working with a team of people who can reduce the need for future paint jobs as well as bring your timeline to a minimum, you can focus on running your business instead of supervising a vendor.
Laying Down the Groundwork and Familiarizing Ourselves with New Paint Products
We painted three different spaces within this food processing facility, and used a new paint product from a new vendor. We were confident that it would meet our client’s needs perfectly, but we had to work quickly to familiarize ourselves with it. The preparation and application process involved multiple steps, including mixing two parts and bi-products in a specific sequence.
The project manager who oversaw the work done here began with two different walk-arounds with our client, and one with the subcontractor that was involved as well. Our goal in doing this was to keep communication, expectations, and our process clearly defined. This is always important, but especially so when a tight deadline is driving every detail.
Containing and Completing the Painting Process, All While Meeting Our Deadline
As promised, the work was started and completed over three weekends. After containing our workspace and thorough surface preparation, the entire process was smooth, efficient, and never interfered with our client’s production or operations. In fact, we are already discussing further maintenance and painting opportunities. We look forward to it!
As we mentioned above, we painted three different spaces over these weekends, but the most drastic transformation involved the metal door you can see in the slideshow above.
