Commercial Painting

Commercial painting

Safe Choice Painting paints commercial buildings across North Texas and southern Oklahoma: offices, retail stores, restaurants, churches and other commercial properties, inside and out. We offer scheduling that works around your business hours, free written estimates and an insured crew.

The prep and finish standards are the same ones we use on our interior painting and exterior painting jobs, planned around a building that has customers, staff or members coming through it.

What kinds of commercial properties do you paint?

• Offices and professional suites: walls, ceilings, doors and trim, often one suite or floor at a time.
• Retail stores and showrooms: sales floors, back rooms and storefronts, with color changes for a new brand or business.
• Restaurants: dining rooms, entries and exteriors, with cleanable finishes where hands and chairs touch the walls.
• Churches and places of worship: sanctuaries, halls, classrooms and exteriors.
• Other buildings: small warehouses, shops and mixed-use properties.

How does scheduling work around your business hours?

Before the work starts, we walk the property with you and agree on which areas get painted in which order, and when. Work is planned room by room or section by section so the rest of the building stays open. Entrances are kept clear, work areas are marked, and desks, shelving and fixtures are covered or moved with your staff. Each area is cleaned up before it goes back into use.

Interior commercial painting

Inside, the work covers walls, ceilings, doors, frames and trim. Scuffs and dents are patched, and surfaces are cleaned and sanded so the new coat sticks. Paint finishes are chosen for the space: flatter finishes on ceilings, washable finishes in hallways, break rooms and restrooms. We plan for air flow during and after painting and talk through low-odor options for spaces in use.

Exterior commercial painting

Outside, the work covers storefronts, siding, stucco, brick, trim, doors, railings and metal surfaces. Every exterior starts with pressure washing or soft washing, then scraping, sanding, patching, caulking and priming. Rust on metal is cleaned and primed. Exterior work is scheduled around weather: NOAA's normals put Denton's wettest months in May, at 4.86 inches of rain, and October, at 4.64, and paint goes on only once surfaces are dry.

Churches and places of worship

We paint churches inside and out, from sanctuaries and fellowship halls to classrooms and front doors. Work is planned around services and events so the building is ready when the congregation needs it.

Brand colors and finishes

Many businesses have set colors for logos, accent walls and storefronts. Bring us the paint codes or a sample and we match them, then put a test patch on the wall so you see it in the building's own light before the full coat goes on. For multi-location brands, the same products and sheens can be specified at each site so they look alike. Doors, frames and handrails in busy areas get harder-wearing enamels that clean up without losing their finish.

What to expect on a commercial job

1. Walkthrough. We look at every surface to be painted and note repairs, access and how the space is used day to day.
2. Written estimate. You get a free written estimate listing the areas, prep, products and number of coats.
3. Schedule. Together we set the order of areas and the dates, built around your business hours.
4. Prep and paint. Each area is protected, prepped and painted, then cleaned up before it reopens.
5. Final walk. We walk the finished work with you and touch up anything that needs it.

What does commercial painting cost?

It depends on the size of the space, the surfaces, how much prep they need and the schedule. The walkthrough gives you a free written estimate for your property.

Shared buildings and church campuses

Strip centers, professional buildings and church campuses often have several groups using the same space. We can schedule common areas, hallways and exteriors separately from individual suites or classrooms, and we keep one contact person updated on what is next, so businesses, staff and members know which areas are open each day.

Tall walls, railings and metal doors

Tall storefronts and high interior walls go up on lifts or scaffolding. OSHA's construction rules require fall protection on scaffolds more than 10 feet above a lower level, so access is planned before painting starts. Galvanized railings and metal doors need cleaning and a compatible primer; Dunn-Edwards warns that alkyd paints can peel off galvanized steel. Churches have their own page: church painting.
