What should I look for when hiring a commercial painter?

With every company claiming to be the best, how do you know which one to choose? Unlike researching a new restaurant, B2B reviews are rare. We recommend including the Better Business Bureau to read a business’s credibility and conflict resolution – look for an A+ rating. But BBB can’t show the whole story – do the workers arrive on time? Do they work well with other trades in the mayhem that job sites present? Do they own equipment for commercial painting jobs; bucket trucks, lifts, and dustless blasting equipment? We’ve become one of the most highly recommended commercial painting companies in Columbus and we’ll proudly provide references.

Why hire professional commercial painters?

Commercial job sites can present safety hazards, time restrictions, high-reach, and low-reach applications, OSHA & EPA certifications, and toxic disposal and fume expertise. We use our own fully insured and extensively trained team (not subcontractors) to complete your project on time and on budget.

Is there a best time to paint the exterior of my building?

Since exterior paint requires an ambient temperature of about 50 degrees to produce the best results, spring and summer are ideal for repainting. Please read our article on this topic. Interiors can be painted anytime as long as the interior is climate controlled. Ultra-low-odor paints can add flexibility to the schedule. A brighter workspace increases safety, and morale, and protects your investment. You already know that. It’s why you are here. Give us a call. Advice and estimates are at no cost to you.

What are the benefits of repainting?

A fresh paint job can instantly bring new life to your business. It gives your space a fresh feel and makes those important first impressions into lasting ones. As your business grows and you’re attracting new talent, a comfortable work environment is an added perk. It also has been shown to increase morale and productivity among your employees as well. Read our article about colors and productivity. Lastly, fresh paint can increase the value of your building, so why not?

How long does it take to install epoxy flooring?

Most projects take 1 to 3 days depending on the size of the space, the condition of the concrete, and the type of epoxy system chosen. We’ll provide a clear timeline during your on-site estimate, and we can often schedule work during evenings or weekends to avoid disrupting your business. If your concrete needs repair first, we’ll recommend resurfacing or refinishing it before installation.

How long will commercial epoxy flooring last?

With proper installation and routine maintenance, a high-quality epoxy floor can last 10–20 years in commercial environments. Its durability depends on resin quality, substrate prep, and traffic conditions.

Will epoxy hold up to forklifts and heavy equipment?

Yes. We use industrial-grade epoxy systems designed to handle constant traffic, impact, and heavy loads. For especially demanding environments, we can recommend quartz or urethane-reinforced systems for added durability.

Is epoxy flooring safe when wet or oily?

Epoxy floors can be slippery when wet—but we offer slip-resistant additives, quartz broadcasts, and textured flake systems to enhance traction and meet safety standards.

Can epoxy be applied over existing concrete or tile?

Yes, epoxy can usually be installed over existing concrete and even tile if the substrate is properly prepped through cleaning, grinding, and repair. Preparation is critical to prevent peeling or delamination.

How much does commercial epoxy flooring cost?

Pricing depends on the size of your space, the condition of your existing concrete, and the epoxy system selected. Most commercial jobs fall between $3.50 and $7.00 per square foot. We’ll give you a clear, itemized quote after your site assessment.
