Facility Description

The food facility in Englewood plays a crucial role in the company’s operations within the State. Their facilities are also designed to maintain the highest standards of food safety and operational efficiency.

Requested Maintenance

Faced with the need to maintain their facility's aesthetics and structural integrity, the client sought a comprehensive exterior repaint and sealing service. The facility's external walls required power washing, removal & replacement of compromised caulk, and a refresh of its existing color scheme & accent stripes to uphold its professional appearance.

Decision Driver and Timing

The driving factors for this project stemmed from the need to preserve and protect the facility's external surfaces against weathering and to ensure regulatory compliance with food safety standards. Maintaining a clean, well-kept appearance also reflects the company's commitment to quality in all aspects of its operations.

Scope of Work

Power washing of all exterior surfaces to remove grime and prepare for painting
Removal of old caulk from the bottom horizontal joint and replacing it with new backer rod before sealing with 2-part polyurethane caulk
Application of BM Ultra Spec Flat to match the existing colors of the raked concrete and building exterior
Accent stripes painted with BM Ultra Spec Lo-Luster, carefully matched to existing colors
Thorough cleanup of work areas post-project to leave the facility in pristine condition

Notable Details

The project required coordination for the movement of cars and access to a water source for power washing, demonstrating flexibility and adaptability in project execution.

Work was strategically planned to be carried out off booms, ensuring the facility's regular operations were not hampered. This allowed it to continue its essential food processing and distribution activities without significant downtime.

Matching the existing colors and ensuring the new work seamlessly blended with the old required a keen eye for detail and precision, qualities for which Painters USA is renowned in the commercial painting industry.

Adherence to safety measures was paramount during the project, ensuring a safe working environment for both the Painters USA team and the facility's employees. The cleanup process ensured that the facility was left in excellent condition, reflecting the professionalism and high standards of both the client and Painters USA.
