Why NOW is the Best Time to Paint your Commercial Property

Getting started on your commercial painting project is a major undertaking. Whether you are feeling excited about the process of choosing colors or are dreading the way this project will impact your schedule, any painting job can disrupt your company’s daily routine on an average workday. If you are a property owner or business manager, you will want to think about how you can best schedule this with the least possible disruption to your schedule. In many cases, the best time to do this is when your building is already unoccupied or occupied at a lower rate than usual.

Key Benefits of Painting Unoccupied Buildings

As you probably already know, it is vital to keep both the interior and the exterior of your building well-painted if you want to maintain your business’s reputation and protect your tangible assets. In many cases, a high-quality professional commercial painting job can actually help your business build on its success.

While painting your building may seem like a simple proposition, it can be anything but that as you consider the amount of time and effort that you will need to put into the project. Slapping paint on walls is simple. However, if you have tall walls and ceilings, steel structures or expensive equipment to paint around, you will find that this project takes on more difficulties. Professional commercial painters from Schwartz & Sons can help you take care of each of these concerns while eliminating stress.

The other concern when it comes to commercial painting is ensuring that you have scheduled the project when it will not be disruptive to your customers or employees. Consider the following benefits of painting unoccupied buildings before scheduling your next project.

-You will not interrupt customers or employees.

If you schedule your commercial painting project for a time when customers and employees are not present, such as during the off-season or over the holidays, you will find that your project will go far more smoothly than you could have imagined. If your business already shuts down for a week or two at some point in the year, aim for this period. However, if you are never closed but have a slower season, such as during the winter, consider scheduling the project then.

In addition, consider whether your employees already work remotely at certain times or are currently forced to work remotely due to the coronavirus. If this is the case and your building is empty, this is the ideal time to schedule painting work. You will not have to worry about the hassle of changing your work schedule or of changing traffic patterns and workflow in your business if everyone is already comfortably working from home. Plus, customers and guests will stay safe as they do not have to work their way around bulky or hazardous painting equipment.

-Your job will get done faster than you could have imagined.

When a professional painting crew can come in and paint your business uninterrupted, they can get done with their project faster than you may have imagined because they will not be dealing with distractions. If painters do not have a fixed schedule that they have to adhere to in order to work best with your business’s hours, they can come in when it suits them best, start work early and work late when needed. This can significantly speed up the entire painting process. In fact, they may even be able to increase the number of workers on the job, and they may be able to work in more than one zone at a time. Not only will this decrease delays on the job, but also it will save you money.

Even if your business is never completely empty, such as if you manage a health care facility or hotel, there are still ways to expedite the painting process. Consider shutting down a single section of your business to allow painters to work uninterrupted there. Once that spot is completed, you can reopen the newly painted zone and close down a new zone for painting.

-Your completed paint job will look fantastic.

Many businesses have not taken advantage of their slower seasons in the past to get their professional commercial painting jobs completed on both the interior and exterior of their businesses. Not only have they missed out on the speed of accomplishing tasks this way, but also they may have missed out on the highest quality work possible.

If your business is currently going through a slow season, chances are high that professional painters are experiencing similar issues. Therefore, the contractor and painters you hire will have more time than usual to complete and perfect the project. By spending more time than usual on surface preparation, painting and finishing, your completed project will look amazing and will last for years. Painters can reduce the risk of chipped or peeling paint in the future and can decrease the amount of maintenance you will need to do in later years by attending to the details of each of these steps.

Every business goes through slower seasons now and then. By looking on the brighter side, you can reduce your stress and find ways to use this season to its best advantage. One of the best things you may be able to do during this time is to improve the look of both the interior and exterior of your building.

At first glance, painting your business may seem like a time-consuming and thankless task. However, ignoring it can lead to long-lasting, negative consequences. Instead, use the slower seasons in your business to take advantage of the best professional commercial painting job possible from Schwartz & Sons painters. This will reduce disruptions to your usual business practices and limit distractions to customers. If you are currently working remotely, getting these important tasks accomplished now will mean that your building will be looking its best when your employees return to work.
