A facility repaint is not a weekend project — it's a coordinated job that has to happen without stalling your business. Southeast Commercial Services plans each phase around your hours, protects your equipment and inventory, and hands you a written scope you can hold a crew to.
For over 30 years we've coated Atlanta's offices, warehouses, and industrial buildings for the facility managers, property owners, and operations directors who answer for how those buildings look and hold up. Painting is one line in a full commercial facility program — so a repaint can be bundled with flooring, lighting, or repairs under one contract.
Vetting a painting contractor for a six-figure building is a due-diligence job. Here's what clears our name through procurement before the first coat is ever specified.
Established in 1991, with 30+ years coating commercial and industrial property across the metro.
Crews trained and equipped for fall protection, containment, ventilation, and confined-space work.
Southeast Commercial Services of Georgia LLC — a registered, licensed contractor you can verify.
Trained to install leading coating lines to spec, which is what keeps product warranties valid.
General liability and workers' comp in place; we issue a certificate naming your property on request.
Bonding gives owners and managers a layer of financial recourse most crews can't offer.
Set up to work inside general-contractor project systems on new construction and build-outs.
We don't paint houses. Every crew, spec, and schedule is built for occupied business facilities.
Measured quantities and named coating systems so you can compare us against other bidders line for line.
A single project lead owns your job start to finish — no chasing a rotating cast of subs.
A durable commercial finish starts with matching the right coating chemistry to the substrate it has to protect — then installing it the way the manufacturer intended.
Commercial buildings mix a dozen substrates, and each one takes prep and product differently. We coat:
We spec the finish to the environment it lives in, not to whatever's on the shelf:
The coating is only as good as the way the job is managed around it. On every project we:
When a coating job goes sideways, it rarely fails on color. It fails on the things a property manager actually loses sleep over — a crew that no-shows mid-phase, overspray on a tenant's inventory, a lobby that reeks of solvent during business hours, or a "contractor" who turns out to be one person and a borrowed sprayer. Those are the risks that land on your desk, not the painter's.
We built our commercial operation to take those risks off your plate. That means insured crews who show up when the schedule says they will, containment and protection planned before anyone opens a can, and a single project lead who answers the phone when you call. You get one contract, one accountable team, and a building that keeps running while it gets recoated.
Work is phased around your operations so the building stays open, staffed, and productive throughout the job.
Licensed, bonded, and multi-million-dollar insured, with a certificate of insurance issued to your property on request.
No rotating subs. One project lead runs your job from walkthrough to final punch-list and stands behind the result.
Beyond standard interior and exterior repaints, we handle the industrial and site-marking work a full facility often needs on the same visit.
From a single office suite to an entire distribution campus, here's the range of surfaces and buildings Southeast coats across metro Atlanta.
Offices, lobbies, corridors, break rooms, and tenant suites recoated with low-odor systems, phased after hours so your teams keep working through the job.
Interior Painting →
Tilt-wall, block, stucco, EIFS, and metal facades sealed against Georgia heat, storms, and UV — the coat that protects the structure and fronts your brand.
Exterior Painting →
When the walls get repainted, the floors often need it too. We handle epoxy and resinous floor systems so wall coatings and floor coatings land on one schedule.
Epoxy Flooring →Interior structural steel, deck, block walls, and dock areas coated in high-traffic, high-durability systems that stand up to forklifts, racking, and constant movement.
Clean, precise finishes for corporate offices, medical suites, and professional buildings — done in phases so tenants and staff are never locked out of their space.
Elevated exterior and interior work using rigging, lifts, and swing-stage access under OSHA fall-protection protocols on tall commercial buildings.
Plant walls, structural steel, mezzanines, and equipment surfaces coated with specification-grade primers and industrial finishes built for demanding environments.
Storefronts, shopping centers, and mixed-use buildings kept sharp and on-brand, with work sequenced around customer hours and tenant leases.
Power washing, scraping, patching, rust and mildew treatment, priming, and abrasive blasting — the preparation that decides how long the finish coat actually lasts.
A commercial repaint is a risk decision as much as a color decision. Here's what a facility manager gets when the contractor is Southeast.
Nights, weekends, phased zones, and low-odor systems keep your building open and your people working while the job gets done.
We measure surfaces, spec the coating system, and put it in writing — so you can vet contractors on the same terms instead of guessing.
Multi-million-dollar insured, bonded, and licensed in Georgia, with crews trained on height, containment, and jobsite safety.
30+ years of Atlanta commercial work — and painting bundles cleanly with flooring, lighting, and repairs under one accountable team.
A repeatable, five-step process that turns a repaint from an open-ended headache into a scheduled, documented job you can hand off with confidence.
We meet you at the building, look at every surface in scope, note substrate condition, access, and operational constraints firsthand.
You get a measured, itemized proposal that names the coating systems and spells out exactly what's included — nothing hidden in "and more."
Before color goes up we wash, repair, mask, and contain — safeguarding your floors, fixtures, inventory, and equipment.
Crews apply primer and finish coats to specification, in the phases we agreed on, keeping your building open and traffic flowing.
We walk the finished job with you, work a punch-list to sign-off, and leave the site clean before we consider it complete.
A real commercial proposal is a document, not a dollar figure. When you compare bids, these are the six things that separate a professional scope from a number scribbled on a business card.
We measure the actual surface area in scope — wall square footage, linear feet of trim and steel, ceiling and deck area — and build the proposal off those numbers. Measured quantities are what let you compare one bidder to another instead of guessing whose "whole building" means the same thing. It also stops the mid-job surprise where a vague estimate suddenly grows once the crew is on site.
The proposal states exactly how each substrate gets readied: pressure washing, scraping and sanding, patching and caulking, rust and mildew treatment, and spot or full priming. On industrial steel that can escalate to abrasive blasting and a specification-grade primer. Prep is where a coating's lifespan is won or lost, so it's spelled out here rather than assumed.
We name the product line, the number of coats, the dry-film thickness, and the sheen for each surface. Naming the system does two things: it holds us to a defined standard, and it keeps the manufacturer's warranty intact because the material is being installed the way its data sheet requires.
The scope details how we shield everything that isn't getting painted — floor and fixture coverings, plastic containment, tenant belongings, machinery, and product. On occupied jobs it also covers dust and overspray control so adjacent operations aren't disrupted. This is the line item that protects you from a cleanup dispute later.
We map the work to your calendar: which zones get painted in what order, what happens during business hours versus off-peak windows, and how long each phase takes. A phased plan is the difference between a repaint that quietly happens around your operation and one that shuts down a wing you needed open.
The scope defines how the job ends: a final walkthrough, a documented punch-list, touch-ups to sign-off, site cleanup, and any warranty paperwork or maintenance guidance you're owed. A defined closeout means the project has a clear finish line everyone agrees on — not a crew that drifts off before the last details are handled.
Most of the buildings we coat can't simply close for a paint job — staff still report, tenants still operate, and product still moves. So we plan the work around your operation rather than through it. We sequence the job zone by zone, painting one area to completion and moving on before it affects the next, so the parts of the building you need stay usable throughout.
Our office hours run Monday through Friday, and we phase and schedule the work to fit the rhythm of your facility — concentrating disruptive tasks in your lowest-traffic windows and keeping active corridors, exits, and equipment clear. Low-odor, low-VOC coating systems let interiors stay occupied, and containment and dust control keep overspray off the work still happening around us.
Every crew follows OSHA practices for fall protection, ladder and lift safety, and containment, so the job stays safe for your people as well as ours. The goal is simple: you get a freshly coated building, and your operation barely notices the crew was there.
From two Atlanta-area offices, Southeast Commercial Services paints commercial and industrial buildings throughout Fulton, DeKalb, Gwinnett, Cobb, and Cherokee counties — from Midtown high-rises to Gwinnett distribution centers.
Planning a repaint? Tell us the building type, rough square footage, and your timing, and we'll schedule a walkthrough and return a written scope you can act on.
Working from offices in Atlanta and Decatur, our crews reach commercial and industrial sites across the region's major corridors and surrounding counties.
We follow the metro's freight and office arteries — the I-75, I-285, and I-85 corridors — to reach warehouses, plants, and business parks throughout the region. Coverage spans Fulton, Cobb, Gwinnett, DeKalb, and Cherokee counties, from intown high-rises to the distribution belts on the perimeter.
If your building sits inside the greater Atlanta area, we can most likely walk it. Not sure whether you're in range? Call (404) 924-7071 and we'll confirm coverage and set a walkthrough.
Every building type carries its own coatings, access, and scheduling demands. These are the commercial and industrial properties we're built to handle.
Corporate offices, professional suites, and Class-A towers finished to a tenant-ready standard.
Structural steel, deck, and block coated to survive forklifts, racking, and constant throughput.
Plant walls, mezzanines, and equipment coated with specification-grade industrial systems.
Clinics and medical buildings recoated with low-odor systems and infection-aware sequencing.
Storefronts and centers kept on-brand, with work timed around customer hours and leases.
Apartment communities and common areas repainted at portfolio scale for owners and managers.
Elevated interior and exterior work using lifts and swing-stage access under fall-protection protocols.
Municipal, education, and institutional facilities coated to spec and to compliance requirements.
A commercial coating is an investment in an asset you have to answer for. We stand behind the labor and install to protect the products that stand behind the finish.
Our labor is warranted against defects in application — peeling, blistering, or failures that trace back to how the coating was installed rather than how the building is used.
Because we install to the manufacturer's specification, the coating carries its own product warranty. Installing to spec is exactly what keeps that coverage valid.
We'll tell you honestly what a given system should deliver on your surfaces and environment — so your maintenance budget is planned on real service life, not a sales number.
Commercial and industrial painting is the professional coating of business and manufacturing buildings — offices, warehouses, high-rises, retail, and plants — including surface prep, primer, and finish systems built to survive heavy use. In Atlanta, it's provided by Southeast Commercial Services, a licensed, insured contractor working commercial and industrial only.
Unlike residential painting, commercial work is planned around your operating hours, spec'd for the substrate and traffic each surface takes, and executed by crews trained on OSHA height and containment rules. Southeast has coated Atlanta facilities for over 30 years and schedules projects to keep your building open while the work gets done.
Straight answers to what Atlanta facility managers ask before signing a painting contractor.
We phase the work around your operating hours. Crews can run early mornings, evenings, or weekends, section off active zones, and use low-odor coating systems so staff and tenants stay in the building. Before a brush is opened, we agree on a sequence that keeps your exits, equipment, and foot traffic clear.
Offices, medical and professional buildings, retail and mixed-use centers, warehouses and distribution facilities, high-rises, manufacturing plants, and municipal and institutional properties across metro Atlanta. We work commercial and industrial only — no residential.
Pricing depends on square footage, substrate condition, coating system, height and access, and how much of the work has to happen after hours. Rather than quote a rate blind, we walk the site, measure the surfaces, and return a written scope so you can compare contractors on equal terms. Call (404) 924-7071 to schedule a walkthrough.
Preparation is most of the job. We pressure-wash, scrape, sand, patch, treat rust and mildew, prime bare substrate, and mask off everything that isn't getting coated. On industrial surfaces that can include abrasive blasting and specification-grade primers before the finish coat goes on — because prep, not paint, is what decides how long a commercial finish lasts.
Yes. Southeast Commercial Services of Georgia LLC is licensed, bonded, and carries multi-million-dollar insurance. We can provide a certificate of insurance naming your property or management company before work begins, and our crews follow OSHA requirements on height, containment, and site safety.
Yes. Painting is one line in a full commercial facility program. The same team can handle epoxy and floor coatings, concrete polishing, lighting, and general repairs — so a repaint and a floor refinish can be scheduled together under one contract and one point of contact.
Tell us the building type, rough square footage, and your timing. A Southeast Commercial Services team member will follow up to schedule a walkthrough — typically within the hour, Monday–Friday.
