Services
Since 1969, McAllister Painting has handled the finish scope of commercial and industrial buildings across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee: floor coatings, painting, protective coatings, ceilings, drywall, metal stud framing, specialty finishes and exterior protection. Fewer subs to coordinate, one crew that knows how each trade affects the next.
Overview
General contractors bring McAllister in for Division 9 finishes on new construction and tenant build-outs. Facility managers, school districts and property owners call us directly for repaints, floor coatings, protective coatings and exterior work on buildings that are already occupied.
Either way the approach is the same. We look at the building and the specification, agree how the work fits around your operations, prepare the surfaces properly, apply the system the job calls for, and check each stage before the next one starts. The eight services below cover everything between the slab and the roof deck.

01 · Featured service
Warehouses, production floors, schools, showrooms and offices across the Southeast run on floors McAllister Painting has coated. Prepared properly, applied by a crew that has done this since 1969, and backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
02
Interior and exterior painting for warehouses, plants, schools, retail and office buildings across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee. McAllister works as a Division 9 subcontractor to general contractors and directly for owners and facility managers, scheduling the work around occupancy and production so the building keeps running. Since 1969.
03
Structural steel, metal panels, masonry, concrete walls, tanks, equipment and overhead structure take more abuse than a painted office wall. McAllister applies protective coating systems built for that exposure: proper preparation, the right primer and a finish selected for corrosion, wear and weather, on commercial and industrial facilities across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee.
04
Suspended acoustical ceiling grid and tile for new build-outs, replacements and repairs, plus painted exposed deck and structure where the design calls for an open ceiling. McAllister installs and finishes ceilings for offices, schools and commercial buildings across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee, coordinated with the lighting, HVAC and fire protection trades that live above them.
05
McAllister hangs, tapes and finishes drywall for offices, schools, retail spaces and tenant build-outs across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee. Because we also frame the walls and paint them, the whole interior sequence can run under one contractor, which means fewer handoffs for the general contractor and a finish that is ready for the coating going on top.
06
McAllister frames non-load-bearing interior walls, furring, soffits and bulkheads in light-gauge metal stud for offices, schools, retail and industrial buildings across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee. The framing is laid out from the drawings and checked before board goes on, because every wall, ceiling and coat of paint that follows depends on it being right.
07
Some walls in a commercial building do more than sit under a coat of flat paint. Lobbies, feature walls, retail floors and busy corridors call for textured, accent and high-durability finishes that are chosen for how they look and how they clean. McAllister applies these finishes for owners, GCs and facility managers across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee.
08
The exterior of a commercial building takes sun, rain and humidity every day of the year. McAllister prepares and paints masonry, block, stucco, metal panel and tilt-up exteriors, seals the joints and penetrations where water gets in, and applies coatings chosen to protect the envelope, for owners and facility managers across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee.
Industries served
Each building type brings its own schedule, surfaces and specification. We have worked in all of these since 1969.
Open-plan floors, conference rooms, lobbies and corridors finished with low-disruption scheduling so tenants keep working.
Hospitals, clinics and veterans homes painted after hours and in phases, with containment where the work calls for it.
Classrooms, hallways, gyms and cafeterias repainted around the school calendar with durable, cleanable finishes.
Jails, stations and public buildings painted to specification, including pick-proof caulking by certified installers.
Storefronts, sales floors and back-of-house areas completed after hours so the doors open on time.
Floor coatings, safety striping, walls and overhead steel for facilities that cannot stop moving product.
How every project runs
Four documented stages, applied to every service. Each service page explains what the stages mean for that trade.
Site visit, drawings and specs reviewed, sequence and access agreed with you or the GC, products matched to the substrate and the use.
Protection, cleaning, repairs, profiling and priming. The part of the job that decides how long the finish lasts.
The specified system applied the way the manufacturer intends, by the method the surface and the schedule call for.
Each stage checked before the next, a final walkthrough with you, and a clean site at handover.
Related projects
Three recent McAllister projects. See the full gallery for floors, interiors, exteriors and structures.
A working industrial plant coated inside and out: dust collection units, stacks and ductwork, blue walkway coatings and yellow safety handrails, a coated warehouse floor and a new office build-out, all sequenced around production.
250,000 square feet of walls, doors and ceilings painted in 8 weeks. The project also included wallpaper removal and refinishing drywall to a level 5 finish before paint.
Built for a busy commercial space: a decorative flake resinous floor system installed for a durable finish that stands up to heavy foot traffic, abrasion and everyday wear. The integrated resinous cove base carries the floor up the wall in a seamless, rounded transition that makes cleaning easier and gives dirt and grime fewer places to collect.
Describe the building and what is wrong with it, or send the drawings. We will tell you which scopes apply and quote them together or separately.
