Entertainment and Recreation
Finished between the crowds.
Entertainment and recreation venues are busy when everyone else is off work, so the painting happens overnight, in the off-season and in small contained phases. McAllister brings lift work for tall rooms, dark ceilings and accent finishes for venues, slip-resistant coatings for wet areas and durable floors for high-traffic spaces.

Facilities
Entertainment and Recreation facilities we work in.
Each facility type has its own page with the surfaces, schedule and services that apply.
Arcades
Arcades are dark, busy and full of equipment, so finishes are chosen for durability and the work is planned around the machines.
Auditoriums
Auditoriums have tall walls, ceilings and seating that need lift access and careful protection.
Basketball Courts
Gym walls, structure and court areas take balls, bodies and constant activity.
Bowling Alleys
Bowling centers mix a concourse, lanes, a bar and arcade areas, often open late.
Casinos
Casinos run around the clock, so painting happens in small, contained phases with no interruption to the floor.
Commercial Bathrooms
Public restrooms need finishes that survive humidity, cleaning chemicals and constant use.
Country Clubs
Clubhouses, pro shops, locker rooms and dining rooms call for a higher level of finish, delivered around members.
Golf Simulators
Simulator bays need dark, non-reflective finishes and durable walls that take the occasional mishit.
Movie Theaters
Theaters need dark auditoriums, bright lobbies and finishes that hide wear between cleanings.
Museums
Gallery walls are repainted constantly between exhibits and have to be flawless under gallery lighting.
Playgrounds
Playground structures, shade canopies and surrounding buildings take sun, rain and children every day.
Splash Pads
Splash pads and wet play areas need slip-resistant, water-tolerant coatings and structures that resist constant wetting.
Stadiums and Arenas
Stadiums and arenas are large structures with concourses, seating bowls, suites and back of house, painted between seasons.
How we approach it
The venue stays open. The work stays invisible.
Every venue has a quiet window, and the plan is built around it: last show to first show, off-season, or a few hours each morning. Equipment, seating and finishes are protected, containment keeps dust and odor out of the guest areas, and each zone is handed back clean before it reopens.
The product choices follow the room. Dark, flat finishes for theaters and simulator bays, washable finishes for restrooms and concourses, and coatings specified for slip resistance anywhere water is part of the fun.

Questions
Entertainment and Recreation questions.
Still have a question? The office is open Monday to Friday, 7 AM to 5 PM.
Can you work while the entertainment and recreation facility stays open?
Usually, yes. Most projects are phased or scheduled after hours so the facility keeps operating. The sequence, access and containment are agreed before the crew arrives.
Do you work for general contractors or directly for owners?
Both. McAllister bids and carries the Division 9 finish scope for general contractors, and works directly for owners and facility managers on existing buildings.
Where do you take on this work?
McAllister is based in Slocomb, Alabama and works across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee. Send the location and scope with your quote request and we will confirm whether it fits our schedule.
