Entertainment and Recreation · Splash Pads

Painting and coatings for splash pads.

Splash pads and wet play areas need slip-resistant, water-tolerant coatings and structures that resist constant wetting. McAllister Painting prepares, paints and coats pad surfaces, play features, pump rooms and surrounding walls, with the work scheduled around off-season when the water is off.

What the work involves

What splash pads need from a painting contractor.

Slip resistance is specified and tested, and pump rooms get chemical-resistant coatings.

Like every McAllister project, splash pads work runs through planning, preparation, application and quality control. The planning stage settles access, hours, containment and products with you or the general contractor. Preparation is matched to each substrate so the finish has something sound to hold on to. Application follows the product data sheet and the specification, and every area is checked before it is handed back.

McAllister works as a subcontractor to general contractors on new construction and build-outs, and directly for owners and facility managers on buildings that are already in use, across Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Mississippi and Tennessee.

Entertainment and Recreation overview
  • 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.

  • Gymnasium in Kinston, Alabama, with painted walls and a coated court floor

    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 restroom with painted walls and tiled 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.

  • Cinema exterior with painted red and blue facade

    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.
