Painting and coatings for universities and colleges.
Campuses have everything from lecture halls and labs to dormitories and athletic facilities, usually on a tight summer schedule. McAllister Painting prepares, paints and coats lecture halls, labs, dormitories, corridors, athletic facilities and campus exteriors, with the work scheduled around summer and between-term windows, often across several buildings at once.

What the work involves
What universities and colleges need from a painting contractor.
Work is coordinated with campus facilities staff, with multiple crews when the window is short.
Like every McAllister project, universities and colleges 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.

Education
Other education facilities.
Child Care Facilities
Child care centers need finishes that are safe, washable and bright, applied when the children are not in the building.
Locker Rooms
Locker rooms are wet, humid and hard on finishes, so the products and the preparation have to be chosen for constant moisture.
Schools
Schools are repainted around the calendar: summer break, holidays and after hours, with the building ready when students return.
