Where we work

Along the river and the coast.

Much of Louisiana’s industry sits along the Mississippi River between Baton Rouge and New Orleans and across the coastal parishes. We serve all of Louisiana, including Vermilion, Cameron, Terrebonne, and Lafourche parishes, with the same crews, planning, and safety program we bring to every project.

Services

Coatings for industrial facilities.

Each scope is planned for the substrate, the exposure, and the way the facility operates.

01

Industrial painting

Painting for structural steel, piping, equipment, and buildings in operating facilities, scheduled around production and each site’s access requirements.

02

High-performance coatings

Protective coating systems selected for the substrate, the exposure, and the operating conditions. Heat, humidity, salt air, and chemical exposure make the right system and the right surface preparation especially important.

03

Floor coatings

Seamless epoxy and urethane floor systems for production, warehouse, and maintenance areas, planned around access, cure time, and the schedule.

04

Plant buildings

Interior and exterior painting for offices, control buildings, laboratories, and other occupied buildings on site.

Working in operating plants

Planned around the plant.

Industrial work happens around people, production, and equipment that keep running. That shapes how we plan every job.

01

Site requirements

We work within each facility’s orientation, permitting, and access requirements, and we plan the work with the owner’s and the contractor’s teams before crews mobilize.

02

Surface preparation

A coating system performs only as well as the surface under it. Preparation, application, and checks are planned around the specified system and the conditions on site.

03

Schedule

Work is sequenced around production, shutdowns, and the other trades, and we keep the site team informed on progress and manpower.

04

Safety on every site

Pre-task planning, orientation, and weekly toolbox meetings follow our crews to every project, wherever it is in the state.
