An industrial painting contractor handles all components of a paint job for larger facilities, including preparation, application, and cleanup. In most cases, he will be an independent contractor who will provide an estimate for a job and then manage the project from beginning to end. The contractor can also help your team, especially in the case of mid-level projects. Typically, an industrial painting contractor oversees a team of other people who do most of the painting work.
During the workday, a typical industrial painting contractor supervises others as they perform painting jobs in large facilities. He may or may not actually paint, but he will be in charge of the workplace and the safety of his employees. If he is working on multiple jobs at the same time, he may travel from location to location to monitor progress and give instructions. He will hire and train new employees and will likely need to run some payroll tasks. In addition, he can also spend part of his day providing estimates for new business and invoicing and collecting payments from clients with completed paint jobs.
The painting contractor will also oversee his team as its members clean and prepare surfaces in large industrial buildings. That industrial painting contractor will need to have working knowledge of pressure washing and scraping. He may need to use his experience in material preparation to sand areas of wood and use special treatments for metal, glass and plastic. Finally, the contractor is responsible for the cleanliness and order of the workplace.
After an industrial area is prepped and cleaned, the contractor supervises or performs the tasks of painting the area. Especially in larger installations, this may involve building scaffolding and other types of work structures to allow painters to reach all walls and ceilings with paint. Typically, an industrial painting contractor needs to have experience using paint sprayers and other types of equipment needed for larger areas.
Knowledge and experience for this job can vary greatly. Those playing this role will certainly need to have an extensive knowledge of paint and its properties and the ways in which it affects different surfaces. In specific industries, it may be necessary for the industrial painting contractor to have special knowledge of applying coatings and other treatments. He may also be called on for other special projects that require industry-specific knowledge and expertise, such as the resurfacing of large equipment or devices.
