Case Study: Exterior Painting Project for Brewery in Stevens Point, WI

Project Overview

Type of Case Study: Commercial
Location: Stevens Point, WI
Timeframe: Spring 2024
Duration: Two weeks

Project Details

Initial Condition: The brewery’s exterior needed a fresh coat of paint to enhance its appearance and ensure durability against the elements. One of the key features requiring attention was the brewery’s name, prominently displayed on a third-floor wall, which was only accessible from the rooftop.

Project Involvement: The project encompassed the exterior painting of the brewery, including walls, lettering, and grain silos. The work demanded precision and expertise to achieve a professional finish, especially given the height and tight working conditions.

Challenges and Solutions

Accessing Third-Floor Walls: One of the primary challenges was accessing and painting the third-floor wall, which was only reachable from the rooftop. Our team used specialized equipment and techniques to safely and effectively complete this task.

Painting Grain Silos: Painting the grain silos posed unique challenges due to their proximity to each other and the building. Additionally, the silos had ladder cages that required extensive masking. We carefully timed our work between grain deliveries to minimize disruption.

Tight Quarters: Most of the work was conducted from a lift in tight quarters, necessitating careful maneuvering and coordination to ensure a high-quality finish without compromising safety.

Special Equipment and Techniques

The project required the use of lifts, extensive masking materials, and precise timing to navigate the constraints posed by the brewery’s layout and operational schedule. Our team utilized these resources to deliver a seamless and visually striking result.

Conclusion

This commercial painting project by CertaPro Painters of East Central Wisconsin exemplifies our commitment to excellence, even in challenging environments. The refreshed exterior of the Stevens Point brewery now stands as a testament to our team’s skill and dedication, contributing to the brewery’s inviting and professional appearance.
