Scranton PA Commercial & Industrial Painting

 

RSP Painting is proud to be the premier commercial and industrial painting contractor serving Scranton, Wilkes-Barre, and the entire Lackawanna and Luzerne County regions. Scranton’s unique blend of beautiful historic downtown architecture, booming modern retail centers, and massive industrial logistics hubs requires a painting contractor with serious versatility.

As one of the largest and most capable commercial painting companies in the United States, generating over $8 million annually, we have the specialized equipment and 30+ full-time employees to tackle Northeast PA’s most demanding projects. But what truly sets us apart in Scranton is our philosophy: National Reach, Hometown Care.

Whether you need us to gently restore the facade of a historic brick storefront on Wyoming Avenue, apply high-performance epoxy to a sprawling warehouse floor in the Valley View Business Park, or simply repaint a local family restaurant overnight, no project is too small, and no facility is too large. We are the “Friendly Giants” of the painting industry—big enough to handle anything, but local enough to care about every detail.

  • Occupied Office Painting: We safely move your office furniture, paint your lobbies using Zero-VOC (odorless) paints, and put everything back before your employees arrive.

Defending Against the Northeast PA Climate

Scranton winters are notoriously harsh on commercial buildings. RSP uses industrial chemistry to fight the NEPA elements:

  1. Brutal Winters & Deep Freezes: Sub-zero temperatures and heavy snow cause extreme freeze-thaw cycles. We apply high-build Elastomeric Waterproofing that stretches with your building’s masonry to bridge hairline cracks and lock out ice and water.

  2. Road Salt Damage: Salt from winter plowing destroys parking lot light poles and lower facades. We apply extreme-duty epoxies and urethanes to the bases of your metal assets to armor them against chemical corrosion.

Service Areas: Proudly Serving Greater Scranton

We cover the entire NEPA region, including:

  • Scranton, Dunmore, Dickson City, Clarks Summit, Taylor, Moosic, Old Forge.

  • Wilkes-Barre, Pittston, Kingston, Hazleton, and the surrounding business parks.

Frequently Asked Questions (Scranton Commercial Painting)

Q: We have a small standalone retail shop in downtown Scranton. Will you take a job that size? A: Yes! We love our small business clients in NEPA. While we have the size to paint massive industrial plants in the local business parks, we take equal pride in making a local boutique look incredible.

Q: Can you work around our busy retail hours? A: Yes. We specialize in 3rd-shift (overnight) work. We can arrive after you close, paint using odorless paints, and have the space clean and ready for your morning rush.

Q: Can you fix the peeling paint on our old brick building without ruining the brick? A: Absolutely. We use restorative preparation methods for historic masonry. We avoid aggressive sandblasting on soft brick, opting instead for gentle cleaning and the application of highly breathable coatings that protect the building without trapping moisture.
