Multi-Building Painting Projects of Sweet Apple Village

Project Description

Sweet Apple Village in Roswell, GA recently underwent a remarkable transformation through expertly coordinated multi-building painting projects. As a trusted painting contractor for this property manager, we took on one of their largest and most intricate undertakings, revitalizing six distinct structures and a towering gazebo to unify the complex with a modern aesthetic.

A Multi-Use Complex and a Grand Gazebo

Sweet Apple Village features a diverse mix of buildings, including a daycare, restaurant, office, retail space, private school, and a 7-story gazebo.

The gazebo, a centerpiece of the complex, stood out as a defining feature. At 68 feet tall, it required specialized equipment and techniques to complete. The metal roof received three coats of protective paint, ensuring longevity under the harsh Georgia sun.

Meanwhile, the wooden beams were cleaned and treated with two coats of penetrating stain, creating a rich, dark finish that beautifully highlighted the wood grain.

Color Harmony: A Collaborative Process

Color selection was a critical part of these multi-building painting projects. Over two months, we worked with the property manager and board of directors, using digital renderings to preview proposed palettes.

Multiple revisions ensured that each building’s final color scheme harmonized with the others, highlighting architectural details like beams, lanterns, and window frames.

As our color consultant described it, “This project wasn’t just about painting; it was about creating a harmonious color symphony for every structure.”

Seamless Execution While Businesses Remained Open

Completing such a large-scale commercial painting project while businesses remained operational was no small feat. To ensure minimal disruption, we carefully coordinated our work schedule.

For example, the daycare facility had unique needs, so we adjusted by scheduling painting sessions on weekends. This allowed parents, children, and staff to continue their routines without interruptions.

Deck Restoration and Rotted Wood Replacement

Another key element of this project was addressing structural needs. Extensive deck restoration involved replacing rotted wood over hundreds of feet. These updates not only improved safety but also enhanced the overall visual appeal.

Once the repairs were completed, the decks were freshly painted, contributing to the cohesive and polished look of the complex.

Meeting Deadlines and Surpassing Expectations

Despite the complexity of the project, we successfully met the 31-day deadline, marking a milestone as the first contractor to achieve this goal for the property manager. Business owners in the complex were amazed by both the speed and quality of our work, which ensured every detail was completed to the highest standards.

From Old to Bright and Modern Space

Before

After

Before the transformation, Sweet Apple Village was a patchwork of six different colors from builder-grade paint applied nearly two decades ago. The aged and disjointed appearance was replaced with a vibrant, cohesive palette that brought unity and modernity to the complex. The brighter colors now create an inviting atmosphere, visible even from the parking lot.

Recognition and Future Opportunities

The successful completion of these multi-building painting projects didn’t go unnoticed. Local homeowners stopped by to admire the transformation, and the property owner conducted a thorough inspection, finding just 10 touch-ups—a record for a project of this scale.

This success has opened doors for future collaborations, including upcoming projects in the nearby Crabapple complex. Sweet Apple Village now stands as a testament to the expertise and dedication required for large-scale, multi-building painting projects that deliver exceptional results.
