MILWAUKEE WI, USA,

A church has a calendar built around services and events. Painting has to fit around them.

Key Takeaways

  • Map services and events first.
  • Account for high ceilings and lifts.
  • Protect fixtures and glass.
  • Close each phase before the next service.

Map the calendar

A church calendar has fixed points: weekly services, rehearsals, weddings, funerals and holidays. Mark them before choosing dates.

  • Weekly services and rehearsals
  • Weddings, funerals and holidays
  • Weeks with the fewest events

Consider the building

High ceilings, pews and decorative features shape the work. Lifts or scaffolding may be needed, and protection must suit the fixtures.

  • High ceilings and lift access
  • Pews, organs and fixtures to protect
  • Stained glass and historic features

Close each phase

Each phase should end with the space ready for use. Plan cleanup and a walkthrough with a trustee or facilities lead.

  • Clean the space for the next service
  • Walk it with a trustee or facilities lead
  • Plan touch-ups after the main work

Churches often have limited free dates and high ceilings. Both affect the plan. Know which weeks must stay clear and what equipment is needed to reach the work.

Historic or decorative features also need attention. Plan protection for fixtures, glass and furnishings, and agree what will not be painted.
