The Problem: A One-Month Build With Trades Stacked on Top of Each Other
The schedule left no slack. Overlapping subcontractor work created constant access conflicts, and walls McSweeney had already finished were damaged repeatedly as other trades moved through the space.
In a restaurant, finish damage lands exactly where guests sit and where staff clean every day. The finished surfaces had to hold up through construction, not only after it.

The Solution: Specialty Finishes Applied to Spec and a Crew That Stayed Engaged
Pre-Catalyzed Epoxy in the Kitchen, Restrooms, Bar, and Dining Areas
Pre-catalyzed epoxy delivers a durable, cleanable wall finish only when it is specified and applied correctly. McSweeney controlled the variables that decide performance: substrate preparation, compatible primers, measured coverage, and product-specific recoat and cure times.
Textured Architectural Wallcoverings at Dining-Area Features
McSweeney installed textured wallcoverings on prominent dining-area walls, columns, and architectural transitions. Precise layout, surface readiness, seam alignment, and clean detailing at corners and niches kept the finished interior consistent from every angle.
Coordination With the General Contractor and Every Trade on Site
The team coordinated closely with the general contractor and the other trades, kept an active presence on site, and worked overtime and weekends to keep progress moving. As construction continued, the crew returned to repair and repaint affected surfaces rather than leaving touch-ups for the punch list.
Planning a restaurant build or remodel on a tight opening date? McSweeney can walk through your finish schedule before the first trade arrives.
The Result: Finished Through Completion, With a Relationship That Continued
McSweeney carried the Tacos & Avocado project through its final stages, addressing finish damage and maintaining close coordination despite schedule pressure and overlapping trades. Project stakeholders expressed appreciation for the team’s persistence and willingness to stay engaged through completion.
A finish that gets damaged by other trades is still the painter’s responsibility to deliver. That is how McSweeney approaches every restaurant project.
What This Project Means for Your Restaurant Build or Remodel
Restaurant owners and general contractors across Dallas–Fort Worth face the same pressure on every restaurant painting project: a fixed opening date, crowded jobsites, and finishes that have to perform from day one.
The approach holds whether the space is a new build-out or a remodel. Plan the finish sequence around the other trades, specify coatings for how each room is used, and stay on site until the last surface is right.
Tell us your opening date and scope, and we will build a finish plan around it.
