Newark, Delaware Dec 19, 2025 (Issuewire.com) - Mike Purvis, founder of Storage Facility Painting Services, LLC, is using his recent interview feature to raise awareness around an issue he believes is holding many commercial projects back: poor planning and a lack of specialisation in facility maintenance work.
With more than three decades in the painting industry and a national business focused solely on storage facilities, Purvis argues that many problems in commercial repainting are not technical, but operational.
“Most issues don’t come from the paint,” Purvis said in the interview. “They come from weak planning, rushed schedules, and people trying to do work they’re not set up to handle.”
According to industry data, the U.S. self-storage market now includes more than 50,000 facilities, with continued growth driven by urbanisation and consumer mobility. Rebranding and repainting are increasingly common as operators compete for visibility and tenant trust. Yet project overruns and inconsistent quality remain frequent complaints.
Purvis believes specialisation is key. “When you focus on one asset type, you learn how it really works,” he said. “You stop guessing. You plan better. That’s when quality and speed can exist together.”
He also stresses the role of logistics. Multi-site projects often fail due to missed deliveries, poor sequencing, or unclear communication. “Speed doesn’t come from rushing,” Purvis noted. “It comes from preparation.”
The interview highlights his broader message to contractors and operators alike: raise expectations. Invest time in planning. Learn from proven methods. Improve systems instead of blaming people.
“This industry doesn’t need shortcuts,” Purvis said. “It needs discipline.”
Call to Action
Purvis encourages facility owners, managers, and service providers to take simple steps on their own:
- Ask clearer questions about planning and timelines
- Document processes that work and refine them
- Choose partners with proven experience in your specific asset type
“Better outcomes start with better decisions,” he said. “Anyone can do that.”
