Architectural finishes and coatings for industrial facilities in Louisiana
Lanehart has been in business since 1901 and was incorporated in 1974. From our office in Baton Rouge, we provide architectural finishes, floor systems, steel painting, high-performance coatings, and fireproofing for plants and industrial facilities across the state.
Talk to estimating ↗Where we work
Along the river and the coast.
Much of Louisiana’s industry sits along the Mississippi River between Baton Rouge and New Orleans and across the coastal parishes. We serve all of Louisiana, including Vermilion, Cameron, Terrebonne, and Lafourche parishes, with the same crews, planning, and safety program we bring to every project.

Services
Architectural finishes first, with the coatings plants need.
Most of our industrial work is architectural finishes in industrial facilities, alongside floor systems, steel, high-performance coatings, and fireproofing. Each scope is planned for the substrate, the exposure, and the way the facility operates.
Architectural finishes
Most of our industrial work is architectural finishes inside and outside plant facilities: offices, control buildings, laboratories, warehouses, maintenance shops, and process buildings. We plan each scope around the building’s use and the facility’s access requirements.
Floor systems
Seamless epoxy and urethane floor systems for production, warehouse, and maintenance areas, planned around access, cure time, and the schedule.
Steel
Painting for structural steel, piping, and equipment in operating facilities, scheduled around production and each site’s access requirements.
High-performance coatings
Protective coating systems selected for the substrate, the exposure, and the operating conditions. Heat, humidity, salt air, and chemical exposure make the right system and the right surface preparation especially important.
Fireproofing
Fireproofing for structural steel and plant buildings, coordinated with the other coating and finish work so the trades, access, and schedule work together.
Working in operating plants
Planned around the plant.
Industrial work happens around people, production, and equipment that keep running. That shapes how we plan every job.
Site requirements
We work within each facility’s orientation, permitting, and access requirements, and we plan the work with the owner’s and the contractor’s teams before crews mobilize.
Surface preparation
A coating system performs only as well as the surface under it. Preparation, application, and checks are planned around the specified system and the conditions on site.
Schedule
Work is sequenced around production, shutdowns, and the other trades, and we keep the site team informed on progress and manpower.
Safety on every site
Pre-task planning, orientation, and weekly toolbox meetings follow our crews to every project, wherever it is in the state.
