About Us

Our Mission crop

Founded in 1948, G.C. Zarnas is a leading third-generation privately owned and operated specialty services contractor that performs high-quality craftsmanship supporting heavy-duty industrial and commercial projects nationally!

With over 100 years of combined experience, G.C. Zarnas operates five successful divisions sought out by general contractors and property owners who value the expertise of professional estimators, skilled project leaders, and craftspeople.  Our division leaders are committed to safety while providing high-quality solutions to maintain our clients’ structures, lower costs, and provide beauty and security… protecting their investments for years to come!

G.C. Zarnas leaders in our Industrial Cleaning and High-Performance Coatings Division have a high level of experience, skilled with various corrosion-resistant systems that enable them to recommend optimum solutions to multi-million dollar heavy-duty industrial projects, including new or maintenance programs.  Services include cleaning and surface preparation, specialty coatings, high-temperature coating applications, tank linings, and lead abatement. G.C. Zarnas is one of only a handful of applicators nationwide to be AMPP-certified in multiple disciplines including QS-1, QP-1, QP-2, and QP-8.

The need for our commercial services grew from our success in the industrial environment.  Our Commercial Painting Division specializes in the architectural needs of this market while providing cost-saving solutions for new construction or to maintain structures.  From top-quality interior and exterior painting, wallcoverings, preservation, and lead stabilization, G.C. Zarnas is the specialty services contractor of choice for commercial projects.

The G.C. Zarnas Fireproofing Division has completed many challenging projects using spray- and trowel-applied intumescent and cementitious fireproofing methods to exposed structural steel surfaces, roof and floor assemblies, columns, concrete services, and joists in both industrial and commercial environments.  We have completed many difficult projects without incurring unjustified cost overruns, differentiating us from our competitors.

Our Concrete & Masonry Repair & Restoration Division offers several services that complement our specialty coatings applications. We offer our services to containment structures, parking garages and decks, and the restoration of historical icons – all that require services such as structural strengthening, coatings and waterproofing, expansion joints, caulking and sealants, brick and stone pointing, blasting services, and more!

Even the government has called on the expertise of G.C. Zarnas to preserve its national treasures!  WIldcat-Zarnas is a robust joint venture that bring together two powerful entities that provides turnkey industrial and commercial specialty services solutions.  An SBA Service Disabled Veteran Owned Small Business, Wildcat-Zarnas provides government agencies the ability to create a seamless partnership with a highly qualified and experienced contractor, saving them both time and resources to complete their projects successfully!

Safety is our top priority as evident by our Experience Modification Rate (EMR), which falls well below the industry standard. This commitment to safety is based on caring for our employees, the clients for whom we work for, and the communities in which we operate.

Select G.C. Zarnas, a highly qualified and trusted partner for all of your specialty services needs!

“As a former competitor, I have known G.C. Zarnas to be an aggressive and competitive bidder. Because of their experience and history in many industrial market segments, they have a realistic appreciation for the actual cost of a project, and the organization to get the job done.”
