Why Design Builders Trusts Frisco Woodline Coatings
Paint is paint. Right? Nope! When it comes to exterior-grade paint used in outdoor living spaces, there are lots of important differences. Those differences equate to varying quality levels, durability, aesthetics, and price points. Because it’s so important to get this right, Design Builders leans on the quality and expertise of Frisco Woodline and their paint offerings.
What Makes Frisco Woodline’s Paint Different?
Frisco Woodline offers expertise in both interior and exterior paint. When they use the exterior paint in particular, it’s not a product you could simply walk into Sherwin-Williams and obtain. It’s a very specific, high-quality exterior-rated paint that comes with a fifteen-year warranty on the coating.
This paint is:
- Not readily available to just anyone.
- Compatible with industrial coatings.
- Water based and environmentally friendly.
- Able to be applied to everything from wood board to PVC trim.
- Capable of achieving true black through a special tint system.
This isn’t something that’s stocked or available for standard retail. It’s obtained by businesses, like Frisco Woodline.
Not all paint is created equal, and it’s more important than most homeowners realize to have painters who are extremely educated about substrates, paint, and the entire painting process. Using the wrong paint can lead to premature paint failure and a massive (needless) expense for the homeowner.
What Can Frisco Woodline Do with Paint?
Frisco Woodline is equipped to spray numerous coatings:
- Prime
- Stain
- Top coat
- Clear coat
- PVC coatings
- Metal coatings
- Industrial finishes
They can spray anything that falls within certain dimensions (up to four inches thick by fifty-two inches wide).
The substrates they can paint are nearly limitless, from wood and composites to tile and PVC.
They’re also able to accommodate any color, including color-matching to specific objects.
How the Frisco Woodline Paint Process Is Different
Traditionally, pieces like trim are primed and then installed. A painter will then come in and finish with the color coat.
With Frisco Woodline, they eliminate that entire piece of the puzzle. All priming and finishing are done in house, leaving a ready-to-install product for Design Builders to simply nail in.
That means:
- No bringing in and paying a subcontractor or third-party painter.
- No managing that subcontractor, who could be less invested in the project or customer than the design and build team.
- No having to clean messy, sloppy, or even damaging paint drips off flagstone patios, outdoor furniture, or anything else.
By offering this premium prefinished service, it actually reduces overhead and ends up cutting some costs on the homeowner side. Eliminating the need for a subcontractor can result in savings of anywhere from twenty-five to forty-five cents per linear foot. Those are savings that can get passed on to the homeowner.
(That’s also to say nothing of the potential costs of hiring a subcontractor who uses subpar paint that’s not adequate or fit for exterior use!)
Why Northern Virginia or Maryland Homeowners Want the Frisco Woodline Paint Job
When Design Builders chooses Frisco Woodline to handle the paint work in a client’s outdoor living space, this passes on numerous benefits to that customer:
- Protected warranty. Using the wrong kind of exterior paint can actually void warranties on some products, such as AZEK Paint Pro. Going with a company that’s knowledgeable and committed to the right product can keep your warranty intact and give you additional peace of mind.
- Quicker product turnaround. With the Frisco Woodline drying system, a substrate enters the infrared drying machine, and just six and a half minutes later it’s ready to install. This leads to fewer hang-ups, delays, and reschedules for homeowners.
- Can’t-beat quality (and ROI). The expertise of the company. The best-in-class machinery. The high-quality materials. All of it contributes to the homeowner receiving a product that’s incredibly durable, beautiful, and capable of withstanding the elements. Over the lifetime of the product, this leads to better value and return on investment.
- Fewer failure concerns. Using the Frisco Woodline system and machinery, homeowners simply aren’t dealing with bubbling, scaling, or other paint failure issues. Moisture is the biggest contributor to paint failure or lack of adhesion, and the Frisco Woodline’s machinery catches and eliminates that moisture through infrared drying.
