We use coastal-grade paint (elastomeric — flexible and waterproof) built to survive ocean-side homes. It's hurricane-rated — the same type required for any major work near the water. Licensed, $2M insured, 25+ years across Broward County.
Here's what most Davie homeowners don't realize: Salt air, brutal sun, and humidity destroy regular paint on Davie homes. A paint job that holds up for 8 years inland can start peeling here in just 2 to 3 years.

💡 What we learned in 25 years: The trick is the prep, not the paint. Most failed jobs we get hired to replace skipped this step.
We've worked across Davie's neighborhoods for over 25 years. Each area has its quirks:
Davie isn't a typical inland city — and painting here isn't typical either. Here's what we watch for:
In Shenandoah, equestrian-friendly, tree-lined streets. We've handled the salt-air corrosion and hurricane prep that homes here demand — coastal-grade paint and elastomeric sealants are non-negotiable for surviving 5+ years here.
In Rolling Hills, golf and tennis club, near NSU. Coastal exposure means standard exterior paint fails in 2-3 years here — we use elastomeric coatings that flex with humidity swings and resist UV at this latitude.
In Arrowhead, ranch-style, lakes, near Nova Southeastern. Most exterior failures we see in this area trace to one root cause: contractors who skipped surface prep for salt deposits. We power-rinse, neutralize, then prime — extra day, decade longer paint life.
South Florida runs at 60-80% relative humidity year-round, with hurricane season (June through November) bringing wind-driven rain that finds every weak point in exterior coatings. Salt air from the coast accelerates oxidation on metal trim and chalking on older paint. On the ground, two patterns drive material choice: 13.6% mobile homes/trailers — different permitting requirements; and equestrian-zoned properties have specific setback and land-use rules.
Most exterior failures we see in this area trace to one root cause: contractors who skipped surface prep for salt deposits. We power-rinse, neutralize, then prime — extra day, decade longer paint life. That's why a exterior painting job here that lasts 5+ years requires materials and prep that wouldn't be necessary 200 miles inland — and why most failed jobs we get hired to redo are the result of contractors who treated this like a normal market.
💡 The honest truth: If someone quotes you a price without visiting the property first — walk away. Every Davie job is different. Flood zones, HOA rules, building code, and material choices all change the scope. We always come look before we quote.

The exterior painting process in Davie begins with an initial inspection to assess the surface condition and identify necessary repairs. Next, the preparation phase includes cleaning, sanding, and priming surfaces to ensure paint adhesion. After preparation, painters apply the chosen exterior paint in multiple coats. Lastly, a thorough cleanup and final inspection complete the project to guarantee quality and durability.
An exterior painting project in Davie typically progresses through several phases: starting with an assessment and planning phase, followed by surface preparation and minor repairs. Then, the painting phase includes applying primer and paint layers. Finally, the project concludes with drying, inspection, and cleanup. Weather conditions and scope can affect the duration of each phase.
Contractors performing exterior painting in Davie must comply with local building codes, including adherence to Florida’s wind resistance requirements for paint and coatings, especially due to the area's susceptibility to high winds. Additionally, proper disposal of paint materials and environmental guidelines must be observed to meet city and state regulations.
