Q: What exactly is aluminum trim capping?
A: Aluminum trim capping is a construction method where we use a professional tool called a metal brake to custom-form durable, coated aluminum coil stock to precisely fit over your existing exterior trim. We essentially create a permanent, maintenance-free metal shell that encases vulnerable elements like your garage door frame, window trim, and fascia. This protects the underlying wood from weather and eliminates the need for future painting.
​Q: What material do you use for your projects?
A: We use a professional-grade, rust-proof aluminum trim coil. This material features a state-of-the-art, two-coat system with a rust-inhibiting primer and a durable, baked-on polyester finish. This ensures exceptional, long-term resistance to weathering, fading, and chipping here in Cache Valley.
Q: What are the benefits of capping my trim versus just painting it?
A: While fresh paint looks good temporarily, aluminum capping offers a superior long-term solution. The primary benefits are:
-
Durability: The baked-on finish is far more durable than standard house paint and is guaranteed not to chip, flake, or peel.
-
Maintenance-Free: Once capped, your trim will never need to be scraped or repainted again. Cleaning simply requires a rinse with a hose.
-
Wood Preservation: Capping provides a robust, sealed barrier that protects your home's underlying wood trim from moisture, sun, and pests, preventing rot and decay.
Q: How long will the aluminum finish last? Will the color fade?
A: The factory-applied, baked-on polyester finish is engineered for longevity and is highly resistant to UV degradation. You can expect the color to remain vibrant and the finish to protect your home for decades, far surpassing the lifespan of any traditional paint job.
Q: Can you match the color of my siding or other features?
A: Aluminum trim coil comes in a wide variety of popular siding and trim colors. During our consultation, we can provide color samples to find a perfect match or a complementary accent color for your home's existing color scheme.
Q: How long does a typical installation take?
A: For a standard residential garage door frame, the installation is typically completed within a few hours. Larger projects involving all windows and fascia will take longer.
