is rhino shield more expensive than paint?
While Rhino Shield offers impressive durability, it comes at an initial higher cost than traditional paint jobs. On average, you can expect to pay two or two and a half times the cost of a traditional paint job. But, over time, with a 25-year warranty, the life-cycle cost of Rhino Shield is much less than traditional paint, and will save you thousands of dollars over the years.
On average, for a typical, three-bedroom home with 2000 square feet of wall space, a Rhino Shield coatings system installation can range from $13,000 – $18,000, or about $6.50 – $9.00 per square foot.
Compare this to a typical $5,000 – $9,000 latex paint job that will need to be repeated every five years or so. In twenty-five years, the repainting costs for a typical latex paint job could be $25,000 to $45,000 for the same house vs. a single Rhino Shield installation.
There are a lot of variables that go into the cost of painting or coating your home. The cost variation depends on factors like:
Condition of the home’s exterior
Labor costs
Project features (multiple colors, extensive trim work, multi-story)
Size and makeup of your home
Geographic location
Extent of repair work needed before installation
LONGEVITY
One of the key reasons for Rhino Shield’s price tag is its longevity. Most water-based paints last between 5 – 7 years. Some higher-quality options might stretch to 7 – 10 years. With any paint, factors like climate and proper preparation and installation play a role.
Rhino Shield surpasses these lifespans significantly. We offer a 25-year transferable, non-prorated warranty.
It’s important to note that although the initial investment in Rhino Shield is higher, its longevity means you’ll save more in the long run. With a coating that lasts 4 – 5 times longer than traditional paint, you won’t need to repaint frequently, reducing the overall cost of maintenance.
While DIY ceramic coatings are a cost-effective alternative, they come with some trade-offs. They lack professional application and an industrial-grade product. When protecting your home, it’s essential to consider the expertise and reliability of using dedicated installers.
