Affiliating with Bomanite has opened many doors and provided great opportunities, says McCool, who joined the Bomanite team 18 years ago. He is especially appreciative of Bomanite’s national account program, where the company contracts with big commercial clients who need work done in many states. As a Bomanite franchisee, he is the contractor of choice for these accounts. “The big national accounts don’t want to deal with every Tom, Dick and Harry in each town,” he says. If Bomanite has an account with a big retail or fast-food chain, the company will hold a training session for all the contractors from different states so they can learn the look that is desired and exactly how to achieve it. “That way, there’s no learning curve on the job,” McCool says. Bomanite stands apart, says Matt Casto, vice president of business development for Bomanite, because the company both sells products and controls their installation. This is a huge plus for architects and engineers who are concerned about the end result. “An architect can tap into trained experts,” he says.
John Williams, an architect with SDA Partnership in Irvine, Calif., agrees that Bomanite has been great to work with on a recent project that has multiple locations around the country. He likes the range of stamps and colors that Bomanite offers, he says, but he is especially happy with the attention that is paid to quality and detail. “Bomanite always follows through with the general contractor,” he says, “and makes sure the specifications are followed. They’ve been really helpful.”
