St. Louis area contractors have many of the same concerns as painting and drywall contractors across the country. PDF acts as your link to the rest of the industry. PDF maintains membership in the Finishing Contractors Association (FCA), the Painting and Decorating Contractors of America (PDCA) and the Association of Wall and Ceiling International (AWCI).
The executive director attends the national conventions of these organizations each year in an effort to alert St. Louis contractors to emerging trends and obtain the latest industry news.
