"Getting a new roof is expensive and not to be gone into lightly so using someone trustworthy, reliable and somewhat in the ballpark cost wise is very important. After looking around and asking around we decided on Spicer Bros for our new roof last year. They were very good, roof looks great, so far no problems, cleaned up very well after themselves, price was in the ballpark of a couple other quotes we got, they are professional and you know they will get the job done.

"We recently had our home siding replaced by J.W. Tull, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. Their price was very competitive, and the quality of their work was outstanding. Joel, our project consultant, was incredibly helpful in guiding us through the design and product selection process. He helped us choose a combination of CertainTeed siding with beautiful accents in shakers, board and batten, and stonework — and the end result exceeded our expectations. Joe, our project manager, was meticulous and detail-oriented. He kept us informed throughout the entire project and was always easy to reach with any questions. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out — especially the stonework, which looks absolutely stunning. The craftsmanship and attention to detail really show. We highly recommend J.W. Tull to anyone considering new siding!"

"Ed and his son Charles were great. They sealed our asphalt driveway which looks great. While there they also resurfaced our deck, repaired damage, and stained it. Both of these projects were great. After these two projects, they were also willing to repair some tyvek and siding in the front of our house and paint our shutters. Pricing was fair, Ed and Charles were highly professional, and all of the work looks great. We would recommend them and will use them in the future for work on our house."

"Katherine, you don't even know and I certainly can’t express how amazing every person of the Callaway Construction Company has been from the first day of receiving the initial call to set up the estimate, the crew, to this message I received from you to finish business. This entire experience has been like no other and that is something to be proud of as an employee of the company and as the owner of the business. I can tell you I'm terrible at getting multiple estimates because as a business owner I believe that if you give me a price for the work requested then that is the price I shall pay for your skill, experience and your word that you are going to follow through and perform exactly as you sold it to me and I can say that Mr Callaway has exceeded in every way my expectations of being a stand up and replicable business owner. I was not present during any of the delivery of materials or construction and I had not one worry in the world because I can tell you every neighbor had given me one update after another and expressed to me everyday how amazing the entire project was going, and I could feel genuine happiness with every word they spoke through messages and phone calls. As I finally arrive in Delaware a week after construction of the new roof I’m met one by one by surrounding neighbors in excitement for me to see the roof and to hear my thoughts. I would give this business a hundred starts and that would times by 10 if the neighbors that contacted me with positive feedback would all leave a review. I highly recommend Callaway Construction for all your construction needs. Katherine is the most amazing person and a true delight to work with. This project consisted of a new roof being built over an existing flat roof. Materials included trusses, metal roofing panels, soffit, siding, etc."

Siding questions, answered by experts

Some homeowners use caulk on the edges of clapboard siding to help seal it. However, this method invites new problems. With so many gaps sealed, clapboard siding is often unable to drain properly and moisture from rain or other sources can build up inside. This can lead to rot and other issues over time. When repairing clapboards, it’s best to avoid caulking the final product. The exception is trim around windows and doors, which should be caulked to avoid moisture problems.

To maintain vinyl siding, homeowners should regularly clean it with mild soap and water, inspect for damage, and promptly repair any issues. Avoid using high-pressure washing and keep sharp objects away to prevent scratches. Check for mold or mildew and clean with a mixture of water and mild detergent. Take preventive measures to avoid fading, such as minimizing exposure to direct sunlight and using color-safe cleaning products. With proper maintenance, vinyl siding can retain its appearance for years.

Although dish soap will work to clean some of the grime off the aluminum siding, it may not kill mold and mildew as efficiently as a cleaning solution you can buy at a hardware store. If you have oily or greasy substances on the aluminum siding, rather than mold and mildew, dish soap should work extremely well.

You should consider acclimating the wood for your shou sugi ban siding for around two weeks before installation to balance its moisture content and prevent warping. That additional step will ensure your materials are prepped for installation, avoiding complex repairs down the line. Consult your siding contractor for additional installation instructions for this specialized material.

To calculate how much siding you need for exterior walls, first measure the height and width of the rectangular walls. For the triangular gable walls, measure the width and then the height from the ground to the tallest gable point.

  • For the rectangular walls, the calculation is: length x height

  • For the triangular gable walls, the calculation is: (length x height) / 2

Once you add these up, include an additional 10% to account for any wastage.
