"They were very thorough with explaining all the options and benefits between the different options for siding. Melia and Eric were very helpful and knowledgeable."
"Excellent. He squeezed us in with our very small project before he started on a big project. Destroying our old deck before installing new one, my yard looked like a war zone, had my doubts, but after the job completed, everything was perfect. Except for the deck. You couldn't even see what work was completed. Recommend him highly. Will use again..."
"We couldn’t be happier with Big Sky Builders and the work they did on our home. The mix of rock and siding completely updated the exterior, and the redesigned entry is both beautiful and safe. They also did a fantastic job refurbishing our back porch.
Communication was excellent, the price was very reasonable, the craftsmanship and dedication truly stood out. They turned our house into a home we’re proud to own.
Highly recommended!"

"Austin did a great job repairing our deck and installing the handrail really appreciate his effort. I would recommend him for that sort of work to anyone."
"Had a roof issue & called or texted a couple of roofing companies. Denton, responded in a very timely manner, came out that day, inspecting the roof, gave approx price using my spares, & a day/time (2 days) . Confirmed bid that night. Showed up on said day & time. Fast, clean at a very reasonable rate."
"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

Yes, mixing siding types will affect your home value, and in most cases, it will improve curb appeal and add to the value of your home. This is especially true if you get the benefit of the high-end appearance of brick or stone siding but save on siding costs by covering most of the exterior with more affordable vinyl or fiber cement.
Stucco siding is the most energy-efficient option on its own, but you can choose insulated vinyl, insulated metal, or insulated brick or stone facade siding that improves energy efficiency even further. These options include a layer of foam insulation under the siding to reduce heat transfer between your living space and the exterior. If you live in a particularly sunny climate, a reflective option like insulated steel or aluminum siding can maximize efficiency.
Generally speaking, the thicker the siding, the higher the quality. Thicker siding provides a stronger resistance against extreme weather conditions. Thicker siding also tends to fade more slowly under the sun. Hardie boards, a popular fiber cement siding option, is usually 5/16 inches thick. Meanwhile, masonry-finished cement siding varies from 5/8 to 5/8 inches thick.
Vinyl is the most common shingle siding due to its rigid PVC design, longevity, affordability, and ease of installation. The next most popular types of shingle siding are fiber cement, which is in the mid-range for prices, and cedar shake, which is the most expensive. Consider the upfront cost, ongoing maintenance costs, and durability in your specific climate before deciding.
Avoid toxic chemicals that can leach into nearby lawns, as well as household ingredients like vinegar that can ruin paint and sealants. Instead, look for a very light detergent or a dedicated exterior siding cleaner. In a pinch, you can use a basic dish or laundry soap, but we suggest sticking with a dedicated cleaner.
If your siding is struggling with algae or moss, which indicates moisture issues, look for an outdoor cleaner that’s specifically designed to clear moss and algae stains. This is also a sign that you need to seal your clapboard against further problems.
