"Bob the Builder installed new siding, gutters, facia and soffits on our house, along with reusing our new gutter guards from the old gutters. The quality of materials used and workmanship was top-notch. The entire project was executed flawlessly, and the cleanup was superb! The crew was not only efficient but also incredibly polite. I wouldn’t hesitate to use Bob the Builder again for any other project in the future, and I highly recommend them to anyone in need of siding services.""

"Very well. The window was ready for installation in 4 weeks (they did put on a rush for us). The crew was on time, the installation went smooth and the crew did a good job cleaning up afterwards. The windows on either side of the bay open, and we had one issue with the right side window catching on a metal tab before it opened completely. We called Excel and they returned to evaluate and correct the problem within a week."

"Can't say enough good things about this Environmental Abatement company. Got four bids with widely varying prices and level of professionalism. This company offered a very professional contract at a fair price - not the highest or lowest. Phone and online contact was always top notch. This was a big job because the building is 45 ft tall and had a top layer of aluminum siding that had to be removed in order to get to the asbestos siding that had been installed around 1935. The job was big, dirty, difficult due to weather and size of building. They did a perfect job, removing all debris, nails, cleanup every day for five days. A special shout out to the project manager, Jimmy. He was a good communicator, supervisor, hands on participant every step of the way. Do not hesitate to hire this organization if you need siding removal."

Siding questions, answered by experts

If you buy new cedar, the process of cutting it usually roughs up the surface enough that it doesn’t require sanding. However, if you buy older cedar or you’re repurposing it from another application, it’s a good idea to sand it. This helps the stain settle into the grain, and results in a more uniform appearance.

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.

There are a few options to choose from when it comes to shingle siding, including cedar shake, vinyl, and fiber cement. You can get these shingle siding materials in different colors, shapes, and sizes, giving you plenty of room to customize. You can also combine different siding materials and patterns with shingles for a more unique curb appeal.

You cannot install clapboard siding on a bare, unprepared surface. Clapboard siding requires a clean, sturdy base made from plywood or similar materials, sometimes called backerboard. Then, it needs an underlayment or sheathing, a moisture membrane to help protect the exterior wall.

Note that sometimes clapboard siding is caulked as it’s installed for additional protection. We don’t suggest this: Caulking the siding can trap moisture inside the clapboards and lead to moisture damage over time. The siding needs some space to “breathe,” especially in rainy weather.

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.
