"Very well. Environmental Services were very professional. I was satisfied with their work and would recommend them to others looking to have this type of work done."

"Can not at this time still waiting to get my deck build. I paid them half 5 weeks ago they told me it could take them up to 13 weeks to get back to me to work on my deck. They are booked that far out."
"Eric came out and power washed my deck, and it look brand new. He did a great job and I am having him to come back and fix some siding on the house for me."
"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."

Dents, rust, loose panels, and weather-related damage are common problems requiring repair.
Steel and aluminum are two types of metal siding that are commonly used for residential and commercial buildings, but the materials have specific differences. Typically, steel is heavier and sturdier, fending off scratches and dents, while aluminum is lightweight and more prone to damage. Cost is another differentiating factor, as steel is more expensive than aluminum siding cost.
Different types of siding provide unique aesthetic and structural features, with each material commanding its own cost. Availability of materials and shipping costs also factors largely into the cost.
The common types of siding materials include:
Stucco: $7–$9 per square foot
Wood: $1–$15 per square foot
Engineered wood: $1–$6 per square foot
Aluminum: $3–$6 per square foot
Fiber cement: $5–$14 per square foot
Brick: $10–$20 per square foot
Brick veneer: $3–$10 per square foot
Stone: $7–$30 per square foot
Stone veneer: $5–$11 per square foot
Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.
The clapboard exposure, also called the reveal, refers to the amount of clapboard visible in the siding. Clapboards always overlap slightly, but some overlap more than others. The exposure is the vertical measurement of the board that remains visible as the clapboard is installed.
When repairing clapboard siding, it’s important that you match the exposure of your current clapboards. You may want to take a measurement of the specific exposure on your siding for reference in repairs.
