He did an amazing job repairing my aluminum siding. I requested server of his business cards to give to my friends and neighbors. He has a keeper. Debbie Foote"
"Hired them for minor Siding fixes. They also agreed to check all the Siding and reinstall any popped pieces. Doing that they found sections where no Tyvek/insulation had ever been installed and water was getting in. They added insulation, replaced bad wood and replaced the Siding. Since it got dirty they power washed the house and deck. Can't say enough about the careful work they did and the clear communication."
"First person came by door-to-door to see if we wanted an estimate. Our house is 2000 sq feet (3/4 siding, 1/4 brick). Second person came to give us the estimate. It took at least three hours. The first estimate was more than $19K, but if we bought it right then, it would be $12K. We finally settled on $13.5K: $12K for siding and $1.5K for window and door caps. We were told that even though our window capping looked good, it would probably tear when they took off the old siding. We were told over and over what a great company it was. We were told everything that had aluminum would be replaced with vinyl, the new siding would be "practically seamless," and we were getting a great deal. A few days later someone visited us again. We went over the project and picked out the color. On the day of the installation, the crew started removing the old siding. Another "quality assurance" person showed up at noon to go over any questions. He again told us what a great deal we got. He looked around and went up on the roof. He also noticed that there was aluminum covering on front half of the rake on north side of the house but not the back half. He said there was an issue behind the gutters at the top of the house, that moisture could get between the gutters and the house, and that the job was really going to look incomplete without new coverings for all the rake. He gave us an estimate: normally it would be $3500, but if we bought it right then, it would be $2000. We agreed to pay for covering the rake. The window wrap did not rip when the aluminum was removed. The new window wrap looks exactly like what was already on the house. There are a lot of seams; even the smallest lengths have seams. Once the job was wrapping up, the last person showed up. We told him there were a lot of seams. He said they wouldn't be noticable further away from the house. There are a couple of places where the pieces behind the gutter were not cut correctly. I expect they will be able to fix this. Bottom line? We're glad we got new siding, but with all the high-pressure sales tactics and inconsistencies in presentation, we still feel like we got ripped off."
"Wonderful service from this company, from sale to installation, I had the deteriorating siding on my townhouse replaced with CertainTeed vinyl. shaker siding. Work completed as contracted by the courteous, knowledgeable installers. Project manager, Alex Calderon, kept me abreast of work progress and followed up at the end to review the installation with him. If you have exterior work planned, consider Home Genius Exteriors. Wonderful experience, satisfying work at a reasonable price."
"After having a little problem with the contract, Heather managed to get the problems straightened out. Correct dates and materials were corrected.The crew showed up on time but then had to go get additional materials to start the job.. No project manager was on sight until latter in the afternoon..The five crew members started the job . I made a few suggestions on how I wanted the job to be done and they were very agreeable..The crew was very precise in their work..The job was to put vinyl siding on chimney to match existing siding on the house…This group of five workers did a WONDERFUL JOB…I couldn’t be happier with the work that they provided…The cleanup afterwards was like they were never there…PERFECT ….Andy the project manager did show up and was helpful,,but really didn’t stay very long…Thank you …to Heather for all she did to make this jod less stressful..Very,,Very… Pleased with the outcome of this job….And yes….i would recommend this company and this CREW for any siding job."
"Brandon removed some old siding that was going bad and replaced with new. He also removed a section of wood railing that was not in good shape and replaced with composite. He's a good guy and he knows what he's doing."
"Mr. Handyman helped me in all aspects of this large project, from measuring and ordering materials at the start to clean-up at the end. Installation of both patio doors and of garage doors went beautifully, as did replacement of front banisters and repair of old termite damage. The crews were always prompt and notified me by email that they were on their way. The were clean and courteous, and cleaned up after themselves. Mr. Handyman's Dennis Jennings, with his attention to detail, was key to this project being a great success."
"Excellent work crew. Showed up at 7 am and worked until 7 pm. Vinyl siding completed in 3 days with gutters installed the next morning. Did a complete cleanup when they left."
"Wow! From start to finish, A Clear View was fantastic to work with. We never had to have our windows cleaned before and so I went into the process not knowing much. My experience started with Carlie contacting us within hours from our search and helping to quote our project. She worked with me on pricing and understanding everything. Finally window cleaning day came and it was like Christmas. I was so excited. Jordan arrived at 7:30 AM and he worked non stop, quietly, perfectly cleaning all our windows until 5:30 PM that night. I had asked for inside, outside, screens and sills to be cleaned. He was fantastic. Our windows look absolutely amazing. He also was very attentive to my husbands work schedule and when he could clean the office windows and worked around his schedule for those windows. Meaning, he couldn’t clean those in the order he probably wanted to, but was super accommodating about it. Again, he was quiet, polite, understanding to the chaos with all our pets and lastly, never spilled a drop or any water. He had a large bucket that he would fill with hot water and his solutions and used our utility sinks for filling and dumping and there was nothing wet, spilled or splashed. Much better than anything I could have ever done. We are very please and highly recommend. And I will 100% be calling to have them come back next year around the same time! The best part…every year for Thanksgiving we gather for a mid day Thanksgiving meal with all the family. We can watch the sun set from our dining room. Every year I would say, “Well, it would be a much prettier sunset with clean windows!” My dream just came true!!!!!!! Thank you A Clear View Window Cleaning. Start to finish it was an enjoyable process."
Vines can cause severe damage to your siding. They can grow underneath and all around siding, which can cause it to pop off or split. Vines also trap moisture, which can damage siding by causing rot. The cost to replace siding may make you consider getting rid of the ivy or adding a trellis or lattice support for it to grow on instead.
Thickness is one important component of many. The thicker your siding is, the stronger it is. In addition, it is better able to withstand high winds and other extreme weather situations. A thicker siding also helps reduce noise transmission, which might be important if you live in a dense, bustling area. That said, make sure to also consider the panel architecture and projection, nailing hem design, locking mechanism, and other important elements of vinyl siding in addition to thickness.
Matching new vinyl siding to old siding can be difficult. Vinyl siding fades in the sunlight, so even after a few years, its color may differ from the original; dark-colored siding tends to fade faster than light-colored siding. Additionally, manufacturers frequently update their products and techniques, meaning older styles are often discontinued, making it hard to find an exact match for the color and design.
For the best chance at an accurate match, try to purchase the same model and color of siding that your home currently has, though fading may still cause a slight mismatch. Cleaning the original siding is a good first step to reveal its current true color. You can also consider painting your existing siding to create a better match with the new panels.

Eave repairs are comparable to other roof repair costs, averaging between $350 and $1,800, depending on the extent of the damage. Replacing eaves by themselves can be anywhere from $1500 to $5,000, depending on the roof’s square footage and the size of the damaged area, but they’re often replaced as part of a full new roof installation.
