"Let me start off by saying this was the best experience that my husband and I had with a business since we have started working on our home projects! I am glad to say when I see a smile on my husband face, just after the first window was put in, letâ s s just say I knew I had the right business with the right people. I cannot begin to brag about the process of my project from start to finish enough! First I met Josh who was kind and considerate and took his time explaining the process of windows and the different ways I could have them done! On time and not in a hurry, letâ s just say I was pleased that he did not rush the process. Then I met another man by the name of Bill, I was actually surprised that the owner takes the time to come out and make sure all the measurements are corrected and made sure I knew what I was getting and if that was what I was expecting! Service is all I can sayð Lynda who is the receptionist who always and I mean always had a smile in here voice know matter what was going on, is a nice way to wake up to saying your materials are here and letâ s get it done! My heroes though at the end of the day weâ re definitely hands down, Mike and Troy! These two men are amazing I mean really amazing! They are kind in every way and let just say they know how to rock those windows!ð , Mike and Troy are always welcome back to my home anytime if it is a job they are doing or just simply passing through to say hello. They made the end of this process absolutely flawless. Anyone can put a smile on my husband face just after putting in one window is a winner in my book anytime. Mike and Troy work ethic is unbelievable, I have not seen anyone take pride in what they do in such a long time it made my heart melt letâ s just say I love them to the moon and back! Just let me say this, if you are looking for a place of business that has the full package for all your home projects you need to be calling Minnesota First choice hands ð down! Thanks to all of you for caring for us like we were family, instead of just seeing us as a customer with just an order. We will definitely use you again for an update home projects hands down!"

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.

While bleach can be effective in killing mold, it may not fully remove mold stains from siding. Additionally, bleach can be harsh and may damage certain types of siding. It's recommended to use specialized mold cleaners or natural alternatives that are safe for your specific siding material as a part of your regular siding maintenance

Signs that you need to replace your siding include siding that’s warping, bubbling, or cracking; signs of rot or mold growth; fading, peeling, or chipped siding or paint; or siding that’s separating from the exterior of your house. Failing to replace your siding when it’s damaged can lead to moisture problems or structural damage, so promptly repair or replace siding as soon as you notice any of these signs.

Clapboard siding is traditionally made of wood, and is one of the most common types of wood siding in North America. When people talk about wood siding, they are usually talking about clapboard siding. However, not all wood siding is in the clapboard style: It can be tongue-and-groove, shake, and other designs. Also, clapboard siding can sometimes be made of different materials, like vinyl or fiber cement, so the terms are not interchangeable.

Professional installers typically recommend caulking between siding boards, but it depends on the material. With Hardie board and fiber cement siding, manufacturers don't recommend adding caulk because it can trap moisture in the joints or discourage flexibility in fluctuating temperatures. Consult your local siding contractor about caulking best practices before adding any to your home’s exterior.
