"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

You may only need to repaint fiber cement siding every decade or so, but you should clean it every six to 12 months, depending on your local climate. First, wash with a garden hose or similar low-pressure device (not a high-pressure washer, which can damage the material) to remove dirt and any large debris. Then, gently wipe down the surface with a soft brush or cloth in a side-to-side motion, following the grain of the fiber cement.

Siding pros typically charge by the square foot when providing estimates for siding projects. They’ll take the material cost and add in an estimated labor fee, and some contractors will include an additional upcharge to account for profit, waste, and unexpected issues. Another important price factor your pro will consider is the quality of your home’s current siding, which they’ll need to remove, and your home’s sheathing. If pros have to make any additional repairs to your home’s exterior, the added labor will also influence your final siding cost.

Traditional clapboard siding, particularly with panels made from wood, is not a significant insulator on its own. However, you can keep your home cooler in summer and warmer with "insulated clapboard siding," which is a type of vinyl clapboard siding with a built-in foam insulation. Consult a local siding contractor to determine whether insulated siding is right for your home.

This is a tricky answer because how fast you work, how large your team is, and what type of siding you install will all determine your total time. One person placing bricks around an entire house can take weeks, but a team of 10 could complete the job in just a few days. Installing siding is a job that’s best done by a pro, as they are experienced and will perform solid work. A rough guideline for DIYers is to budget 15 minutes per square foot of siding.

When moisture infiltrates your siding, it can result in deterioration and decay of the sheathing, cause structural damage to your foundation, and provides an ideal breeding ground for mold. Mold growth can lead to various health-related problems, such as itchy eyes, sneezing, allergies, and asthma. Mold and dampness commonly attract a wide range of insects, so if your siding has taken any kind of water damage, it could invite some unwelcome guests.
