"The crew we had working on our house was amazing!! We didn’t know what we would uncover when we decided to replace our siding, soffit and gutters. This team took care of all of it and left us knowing that everything was done correctly. We would highly recommend All Craft for any of your home improvement needs, they’re top notch!"

"We liked that they worked with out insurance company to get the most bang for our buck. Workers were very friendly. They took the time to make sure the house looked just the way it should. It looked way better than the last time we sided it."

"Troy and Mike installed a replacement fence on two sides of our backyard. They did an excellent job especially considering the cold temps and semi-frozen ground. The fence looks great and we hope to have them back next year to do the third side! Thanks for the great work guys!"

"It could not have gone better.  Tom Burke is a man of his word.  He is exceptionally knowledgeable about  cast block work and retaining wall construction.  And he is a remarkably good, on-site designer.   Among other welcome design features he suggested is a curved section of the new wall to replace a dog-leg section of the old wall, which markedly improved the aesthetics of the wall.   I would say he and his crew worked like dogs, but I have never seen a dog who was willing to work as hard,  fast and amiably as they did, often putting in 12 hour days.  Tom and Nick, his right-hand man, were meticulous and exacting in their layout, base preparation, alignment and execution.  Andrew, who assisted, tirelessly supplied muscle and supplies to keep the work flowing smoothly.  It was a genuine team effort, the likes of which we have rarely seen.  We had the need for an exact start date, and the whole crew was here on the agreed-upon morning and went to work immediately.  Perhaps the most impressive thing about having them here, beyond the exceptional quality of the finished product, is the way the crew worked together.  They all went about their business very professionally, without commotion, without any shouting and without wasted motion.  Although there were a couple of setbacks because of tree roots, they worked around them, and Tom never suggested a change in price because of the extra work required.  In summary, we were completely satisfied with the price, the execution and the finished product.  We will always use ACT Landscaping for this type of work in the future, and  we recommend that anyone reading this review do the same."

Siding questions, answered by experts

Look and feel for signs of damage after a hail storm. On vinyl siding, there will likely be cracks or holes. If you have steel or aluminum siding, look for dents and cracked or chipped paint. For wood and fiber cement boards, dents are the most common sign of hail damage.

You should install your cedar shake siding with the rough side exposed. The smooth side is less resistant to weathering over the years, and the rough side gives your home a more rugged aesthetic. The rough side also takes to paint better and ensures any paint job will last longer before needing to be redone.

Avoid toxic chemicals that can leach into nearby lawns, as well as household ingredients like vinegar that can ruin paint and sealants. Instead, look for a very light detergent or a dedicated exterior siding cleaner. In a pinch, you can use a basic dish or laundry soap, but we suggest sticking with a dedicated cleaner.

If your siding is struggling with algae or moss, which indicates moisture issues, look for an outdoor cleaner that’s specifically designed to clear moss and algae stains. This is also a sign that you need to seal your clapboard against further problems.

You should restain or refinish your home's cedar siding every three to seven years to maintain its appearance and ensure maximum protection. The precise frequency depends on several factors, including your local climate, the siding's exposure to severe weather like direct sunlight, rain, and wind, the quality of the initial stain application, the type of stain used, and the condition of the wood.

Homeowners in harsh climates with high humidity and significant direct sunlight should plan on restaining every three years, while those in milder locations can wait up to seven years. For the longest-lasting protection in particularly harsh environments, consider using an opaque stain.

If you're looking for a lower-maintenance alternative, vinyl or aluminum siding are options to consider. Although their installation cost may be higher, they don't require as much upkeep over time, which can provide more value, especially in areas with excessive rainfall or high humidity.

You should consider acclimating the wood for your shou sugi ban siding for around two weeks before installation to balance its moisture content and prevent warping. That additional step will ensure your materials are prepped for installation, avoiding complex repairs down the line. Consult your siding contractor for additional installation instructions for this specialized material.
