"Mike and his crew were fantastic. They were very flexible and accommodating of our schedule. After some unforeseen circumstances, they kept with us and added even more to the contracted project. The end result is gorgeous."
"We also hired Matt to put a new roof on our cattle shed. Five star Job. Matt has put new shingles on our house & pavers for a side walk. Excellent work!"
"I was very impressed with Sentri Homes - their customer service was excellent. They sent a subcontractor to install some vinyl laminate in my bathroom and he ended up getting glue all over the carpet in our bedroom. The sub ended up ghosting both me and Sentri, leaving me stuck with a ruined carpet. Sentri stuck with me for over a month to get the carpet replaced with the identical original and to get the vinyl job 100% completed. The carpet was a Home Depot exclusive and Sentri handled everything with them. I will be using Sentri for a much bigger renovation I have coming up soon, because I know that they will make sure everything gets done right no matter what problems come up. The vinyl looks great too."

"I would recommend Gould Structures. I also hired them to complete additional projects at the same time as the door installation. One project remains to be completed (should be done next week)."
"U's were exstreamly fast when recommending someone. Less then 5 minutes later a person from ur company called me. He was very understanding when listening to the problems I was having with my house. He said he could come over tomarro cause he was out of town at the moment and asked if that was ok with me I said sure. He was right on time. He looked around and told me exactly what was wrong, and told me he could give the roof a temparory fix but wasn't sure if it would work or how long it would last if anything. Said he would break eveything down and give us an estamate on all 3 things, a couple days later he came back and he was very polite."
To calculate how much siding you need for exterior walls, first measure the height and width of the rectangular walls. For the triangular gable walls, measure the width and then the height from the ground to the tallest gable point.
For the rectangular walls, the calculation is: length x height
For the triangular gable walls, the calculation is: (length x height) / 2
Once you add these up, include an additional 10% to account for any wastage.
Little maintenance is required beyond periodic washing with a garden hose to remove dirt. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or pressure washers that might damage the siding.
You should consider a siding replacement material that meets your expectations for budget, durability, and if you want to complete the siding project yourself. Some materials are better than others in certain climates and easier to install for beginners. If you’re unsure which material suits your home, check with a local contractor for guidance.
The lifespan of vertical siding depends on the type of material used and whether it’s properly maintained. For instance, vinyl siding can last between 20 and 30 years, while fiber cement siding can last up to 50 years. Remember that the type you choose will depend on how much maintenance it will require to prolong its longevity.
The lifespan of siding ranges from 20 to over 100 years, depending heavily on the material, climate, quality of installation, and maintenance.
Vinyl, Wood, and Aluminum: Typically last 20 to 40 years. Engineered wood may need replacement after just 20 years.
Fiber Cement: Lasts around 50 years.
Brick and Stone: These are the most durable, lasting for a century or more with proper care.
The longevity of any siding can be shortened if it's not properly maintained or if damage is not repaired promptly. Regular cleaning is vital. It's time for a replacement when you see widespread damage, signs of water intrusion, or a spike in energy costs.
