"My husband is no longer able to do the maintenance on our house, or advise me. There was rotting trim wood, that needed to be replaced, at the roofline of our house. I contacted Angie on a Sunday nite. The next day owner Roland called me, we met the next day. He was able to fit in the needed repairs 1 day later and take a piece of wood to the paint store to match the color. The result looks perfect!!"
"Excellent experience. Roof replacement looks beautiful workers give 100% and won't stop until everything is exactly to your satisfaction. Pauleta was our inspector/person in charge, and she's the best! Couldn't have asked for a more professional, efficient, accommodating and caring person! Would absolutely recommend this company!"
"Had CR3 come out to do the roofing and siding on my previous house. Nothing but professionalism and curiosity from this company. The old siding had holes in it and they were able to install all new so quickly. Bryan has the knowledge to walk you through everything. Would highly recommend for any needed project and will certainly use them in the future."
"Mike and his team were professional and helpful throughout my deck repair project. He listened to what I wanted, while providing his expert opinion, and delivered a complete project that matched my expectations. Great communication, efficient and thorough work. I will absolutely work with again for future home projects. Thanks Mike and team!"
"Pleasant to deal with: From the moment they stopped by to check out the project. Started measuring on the spot. I received an estimate within days. Once a date was scheduled, they promptly arrived. They removed cedar shake shingles, installed the vinyl, removed all debris--all in one day. I am very pleased with their work. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Elite Contracting."

While any dark color of vinyl is likely to fade, dark red and dark brown vinyl tend to fade faster and more noticeably compared with other dark colors. White is the color least likely to fade, but it will show stains, mildew, and dirt more prominently than darker colors.
Vinyl siding will fade slowly over time but will likely be most noticeable starting 10–15 years after installation. This timeline varies based on factors such as the climate where you live. In areas with more extreme hot or cold conditions, vinyl is likely to fade more quickly.
Fiber cement shingle siding is made from a blend of common ingredients, including cement, sand, water, and wood or cellulose fibers. The composition of the mixture varies depending on the manufacturer, however, with some makers opting to include special additives to improve longevity and resilience, and some include dyes and pigments to create custom colors that don’t require painting.
The main differences between dutch lap versus clapboard siding have to do with their design and texture. Clapboard siding features flat, beveled planks stacked at a slight angle, offering a simple, traditional look. Dutch lap siding features a subtly concave surface along with a notch that creates a shadowed look between the boards. This eye-catching design often resembles wood grain and introduces a noticeable shadow line, making it more visually interesting compared to the simpler look of clapboard siding.
