"From the very first day, down to the end of the project, these guys are amazing!!!! Chris and Greg met with me several times, went over all the questions I had down to detail. There was no push to buy, like so many of the other window salesman. I felt they just wanted you to get exactly what you wanted, at a great price. Even when the guys came to put in all 10 windows, they were all very nice, pofessional and it was done in a timely manner. I am not going anywhere else for anything, next they will do my siding. This company really is the best!!!!!!!"
"I have used Grant for two projects at my home and have nothing but great things to say about both Grant & his work. He replaced some broken siding for us and also installed our back door. Both projects were done in one day & our home was left clean. His work is impeccable! Grant is a great honest guy & I recommend him for any of your siding, door or window needs!"
"From the first estimate with Harry, to interactions with Jason and finally the team that replaced my roof - everything went very smoothly and my roof looks fantastic. I had received 4 estimates for this work and J.W. Tull matched the lowest bid I received and also upgraded the shingles to CertainTeed Shingles. Turnaround time from estimate to roof completion was 6 days. The first day my roof was torn off, plank replacement where necessary, and shingle application. The roofing team work very efficiently and arrived at 8 am and worked through until 730 pm on the first day. The second day the team installed the rest of the roof, including a dormer that needed flat roof installation. When finished the team cleaned my yard up and ran the magnet in all surrounding areas. This morning you would never know they had been there the last two days as my yard was immaculate. Jason, thanks to you and your team for all your efforts - I love the roof!"
"Pete was very knowledgeable and professional,and explained every process very clearly and thoroughly, as the roofing process has changed in a 20-plus years since I've been involved in it. And I plan to hire magic Roofing and siding when the time comes for me to have my roof done."
"From the very beginning Bob from Design a Castle Remodelers was great! We called him for a quote on our siding, and we had an appointment within 2 days, he was honest and up front about what would be included in the quote given. Since we needed to complete some work to our front porch first Bob allowed us to push the project back until we knew we would be ready, and he allowed us to finance the project. Once Bob and his team started the project he made sure to stay in constant communication about what would need to be fixed or changed from the original plan and quotes. He made sure we were comfortable with the entire project and was patient when we would fire back with different questions about something. His quote was almost to the penny and there were no surprises. I highly recommend Design a Castle to anyone who is looking to have some work done. We will be contacting him again for other projects in our home."
"Joseph and his crew were hired to remove asbestos at one house and test for lead at another house. They were on time, professional, and well priced. I was happy with their services and will turn to them again for any future need"
"High-Tech Roofing came out to complete some roof repairs for an asphalt shingle roof. I liked that company and will hire the professional for some additional repair work in future."
You should use a siding nail gun for siding installation, but if you don’t have one you can use a framing nailer instead, if the nails are long enough to firmly attach to the clapboard siding. However, framing requires longer nails that join lumber together. In that instance, siding nails will not be enough.
OSB is a common material used in sheathing, so when OSB prices go up, so does the cost of sheathing. Depending on the economy and supply chain, increased costs can reduce demand, though some homeowners proceed with their projects despite the elevated expenses.
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.
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.
Composite siding is very resistant to warping that can affect some other sidings. Because of its composition, this siding doesn’t have the same risks of moisture damage that can cause rotting, buckling, and warping. Composite material doesn’t warp in high temperatures the way some kinds of vinyl siding can.
That said, composite siding is not entirely immune from moisture damage. It should still be properly installed so that moisture can properly drain from behind the siding, and protected by eaves and clean gutter so the siding doesn’t get repeatedly soaked by rain, which could lead to damage.
