"I have owned my house for 7 years and have over the years received a lot of quotes for windows from many companies. This is the ONLY company that made it convenient to receive a quote, they did not try to upsell me, understood my budget, they were calm and patient with me and my three rambunctious kids! And most of all DID NOT MAKE MY HUSBAND HAVE TO BE PRESENT FOR THE QUOTE (so he did NOT have take off work or leave early to get home and our dinner and nap time was NOT interrupted). The crew they sent to install my windows was Aaron and his co- workers. They were amazing Aaron and his team went above and beyond to not just install my windows but, make me feel comfortable with having them in my home. They again were patient and kind with my children running around. They made it a POINT AND TOOK EXTREME EFFORT to cover all my furniture, fixtures, kids toys, and floors with plastic (we had lead in our windows so this was greatly appreciated). Aaron the supervisor was very knowledgeable of the dangers of lead. I was impressed with the care and attention he put into making sure I knew he was taking every step to ensure my families safety. The workmanship they exhibited was amazing they paid attention to detail (my neighbors were outside the moment they pulled out of my driveway admiring the great job they did!). I have used other window companies before and was very disappointed and felt scorned by the window industry. Solar windows has restored my faith and trust and I look forward to doing more business with them in the future. "
"I got a new roof and siding and gutters from this crew, and they were fantastic! Lots of updates and communication throughout the project, and I am thrilled with the results."
"Thomas and his crew did an outstanding job replacing the roofs on both my house and garage. From the initial inspection through the completion of the insurance claim and installation, they were professional, thorough, and attentive to every detail. The quality of their workmanship exceeded my expectations, and they made sure everything was cleaned up before the job was finished. I couldn't be happier with my new roof and gutters or the exceptional customer service I received throughout the entire process. I highly recommend Thomas and his team to anyone looking for quality work and reliable service. Since they are a true one-stop shop, I look forward to working with them again on future home improvement projects."
"The roof looks great. They arrived on time and worked well until it was done. We are happy with the way it looks and we’re happy with the clean up done when they were finished. I would recommend this company if you are in the market for a roof."
"We had a great experience with Mike and Veterans Environmental. They came out the same day we called, provided a quote right away, and were able to start the asbestos removal work just a few days later. The entire process was quick, professional, and reassuring — our asbestos pipes were removed and the house was cleaned within just a few days. Mike also kept the air filters running for several days after the job was completed, which gave us extra peace of mind. He was easy to communicate with, reliable, and very willing to help with additional debris removal from the rest of the house for an additional fee. We truly appreciated his professionalism and would highly recommend Veterans Environmental."
"KC roofing did a great job on my roof. They are very reliable and were very helpful with all my questions. From start to finish they did a fantastic job. I did not have one issue with their workmanship and overall professionalism. Josh C. The contractor did a wonderful job in setting up the job. Which helped the work at my home run smooth and without any issues at all. I would recommend Josh C. and KC roofing to others in need. Thank you so much! Great job guys!"

Professional installers typically recommend caulking between siding boards, but it depends on the material. With Hardie board and fiber cement siding, manufacturers don't recommend adding caulk because it can trap moisture in the joints or discourage flexibility in fluctuating temperatures. Consult your local siding contractor about caulking best practices before adding any to your home’s exterior.
Siding underlayment varies based on the type of material, but most siding is installed on top of a vapor barrier, a moisture-resistant house wrap, sheathing made from plywood or oriented strand board (OSB), and a layer of insulation sheeting. Having the correct underlayment is a critical part of properly installing siding and will protect your home from water intrusion, structural damage, and energy loss.
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.
When it comes to fiber cement siding maintenance, it’s not too much work. However, it needs to be painted about every 15 years and may need to be re-caulked to prevent mold. Be sure to also wash your fiber cement siding with a lower-powered garden hose at least twice a year to avoid buildup and fading as well.
Brick and stone are durable, low-maintenance materials that offer excellent insulation, aesthetic appeal, and can increase property value.
