"Exceptional work. Vinyl siding as removed and JamesHardie siding was installed on 3 exterior sides of my home. This work was completed in two and one half days. The work was outstanding and our home looks beautiful. The workers were professional and diligent. The owner was a pleasure to work with. He was immediately responsive with the initial estimate and for any follow-up items. He was professional and courteous. We would definitely use Inspired Exteriors for any future work."
"I can’t say enough good things about the service provided by Geno and his company, Geno's Siding and Roofing in Holland, PA. They were attentive to my roofing needs, the communication throughout the installation was fantastic and the price for the excellent work can not be matched. If anyone is concerned about having roof work done, worry no more... Geno is the best!"
"Father and son have clearly been doing siding for a long time. They know the little tricks that make the job look professional. Add to that, they are really nice people. Was the price cheap? No. Was the price fair? Yes. They charged literally a third of the quote that I got from one of the big companies. With D&J the fellow who does the quoting is the same guy as the fellow installing the siding. This is the siding company that you have been looking for."
"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!!!!!!!"
"Jim was here the same day and repaired my vinyl siding. He did a good job saving the siding that was blown off by the wind. The siding is very secure now ready for the next wind storm."
"Anthony and his team did a great job replacing my damage stucco. Anthony came out quickly to look at the damage and to figure out where water was getting in. He and his team showed up quickly to complete the work. I would highly recommend Derrytresk Plastering and Stucco for any stucco projects."
Yes, you can install siding over stucco, but it's crucial to ensure the stucco is in good condition first. Before proceeding, inspect the stucco for any signs of damage, leaks, or mold growth. If you discover water damage, mold, or have ongoing leak issues, it's recommended to remove the stucco completely. This step prevents future problems like mold and pest infestations and allows a professional to repair or replace any damaged sheathing underneath. If the stucco is sound, the installation process involves attaching furring strips to the wall's framing directly through the stucco. The new siding is then installed onto these furring strips. A professional may also need to adjust window and door openings to prevent them from being recessed behind the new siding, which can cause aesthetic issues and create potential leak points.
The best type of paint for vinyl siding is a high-quality acrylic latex paint, often labeled as '100% acrylic.' This type of paint is lightweight and adheres well to the vinyl surface, which reduces the likelihood of it peeling or flaking. For best results, apply two coats and avoid using thick paint. The color choice is also important; select a light color to prevent the paint from absorbing excess heat, which helps extend the durability of your paint job.
A square of siding refers to 100 square feet of siding materials. Rather than sell by the individual square foot, manufacturers typically sell siding materials by the square. For instance, if you need 105 square feet of siding but the material is sold in squares, you’ll need to purchase two squares (200 square feet).
Vinyl siding is durable, low-maintenance, weather-resistant, and available in various colors and styles. It also provides excellent insulation, improving energy efficiency.
Mildew grows into porous wood, making it more difficult to remove than regular dirt (and more destructive). We suggest using a dedicated mildew and mold fungicide to remove mildew, which is found in any local home improvement store. Apply a dose of the fungicide to the siding and leave to work according to the instructions, usually for an hour or two. Then wash it thoroughly away and scrub the spot again. Repeat the process if necessary. If nothing is removing the mildew stains, you should plan on removing those clapboard planks in time, as their damage could cause future problems.
