"Roofx is the real deal. The price was right and the work was done well. Any questions that I had were answered thoroughly by Mark. I would absolutely recommend them if you need any siding work done."
"The contracted the work off to a third party. Jon took longer than expected. The windows was installed pretty good from the looks. Communication could have been better with knowing the job will take longer and what types of trims I wanted for the windows. As the contractor that was hired for this job by this company. Did a good job with putting up decent trim. As for the new windows they look great. I purchased the myself and hired sentri homes to install them. I will need to have a my siding on my house redone to be closer to the new windows so the gaps are not so obvious. That was not expected at first. But from old storm windows and not knowing how they were put in originally. There was some unknown things that was learned from the job being completed. I will have the siding of the house slightly done to match really good for what I wanted later on. My only concern is better communication with sentri homes. Overall they were great when I did talk to them."

"Daniel, Pop and the crew of fellas he has did such a great job on replacing my old roof with a beautiful metal roof. He was truly a blessing...in every way. Called me right back, came to give me a quote which he literally gave me the same day. VERY VERY REASONABLE AND CAME IN 4K LESS than my highest quote. That is going above and beyond as far as I'm concerned. From the material delivery driver right up to the work trailer driver these men are top notch. He even worked around my trees and gardens in my small yard and never hurt a single tomato or pepper. Wow. I was truly amazed. And the cleanup..the cleanup...was better than I imagined. Trust me.. I looked for anything left behind and there was not a single thing. That's integrity right there. Please don't hesitate to hire Gap Roofing and Construction for any of your needs. You won't be sorry for a second. My only wish was that I had more work for them. Not many people I'd say that about either. Thank you Daniel and team for ALL YOU DO.."
"Job took less than 3 days (one of them rainy). Completed a couple extra minor roof repairs at no extra charge. Nice job cleaning up site. Roof looks great. Very satisfied. Planning on using them again in spring for siding the house. "
Met with Gino early June. Original contact with him (he called) was 3 hours after my email on a Sunday! Met with him several times going over what we wanted, gave him architectural drawings of the deck and discussed materials to be used. We had some concerns over attaching such a large structure to the house and wanted to be sure we would have no problems with it shifting or collapsing and to make sure the weight bearing was addressed with all posts etc. He was great to deal with, able to reach easily and quick to sign the contracts and pick up the deposit. I called 3 references, all glowing. All stated Gino's men worked from 7:00am to 7:00pm and finished the jobs in the assigned time and quality of work was excellent. 2 were repeat customers and some even referred him to their friends and actually he was on those additional jobs then. Sounded GREAT!
Contracts signed 6-22-12
Promised start date 7-16-12 and quoted a 10-14 day job. The only item not included in our original plans was the railing. We changed our minds and added the railing to the bid on 7-17-12 and paid for supplies and labor for this addition in full. Not once did Gino mention this may cause an extension on the original 10-14 day job time. Promised start date delayed a week to 7-23-12. No one showed up. We had to call him to see what was going on! He then promised they would be there on 7-25-12, no one showed. FINALLY they showed up on 7-28-12. He offered NO explanation at that time. His employees would not show up for days with no explanation. Weather was cooperative. I found the prIncipal problem to be inexperienced employees with little to no supervision, they seem unsure as to what to do. Some errors in work were so obvious I noticed them! All issues we pointed out were corrected promptly. Here is a timeline of the work done using my dated photographs as a reference so as to be fair and accurate: July 28th-siding removed (3/4 of the back of my home is exposed to the elements). Holes being dug for sonna tubes. (note-they did have to dig in bedrock and actually needed jackhammers for a few of them). August 3rd-sonna tubes in. 3 long beams in for the base of the deck (extending to the back from the house). August 7th-framing has been done for the second time. First time they had such a bow in it that a foreman ripped it out and redid it in a day! August 13th-started roof beam frame. August 15th-roof frame complete. August 20th-shingles on the roof complete-more siding removed. August 22-face of the roof completed. (triangle part now solid) August 25th-face of the roof now has scalloped siding August 28th-inside of roof framed for soffit. August 30th-2 of the 3 columns up, 14 X 22 section of decking almost complete. August 31st-all decking down, 3 columns done- still no siding on my house. We have been having major water damage to the interior of our home due to heavy rainfall and no siding. Spoke with GIno about our concerns but still no finish date set. September 7th-railing 3/4 done, still missing siding and steps. September 13th railing complete, still needs soffit work and gutters. Siding now beginning to be being replaced but it has been almost 2 months without siding! September 21st-soffit work completed. Siding is on and has been cleaned with a pressure washer. Finally able to place my recently purchased furniture (June) onto my deck. Still needs lattice work completed but at least now I can sit on my deck (in a jacket!) Just in time to put the furniture away for the winter! October 3rd-lattice work complete. Deck finally finished. To sum up my experience with Gino and ECO Builder Services: The end result was a beautiful deck. He always returned our calls even when he knew we were upset or angry.
What I did not like The time promised for the job (10-14 days) did not equal the time it took to finish the job! (82 total days/60 work days if you count Monday to Friday). When I addressed this with Gino I was met with rude comments, him hiding behind 2 separate contracts of 10-14 days , plus the add on contract (for items he neglected to include in the original bid!) 5-7 days and stating the times listed for each job were consecutive. While I understand weather may play a part in missing some days here and there, I can assure you that the weather was the least of it. Lack of appropriate workers on site was always the problem.
I did not appreciate being bumped for more "important" clients and being the subject of his poor time management skills. Spending $19,000 on a deck and not being able to use it for an entire year is not what I had in mind back in mid JUNE.
"The work was really good, the clean up was good, he was actually on site, they got the work was done in no time, 1 day for the roof, another for the siding and it was 1 day for the painting, they did a wonderful job. I highly recommend them to my friends."
"Mr. Don Smith was very respectable and dependable he did what he said he was going to do and respected me and my family. He and his team made sure they stayed out the way and was done in less than two weeks."
"They were reasonably priced and even though there were issues with the weather, they got it finished on time. It went well. I plan on hiring them again! I would recommend them."
To clean painted aluminum siding, use a mixture of mild detergent and water applied with a soft brush or sponge. Rinse thoroughly with a garden hose to remove soap residue. For stubborn stains, cleaning aluminum siding with a power washer on a low-pressure setting can be effective. But avoid using high pressure, which could damage the paint.
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.
Yes, you can mix siding types to create a unique design. However, it requires thoughtful planning to execute properly. The installation process will also be more time-consuming than if you were to choose either vertical or horizontal for the entire home, so it will cost you more in labor and design costs.
Though vinyl siding is affordable, the material may not last as long or look as good as other siding materials. For example, wood siding has a beautiful, natural appearance but requires much more maintenance to keep your siding looking as good as new.
Fiber cement siding is another alternative that mimics the appearance of wood siding. Like vinyl siding, fiber cement is a low-maintenance material, but it does come at a higher price and is heavier and more difficult to install. Weigh the pros and cons of all siding materials before you decide on the best option for your home.
Yes, the thickness of siding is an important factor to consider when replacing it. Siding thickness helps to determine how your home retains and redirects heat. While thicker siding has a premium price, it offers greater strength and durability, stronger insulation, better wind and weather resistance, increased rigidity, and better soundproofing.
