"I cannot say enough good things about Valle Painting. I initially hired them to do some exterior painting (gorgeous job!). Mr. Valle showed up to inspect his team's work, we started talking about other work his company does to include decking. My old deck was apx. 30 years old and had gone 15+ years without maintenance. The structure was dirty but in good shape, but the deck surfaces were dry and rotting - and completely unsafe. Mr. Valle walked me through his vision - replace the horizontal surfaces with Trex composite, power wash the verticals and structure pieces, then stain the vertical surfaces to match the Trex. I had been pricing materials to DIY the work, but Mr. Valle's pricing was quite fair, and his service is impeccable. While purchasing the materials, he called to let me know that the color of the Trex sample we chose was slightly off of what he was seeing at the lumberyard. He was worried that it might not look as nice as I expected, and he delayed his purchase until I could take a second look. I was thankful for the call because he was right - and we ended up changing the color at the last minute. Over the course of the two days, Mr. Valle's deck team ripped out the old boards, inspected the structure, added a new joist, made some minor repairs to the structure and rails, and installed Trex on all the horizontal surfaces including the deck stairs. The next day, Mr. Valle came out himself to do the power washing of the rails and structure. The painting team came out the following two days to stain the rails, the deck posts, and the vertical trim pieces. In about a week (plan to finish), I went from having an unsafe eyesore to having a gorgeous, safe, and usable deck that looks like something out of a magazine. I've already recommended Valle Painting to friends and neighbors. And because they do so much more than painting, Valle Painting will will be first in line for some remodeling work in my near future."

"Richline was the best to work with. Very timely, polite, and the two different teams, roof, and siding were very hard working guys. In fact, I plan on having them install my new windows as well. I have just referred them to a friend too!"

"In all honesty I would definitely hire Absolute Construction again. They made it very easy and simple. With my project I had a limited amount of money I could use because I was turning the apartment into a rental space. Absolute Construction went above and beyond to make sure my job was completed and they hooked me up on the price because they knew I was on a very limited budget. I will be calling them again."

"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."

Siding FAQs, answered by experts

Traditional clapboard siding, particularly with panels made from wood, is not a significant insulator on its own. However, you can keep your home cooler in summer and warmer with "insulated clapboard siding," which is a type of vinyl clapboard siding with a built-in foam insulation. Consult a local siding contractor to determine whether insulated siding is right for your home.

Yes, siding orientation can affect a home’s resale value, but in what way and by how much really depends on the prospective buyer. For instance, some buyers prefer the more modern appearance that vertical siding offers, so having it can increase your home’s value in their eyes. However, other buyers prefer the classic, more common appearance of horizontal siding, so having vertical siding can decrease your home’s value in their eyes. 

If you buy new cedar, the process of cutting it usually roughs up the surface enough that it doesn’t require sanding. However, if you buy older cedar or you’re repurposing it from another application, it’s a good idea to sand it. This helps the stain settle into the grain, and results in a more uniform appearance.

Yes, you can mount shutters to vinyl siding. Depending on the weight and material of choice, you may need more fasteners or larger fasteners to secure the shutters onto the vinyl surface. It’s also important to locate studs or drill into the window frame when installing heavier shutters to best hold the weight of the shutters if you opt for composite or wood shutters.

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.
