"This review is long overdue. Peter and his team abated vermiculite in our new home before we moved in on the off chance that asbestos was present. We obtained 3 estimates for this work, and his cost was about in the middle. He was extremely professional throughout the process, taking the time to educate me about what his team would do and why. Asbestos removal is the type of home expense that I never thought I'd have to pay, and really wished I didn't have to, but Peter's professionalism and positive attitude took some of that sting away. His team was on time, and they completed the work in a timely manner. Peter also offered to coordinate the environmental testing after the abatement, but he was open and honest about the fact that doing so could make him appear biased. That being said, the team that conducted the environmental testing (RTS Environmental) was also recommended by my realtor, and I went with them and had him coordinate the testing to save me the hassle. I have recommended Peter to friends in the past, and I wouldn't hesitate to do so again. "
"All workers were well experinced in their trade. The job of installing the Patio Door was a problem because of a previous improperly intalled roof which caused water damage to the top, left side panels of plywood and 2 by 4's around the framing had to be replaced. The only issue was that the added work was to be in the estimate."
"1st day trim & siding crew arrived & worked til after dark to finish (left trash on property). I called to have crew leader return to fix sub-par work and finish dryer vent. Roof crew worked all 2nd day & left after completing job - signed off to very satisfactory work."
"Update 2-12-16 : I was having a little bit of trouble with my attic fan after the baffles were installed. Roofing & More came out and checked it out. The company sent out Gene Davis, their Operations Manager. It was a pleasure working with Gene. He was friendly, professional and knowledgeable. He did a thorough job investigating the situation. He ended up tightening the connection of the fan to the electrical source. His services were covered under warranty.
I would also like to thank Marie Hoffman for her help with trying to find the right type of replacement vinyl siding for my home. Marie went out of her way to come to my house after work to bring me several samples of vinyl siding that she thought would work well with the exterior of my home. I appreciated that extra step Marie took.
Re-evaluating all my experiences with Roofing & More I have decided to change my grade from a 'B' to an 'A'. They earned it.
My experience was comprised of both positive and negative encounters. Positive: a.) receptionist called me back in a timely manner to schedule a free onsite consultation. b.) project manager who conducted onsite consultation was professional and conducted a thorough examination of the items I wanted work on. c.) the technician who actually did the work was skilled, had command of the English language and had copies of the work order in hand. Negative: a.) I had to chase down getting a quote. It was necessary for me to contact the president of the company in order to get this done. After he returned my call to discuss the matter I received a quote later that day. b.) my original appointment was cancelled due to an emergency. That is alright. Emergency situations requiring our immediate attention happen to all of us. I understand that. A replacement appointment was made. I received a call on the day of that rescheduled appointment stating that it needed to be rescheduled. I was very unhappy about that. c.) I failed to receive calls / info when I was told I would get them. This happened repeatedly. That is not how I do business. d.) I found it strange the estimate did not have itemized pricing on it. Rather it listed all the items to be worked on and a grand total reflecting discounts. I will say however, the details of each job to be completed were spot on. My mistake, other than asking for a breakout of job costs was not asking what type of baffles were going to be installed. I would have paid for a better material than foam. However, these are my mistakes. e.) I dealt with several people within the organization concerning my project at various times. I got the feeling they were not communicating to one another. I often found myself telling different people the same thing. I asked 'didn't he or she contact you about this?.' f.) There was a problem regarding the vinyl siding that was brought for the job. The project manager indicated to me he found a 'perfect match.? Well that turned out not to be the case. It does not match at all. The technician ultimately removed a piece of the existing siding to see if he could identify the manufacturer and color type. He was able to do so. I asked him for that info. To make sure we got the right pieces the next go round I did my own research online. I provided that info to Roofing & More. We are now waiting to hear back regarding the cost. I am being told I will be responsible for this cost. I am ok with this since they need to order it in a bundle and I will have left over pieces in case something needs to be replaced in the future. I too may have agreed with the contractor about the original vinyl piece color. To be honest I can?t recall. I would give Roofing and More a letter grade of 'B'. I would also like to point out the people are ok to deal with."
"We had been exploring replacing our windows for over a year. Meeting with upwards of 16 window installation companies in the area. Exterior Max had great customer reviews and we decided to set an appointment. Best decision ever! They have a diverse and robust catalog for all your windows, sliding glass, and roofing needs. Throughout the entire process the team was professional, responsive , and made us feel like a priority customer. Thus far Exterior Max has replaced 30 Casement windows, three sliding glass doors, our roof and gutters. Looking forward to doing our next project, siding with Exterior Max in the very near future."

You should install your cedar shake siding with the rough side exposed. The smooth side is less resistant to weathering over the years, and the rough side gives your home a more rugged aesthetic. The rough side also takes to paint better and ensures any paint job will last longer before needing to be redone.
Homeowners insurance may cover the cost of siding repair or replacement, but coverage depends on the cause of the damage. Most policies will cover damage from a covered event, such as a storm, wind, hail, fire, natural disaster, or other impact damage. Your policy might pay for the full or partial cost of the repair or replacement. However, damage resulting from age, general wear and tear, or neglect is typically not covered, and you should expect to pay for those repairs out of pocket. It is best to review your specific homeowners insurance policy for full details on what is covered, how to file a claim, and what documentation is required.
Insulated vinyl siding costs about twice as much as the cheapest form of vinyl siding, but it’s still more affordable than other types of siding, including fiber cement, wood, stone, and brick. You get a lot of bang for your buck with vinyl siding; it’s durable, it’s available in a wide range of styles and colors, and it helps lower your energy bills.
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.
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.
