"Amazing experience! Tim was great walking my mom and I through through process of siding and gutter replacement. Very quick process and now my home has a wonderful new face-lift! 😀 Heather and Elvin were also very helpful in the project."
"Nhoj was very friendly and professional. He was able to come out the next morning to fix the loose siding and reasonably priced. Very knowledgeable and pinpointed how the siding was not properly secured previously. Highly recommend! 👍"
"Our review is based on the purchase (part 1) for replacing siding for both side of our home. Jacob L. was very professional, on time, and honest. He knows what he is selling. We learned a lot about our home during his presentation. Before we bought our home we paid for a professional home inspection. We thought our house inspector was very good but he did miss something---the siding on the sides of our home was installed extremely bad. Jacob pointed out so much that we just didn't know and should have be caught during our home inpection. Thanks Jacob!!"
"I was so happy with the work that Young Environmental did in my rental home. I am located in another state and couldn't fly back when the basement of my rental home flooded in June. I had had a few not-so-great experiences with other contractors, so I joined Angie's List to hopefully make some more progress with getting the repairs done. I contacted 3 companies in order to get a quote to do the work. I spoke to Peter over the phone and was impressed that they would send someone out to do the estimate in person, the other company just guessed based on the information I gave them over the phone. The estimator came out the next day and I had the quote later that afternoon. I spoke to Peter again to ask more questions about the process, and then decided to use Peter as his quote was better than the other company and I liked his professionalism. The work was scheduled to be done the following week and the team showed up on time and took the estimated time they said they would. I was able to take care of payment over the phone with Peter while the team was doing the work, and he even honored the Angie's List discount the following day when I realized that I had forgotten to mentioned it originally. Overall, one of the best experiences I've had with a contractor and I would definitely recommend this company to others that need abatement work done. "
"This work was done under warranty related to a major project R&M did in 2010. The major hale storm in the summer of 2010 badly damaged our roof and aluminum siding. R&M was selected to replace the roof and the siding. The total job was in excess of $25,000; fortunately it was covered by our insurance policy. We were very pleased by the earlier work. So, for this work I called R&M thinking we would be paying for a small project. Kyle Hoffman, president and owner of Roofing & More, came and personally inspected the damage. He made a video of the damage and described what needed to be done. The video was then sent to the office via the Internet and a request was made for a technician to come as soon as one was available. While sitting in our kitchen Kyle checked the office records via phone . He then told us that the work was under warranty from the initial job and that there would be no cost to us. The technician came in less than an hour, he knew exactly what to do, and he did it quickly. He was professional and polite. My wife and could not have been more pleased. This was exceptional service! Roofing & More, Inc. gets an A+ in my book. "
"Falcon Home Exteriors absolutely worked wonders on my home! The transformation from the new roof and siding is incredible, and I couldn?t be happier with how everything turned out. The quality of the work, attention to detail, and professionalism from start to finish were truly impressive. A special shoutout to Jawaun, who was amazing throughout the entire process. He answered every question I had, explained everything clearly, and made sure I felt comfortable and informed every step of the way. That level of customer service really made a difference. If you?re looking to upgrade your roof or siding, I highly recommend Falcon Home Exteriors. They did an outstanding job, and my home looks better than ever! 5 stars all the way! ?????"
Increasing home value and return on investment (ROI) are two different things and it’s important to differentiate between the two. While a kitchen remodel will surely raise the value of the house, it may only have an ROI of around 50%. Homeowners looking to raise the value of their home for sale will have to consider how much they will recoup by the monetary investment in projects, as the ROI percentages may be lower or higher than the added value on a dollar-for-dollar basis.
If you’re wondering how to clean clapboard siding, the approach depends on its material and condition. Siding in good shape may need only light soap and spray from the hose, while older siding often requires more thorough treatment. For serious cleaning, power washing can remove caked-on dirt, but you should consider hiring a professional to avoid causing damage in the process.
Hardie board is more expensive than vinyl siding. Vinyl siding costs $3 to $12 per square foot, on average, with cost skewing toward the lower end of that range. Hardie board siding costs $7 to $18 per square foot, depending on the style, color, and trim. However, it lasts twice as long and often looks nicer, meaning you’ll see a higher bump in your home value and greater curb appeal from Hardie board.
Pressure washing shou sugi ban siding is generally not a good idea. The charring process used in creating shou sugi ban siding involves burning the wood's surface to achieve its unique appearance and enhanced durability. The charred surface is delicate, and pressure washing can easily damage it. Instead of pressure washing, you can clean it with a soft brush or broom to remove loose debris, followed by a mixture of mild soap and water applied with a soft cloth or sponge.
Vinyl can withstand many different cleaning methods, but there are two things you need to be wary of. First, particularly harsh chemicals will damage your vinyl siding and reduce its lifespan. Second, be careful about pressure washing your vinyl siding. Vinyl can resist powerful washing damage more than softer siding like wood, but high levels of pressure can still crack it. Use the lowest level of pressure for power washing vinyl, or hire a siding professional to do it.
