"The SK Capital Services contractor was on time, he was careful, took photos of any other roofing problems, replaced and repainted the right rear rake board. There were several loose and missing shingles, which I had him replace and nail down any problem areas. I was very pleased with his work and would recommend him to my neighbors and friends."
"They did a fantastic job on my wood siding, window trim, and painting. Of 3 different contractors to perform this type of work for me over the last 15 years, they did without a doubt the best job. I would highly recommend them. They were very responsive to small requests such as removing an unwanted satellite dish rather than painting around it. There were some minor challenges getting on the schedule As a result we ran up against a schedule deadline for me and had to proceed with some second choice siding for some of the repairs. There was a little confusion over the required permit too, but in the end they got the work done when I needed it to be done. They estimated a little low, and the final cost was about 25% higher."
"We had an old Hot Tub in the deck that we never used and it was leaking. We also had some trim work and siding that needed to be replaced. Mr. Davis and his crew went to work taking the hot tub out and replacing the deck, repaired siding, and trim. Their work was excellent. Everything was done on time and looks fantastic. They did an outstanding job. I would recommend Mr. Davis and his crew to anyone."
"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!!"
"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. "
"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! 👍"
"Shortly after purchasing our home (circa 1940), we discovered it had a significant amount of asbestos in the building materials. After interviewing multiple remediation contractors, we felt that Peter and his crew offered a professional, and careful approach. He was no-nonsense, and was willing to negotiate a fair price. The work was performed quickly, and within the time frame as promised. Peter was responsive throughout, and answered all our questions."
"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."
While almost nothing is completely fireproof, metal siding is extremely fire-resistant. It’s non-combustible so while it may eventually melt in extreme temperatures, it won’t actually light on fire itself. This can add a layer of safety to structures that wood or vinyl siding can’t, making it attractive for industrial use. Metal siding can significantly slow down the spread of a fire, giving extinguishers and firefighters a much better chance at saving the structure and containing the blaze.
Many people remove aluminum siding to get to the wood underneath, allowing them to paint, stain, or finish the wood to give the home a brand-new aesthetic. With that in mind, you find plywood and related types of wood underneath aluminum siding, but you also run into fiber cement board, strand board, and a diverse array of other building materials. It depends on the original design of the house.
Composite siding has excellent insulative properties and one of the highest R-values of siding materials available. Its R-value is 2 to 4; compare that to vinyl, wood, and fiber cement—all of which have R-values under 1. You can boost your siding’s R-value by installing a layer of foam insulation.
While any dark color of vinyl is likely to fade, dark red and dark brown vinyl tend to fade faster and more noticeably compared with other dark colors. White is the color least likely to fade, but it will show stains, mildew, and dirt more prominently than darker colors.
Costs vary based on home size, siding quality, labor, and any necessary repairs to underlying structures. High-grade materials and insulation options tend to influence the overall expense.
