"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."
"I initially wanted some loose siding nailed into the house. Mark walked around the entire house with us and pointed out numerous issues. He gave us a quote for all the issues. After we agreed there were a few smaller items that came up. Mark didn't nickel and dime me. He did the work for the previously agreed to price. The workers were friendly and considerate as they went about their work."
"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! 👍"
"Young Environmental was extremely professional and walked us through the steps from start to finish. We had asbestos paper wrapping the ducts in our home. Young Environmental removed these ducts, cleaned, and removed the trash. I was impressed with the efficiency of the operation. All work was completed in about 5 days, including the time needed for pre-testing and post-testing. The only minor hiccup was that I did not receive the certificate of abatement immediately. But, to be honest, I didn't even realize that I didn't have the certificate until a month or two later. I called and Peter quickly resolved the matter, emailing it to me in a few hours. Overall, it was a really good experience. I was very nervous when we found asbestos in the house, but very pleased with Young Environmental's professionalism and services in helping us move the remodel process forward. I would recommend them and would use them again. "
"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."
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.
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.
The best types of siding to withstand hail are fiber cement siding and engineered wood siding. Fiber cement siding is known for impact resistance, while some brands of engineered wood siding can withstand hail as big as 1 and 3/4 inches with no marks. Vinyl and aluminum siding are the most susceptible to hail.
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.
