"These guys did such a great job pressure washing my home; it looks so much better. Their customer service was great, and the price was not bad at all. I will most certainly be hiring these guys for future services."
"We interviewed six vendors to receive estimates and explore various products and installation options. The price estimates of our top three were fairly close. We chose American Siding in-part because it is a local small business, but also because of the product line and workmanship techniques described The project was delayed about a month from the target start date due to prior job sire requesting additional work not included in their original contract. Our project included high end vinyl siding with foam backing and we had over 30 windows on the house and shed. Paul worked with us to use lower grade siding and windows on the shed to help keep costs down. His crew of Jonathan and Dave were professional and friendly, very hard workers. We had frequent discussions to be kept up to speed on the work being and the progress of the job. A separate crew did the roof which took only two days, although the second day ended at about 8:30. The overall job took about five weeks. A great deal of attention to detail was paid to the installation process. The siding was applied on top of the existing siding. A lot of time was spent on building out the windows so they would not be recessed. Many other details that are not seen were attended to that I believe some other companies would skip. Our original contract was for 40K but we had an additional $700 overrun. This was for the replacement of a large amount of rotten wood beyond the amount agreed to upfront. We have had several compliments from our neighbors and are delighted with the appearance. We have several improvements immediately. The house is quieter, the temperature throughout the house is much more even and the ac runs less often. Even when you go from downstairs to upstairs the temperature is constant and it no longer feels as stuffy upstairs. This is in part due to the venting in the roof. All in all we highly recommend considering American Siding Inc."
"They were fast, efficient, and CLEAN. Very professional. Work was really well done- biggest problem is that the part of the ceiling they installed is so much nicer than the part that wasn't affected by the flood. Brian and team from Walls had done a previous job- installing a ventilating fan in the ceiling of our guest bathroom where our old fan was doing a terrible job; paint was peeling because of moisture. Brian got me a much better fan and installed it- difference was amazing. The guys saw that our banister going down to the basement had come loose- and without my asking and at no charge, they repaired it. I now use them for a variety of handy man tasks. They are not cheap: as I recall, around $125 to come out - but they are fast and very good and manage to keep the price reasonable. "

"We are very pleased with Sky Home Improvements/Ben Meffley's work and communication. The work was done at a rental home so we really appreciate Ben's great communication and keeping us updated. Ben sent before and after pictures. There were a couple of things that Ben noticed on the roof that would become problems in the future. He called explained the situation and sent pictures. He was very straight forward and honest and sent pictures of the items he noticed. It was nice to be able to see (from the pictures) what needed to be done for ourselves. In the future if there is anymore work that needs to be done we would definitely call Sky Home Improvements. "
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.
Board and batten siding refers to the look and style of the installation rather than the material itself. You can install board and batten siding whether you choose vinyl, wood, fiber cement, or metal as your material. Among other popular siding styles to consider are clapboard siding, stucco, shake siding, and log cabin siding. Stone, stone veneer, brick, and brick veneer are considered high-end alternatives that can help maximize ROI and curb appeal.
Before applying paint to exterior surfaces, filling any cracks or gaps with caulk is essential. Sealing them with a combination of caulk and paint prevents moisture from damaging the paint or decaying the underlying material. You want to ensure the caulk you purchase can be painted over or that you opt for a caulk the same color as the paint.
To calculate how much siding you need for exterior walls, first measure the height and width of the rectangular walls. For the triangular gable walls, measure the width and then the height from the ground to the tallest gable point.
For the rectangular walls, the calculation is: length x height
For the triangular gable walls, the calculation is: (length x height) / 2
Once you add these up, include an additional 10% to account for any wastage.
Consider your home's architectural style, neighborhood guidelines, and the vendor's options. Samples and software previews can help visualize the final result.
