"They were very thorough with explaining all the options and benefits between the different options for siding. Melia and Eric were very helpful and knowledgeable."
"Luis was very professional. Kept us informed during the process of installing new weed barrier, irrigation, rock and new plants and tree. Amazing job and reasonable price. Would highly recommend."
"FullTime Contractor replaced seven windows in my home, and replaced a double door to the deck, with a slider. I was very pleased with the services of Jason Olinger and his field team; noteworthy: (1) informative website, (2) discovery & review meetings clearly identified options, scope, schedule, and cost; a concise Statement of Work was developed; (3) periodic 'touch-bases' informed me of visits for measurement, status of material order, materials delivery, planned installation dates, and progress reviews/updates; (4) materials delivery was smooth; (5) install was smooth, and the install team very friendly and informative; (6) quality of work was exceptional; (7) customer satisfaction inquiry was appreciated; and (8) billing was clear and simple. I highly recommend Mr. Olinger & his FullTime Contractor team and won't hesitate to call upon them again, soon!"
"Elias Contruction provided a detailed estimate after inspecting the roof and making some qualified recommendations. The project required a few change orders that were not clarified in writing. I would recommend hiring Elias if you get changes in writing. They cleaned up pretty well although they missed a few things due to finishing in the dark. Overall satisfied with the job and cost was 60% of other bids due to sheathing adjustment."
"Custom install of 4 inch, clear, cedar T/G and 4 x 10 hardy panels. Many, many compliments and lots of eyeballs, turning my direction and job looks good year later!"

"Strickland recently installed steel siding and soffit on my 105-year-old house and I could not be happier. The house looks new while maintaining the original look (Dutch lap siding). Mike, the owner, was a breeze to work with. I called and received an estimate the next day and not only was he nice and professional; he was enthusiastic about how solid the seamless steel product is. I signed the agreement in mid-November and they started in late December. The siding/soffit was finished in about 9 days, which was impressive for such a tall house. The crew were super polite, professional, and highly skilled. I was impressed with how clean they left the house and yard each night. I am already recommending Strickland to everyone. It is such a relief to know the house is protected and that I will never have to paint it again. The house has no central heating/air and gets cold in the winter. Due to the foam sheeting and new siding installed directly over the old wood siding, it is noticeably warmer inside. Wish I had done it years ago. The only part that sucked was that it was dark when I left and came home so I was not able to see much better it looked each day!"
Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don’t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money.
You should use a siding nail gun for siding installation, but if you don’t have one you can use a framing nailer instead, if the nails are long enough to firmly attach to the clapboard siding. However, framing requires longer nails that join lumber together. In that instance, siding nails will not be enough.
Cracked mortar, loose bricks, water damage, and efflorescence (white powdery deposits) are common problems.
Steel and aluminum are two types of metal siding that are commonly used for residential and commercial buildings, but the materials have specific differences. Typically, steel is heavier and sturdier, fending off scratches and dents, while aluminum is lightweight and more prone to damage. Cost is another differentiating factor, as steel is more expensive than aluminum siding cost.
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.
