Is removing all my siding necessary?
It is not always necessary to remove your existing siding. This can sometimes save on the cost of your reside. It you have T-1-11 or a flat siding system currently installed we may be able to go over top. It is very important to us we are not covering up a defective type of siding or one that is having existing problems (L-P, dry rot and buckling for example). Our project mamager can walk around your home and discuss these options with you at that time. If you have traditional lap siding, it is very likely it will have to be remove it first.
Are your estimates free and how long are they valid?
Estimates are free and good for 30 days. Past 30 days it is best to call us and ask if a re-estimate is needed. Often an estimate will be good past 30 days, but this depends on the material cost.
