Are you looking for House Siding Services?

If you are still trying to decide which siding is right for your home but want to explore more options, we can guide you through the many choices available to homeowners today. We are dedicated to providing quality artistry using quality materials, ensuring you make the best choice for your home and your family. This comprehensive guide will teach you everything you need to choose the right siding for your home.

 

What Types of House Siding Services are there?

Each of the siding types has its pros and cons. Each is used on different substrates or structures. Stucco is used on block homes. Wood-framed homes, however, have stucco, cement board, and wood siding. In this post, we are discussing wood-framed homes and the various sidings on them.

The most common sidings are:

Wood – Some Florida homes have what is known as T1-11 for wood siding. It comes in 4’x8’ sheets and is installed on wood-framed homes. Though a low-cost option when installed, the material can cost $30.00 to 50.00 per 4×8 sheet. It also requires maintenance every five years or so through repainting.

Stucco – Has been used in Florida for many years with good results. It does not have exposed wood to rot. It is easily paintable but may require repainting every ten years.

Cement – Also known as Hardie-Board. It can mimic the look of wood. It can be great in the right conditions, such as chimneys or siding. Like wood, it requires painting but holds up better than wood siding by not rotting.

Vinyl – This material has been used for years for its affordability and durability. It never requires painting, is easily cleanable, and comes in many colors. It is very practicable.

Dangers of Replacing House Siding

Too often, a handyman or inexperienced person offers house siding services and not knowing what they are doing removes damaged or rotten wood found at the bottom of the house’s exterior walls by cutting the wood siding horizontally. In doing so, they take out the lateral strength of the wall. It is against the code to cut the 4×8 sheet of plywood or T1-11 siding in the middle between the top of the exterior wall and the bottom. We are called upon frequently to repair such conditions. During hurricanes, extreme pressure is pushed on house walls designed to withstand the force. By cutting the wall, the wall structure is compromised.

 

Weather Barrier

Another important issue to consider is the weather barrier installed before the vinyl siding. We use the best house wrap, Barricade® Building Wrap Plus LP, which is the ultimate protection against wind, Air, and Moisture. Please see our post on the advantages of house wrap.

We have years of experience beautifying homes by changing the house’s exterior, including the sidings.

By applying stucco over existing T1-11 wood siding or new wood siding over existing, we have found that installing vinyl over existing wood siding is the most economical. We can change the home’s appearance by adding or changing posts or beams, giving the house a more updated look. We prefer vinyl siding because it’s more affordable, can last 50 years, is resistant to pests, does not rot like wood, does not require painting, and can be cleaned easily. It can also allow for additional insulation for walls facing south and west, receiving the most heat during the summer months. Thus lowering energy bills.

To date, we have homes with vinyl siding installed by us over 30 years ago that not only still look good but have not needed to be painted or replaced, only cleaned with soap and water. Vinyl has improved over the years to meet the four things any homeowner should consider: Appearance, durability, maintenance, and energy saving. We strongly encourage entertaining vinyl siding if you are tired of rigorous maintenance routines of painting and repairing rotten wood. We also can do the soffits there so you would never get on a ladder again. Just hose the walls and soffits with water from safely on the ground.

What people are saying about Florida Roofing and Renovations Inc.

We noticed a large stucco crack in a beam supporting our house's front deck and roof at our front door. Called Carriage Roof to drive under to exit our cars, protected from the rain. The stucco contractor we had called to inspect recommended Florida Roofing and Renovations Inc. They said they handle these sorts of structural issues. So we hired Florida Roofing and Renovations Inc., not knowing what to expect. They removed a lot of the stucco to see the extent of the stucco crack. Then, after seeing the rotten wood damage to the beam and support columns, we knew there was a serious issue that needed to be corrected. Florida Roofing and Renovations Inc. showed what was damaged and why. The columns were on footers in the dirt, and the wood behind the stucco was rotting. The beam had also been rotting for a few years from the flat roof leak above. We replaced it a few years ago, but they never informed us that the beam supporting the roof was rotten. Florida Roofing and Renovations Inc. provided a proposal to properly replace the columns with new footers set above the soil line. Install new LVL beams. After we agreed to proceed, they obtained the necessary permits, began supporting our roof, and repaired all the damage. We are very pleased with Florida Roofing and Renovations Inc., which had the knowledge and experience to handle a project this serious. They shared photos throughout the project. We saw how the beam and columns should have been built from the start. Their work was excellent, and we highly recommend them.

I needed a beam on my back patio replaced. Mike came out, looked at my issue. He figured what was needed. He gave me a price and wanted a certain amount down that I was not comfortable with so we came to agreement. Rich and his crew did outstanding work, this young man is very conscientious about everything he does. Turned out I did not need the beam just the original cedar that was covering the beam was what was rotten. So they replaced all of that with pvc type material that is water proof and termite proof. They also fixed a gutter issue that cause the whole problem. Michael the owner of the company is very easy to work with, I never felt pressure at anytime that they were trying to do things that did not need done. I had a issue on my chimney that I knew about but never told them I did not think this was something for them to take care of. Rich came to me to let me know about the issue and they would take care of it which they did, but it was on the total opposite side of home so I thought that was great that at least he was checking to see if I had any other issues around the house. I had 4 other companies come out with quote and believe me they where from a-z. What made me feel comfortable picking this company was Michael the owner came out to see what was needed. Also you get the phone number for both the owner Micheal and Rich. Each time I called if they did not answer within the hour I received a call back. I would highly recommended them.

I recently had Florida Roofing and Renovations replace my house's flat roof because of a ceiling leak. Tried to have it repaired, and no one was able to stop the water from coming into my home. It was so bad that parts of the ceiling were coming down. I was told to call Michael, the owner of Florida Roofing and Renovations. He came out and determined the cause of the leak: the area where my air conditioner is on the roof. The roof needed to be replaced under the AC. Michael’s crew removed the AC unit, then the rest of the roof, and repaired the wood damaged by the leak. Then they put a whole new roof on my house. Florida Roofing and Renovations not only replaced my roof but also repaired my ceiling. Have not had any issues since. My ceiling even looks like it never leaked. I would highly recommend Florida Roofing and Renovations. I am a single mother and felt completely safe with Michael’s crew who came to my house. Thank you, Florida Roofing and Renovations, for fixing my roof.

Mike and his employees were fantastic! Everything was done as they said it would be, and done on time. They even fixed problems that the roofers who put the previous roof on had screwed up - like building over our dryer vent. It’s so good to have a beautiful roof and to be able to connect our dryer vent properly. Can’t say enough good things about them!
