"The carpenter that did the job (Adam) was amazing. He had to expand the space for one window, narrow the space for another, and repair much cedar siding that had rotted away due to water damage. He also reshaped my patio door so it would close and lock more easily. He is a very talented carpenter and I have no qualms about highly recommending him."

"I wish I could give zero stars. We hired Douglas for a kitchen remodel which involved installing a kitchen island, pantry, and all the related plumbing and electrical work. The communication between Douglas and his carpenter was terrible. We submitted sketches and agreed upon the design for the cabinets which were meant to be overlaid. When the island arrived, the cabinets were inset which did not match the rest of the kitchen. In addition, the kitchen island has split and cracked at more than half of the joints. The pantry cabinet has split and areas of unpainted MDF are showing. We have needed to paint and touch up many of these spots. Regarding the plumbing, we have had multiple significant leaks from piping and tubing that the team installed. Water has leaked even through the floor and into the basement. Upon review from other plumbers, all have confirmed the parts used were cheap and of low quality, and the workmanship was subpar. After a major leak in the middle of the night, we reached out to Douglas and respectfully voiced our issues and complaints. He ignored us for a full month, and then instead of simply stopping by to take a look at the problems (which would have been the first major step to alleviating our frustrations), he responded in a despicable manner. He even included the following quote from his lawyer, He laughed saying that perhaps you lost your job (due to the CoronaVirus) and were probably scrounging for any money you could scrape up. Who would want to work with someone like this?"

"Please make the following no longer than 2000 characters: After experiencing several disappointing encounters with contractors in the past, I am grateful to have selected Mighty Dog Roofing, a Better Business Bureau (BBB) verified and certified contractor, for our recent roofing project, which was executed to our satisfaction. Mighty Dog Roofing distinguishes itself as a substantial entity equipped with appropriate tools and modern technologies for the job. Unlike smaller contractors that often rely on temporary and untrained installers, Mighty Dog employs a team of proficient and experienced roof installers. Their capacity to mobilize a sizable installation team facilitated the completion of our extensive roof replacement within a remarkably efficient two-day timeframe, preempting impending adverse weather conditions. Throughout the project, communication remained consistently professional. Particularly noteworthy was the dedication of Project Manager Damien Sheerin, who diligently kept me abreast of material procurement, preparatory measures, installation progress, and post-installation inspections. Damien, alongside on-site manager Roberto, exhibited commendable initiative in addressing an unforeseen chimney issue, coordinating prompt professional assessments and contributing to the reconstruction of the chimney's exterior housing. Upon project completion, Mighty Dog Roofing demonstrated a commitment to thoroughness by conducting a comprehensive cleanup. Damien's return visit the following morning for a final inspection underscored the company's attention to detail and dedication to client satisfaction. Furthermore, Mighty Dog Roofing presented a competitive and reasonable quotation, aligning favorably with comparative assessments of multiple contractors. While they may not offer the lowest prices, their pricing falls within a reasonable range. In conclusion, based on my positive experience, I wholeheartedly endorse Mighty Dog Roofing as a reputable and trustworthy roofing company. I am confident in recommending their services to my acquaintances and friends."

Vinyl siding is generally less expensive than wood siding. The lower cost of vinyl is due to less expensive materials and simpler installation compared to the premium materials and rigorous installation standards of wood siding. While vinyl siding installation starts at around $6,000, wood siding involves higher costs for both materials and labor. If budget is a primary concern, vinyl may be the more cost-effective option.
With proper maintenance, wood siding can last 40 years or more. Regular cleaning, sealing, and staining protect it against rot, insect damage, and moisture. Maintaining it and making prompt repairs helps preserve its durability and appearance over the years.
Installing wood siding on a 1,500-square-foot house costs about $12,500 on average. This cost reflects the investment in quality materials and professional installation. You can reduce expenses by choosing more affordable wood types or handling some of the work yourself, though it's important to weigh the trade-offs to ensure lasting results.
Yes, you can replace vinyl siding with wood siding, provided your home's structure meets all relevant building codes. This process requires a thorough inspection of the underlying framework, proper installation of a breathable house wrap, and maintaining at least a six-inch gap from the ground for effective moisture management. When done correctly, this upgrade can enhance your home's visual appeal and durability.
Yes, new wood siding can sometimes be installed over existing siding if the original material is in excellent condition and the structure is sound. This approach requires careful evaluation of the current siding, consideration of the added weight, and adherence to clearance and moisture control guidelines. Proper installation ensures a durable upgrade and improved curb appeal.
