Pacific Exteriors LLC is the exterior remodeling contractor you can trust for all of your siding, roofing and painting needs in the Greater Seattle and surrounding areas. We offer personal consultations, custom design services, and high-quality materials backed with best in the industry warranties to upgrade your home’s exterior and protect what matters most! Pacific Exteriors LLC is a BBB A+ business, Owens Corning Platinum, and James Hardie Master Elite company. We are a proud winner of the annual James Hardie Presidents Club Award, the last 6 years in a row.
"I’m not quite sure what is taking so long to get any updates from this company. I’ve been waiting for an update on the siding being painted, touch ups they missed to be fixed, have their interior team fix the walls their crew punched nails through the wall, broke the frame of our kitchen window, and pick up the materials that have been blocking our driveway since the start of the project. It took them three weeks from the initial pick up date I was given for their team to pick up and confirm that the honey bucket had been taken from our property. Of course I had to call them to follow up and actually get it picked up. All of this to basically summarize that if you want your siding done in a timely manner and to work with a cohesive team that values communication and their customers as much as theirs salesman Brad told us they do, then find another company aside from Pacific Exteriors."

"RT Total Lawn made the process from inquiry to installation easy. Sara responded to my Angie’s request, answered a few questions, then came out with owner Rafael to do an estimate. We discussed drip vs in ground irrigation, agreed on a fair price then the work was scheduled and completed quickly. When done, RT’s crew did a thorough clean up and Rafael and Sara came back to do a walk through. I am 100% satisfied and look forward to working them on other projects. Great to find a local business that does quality work and cares about customer satisfaction. Highly recommend!"

To determine the number of trusses you need, measure the full length of the roof ridge, convert that length to inches, and divide by 24 (the standard on-center spacing). Always round up to give the structure full support and add a few extras for overhangs or complex rooflines. This approach keeps your roof strong and code-compliant.
Start by measuring the span—the full width of the roof’s underside—then note the pitch, or how many inches the roof rises for every 12-inch run. Accurate span and pitch numbers help your supplier size each truss correctly, saving lumber and ensuring the roof performs as it should. Your roofing pro will be able to provide accurate measurements for you.
A three-person crew with the right lifting equipment can set a full set of trusses in a single day. Complex roof shapes or limited crane access can stretch that timeline, so talk with your roofer about the schedule and whether you’ll need to stay elsewhere during installation. Careful planning keeps the job safe and on target.
Trusses are prefabricated off-site, arrive ready to lift into place, and install faster and more consistently than site-built rafters. Rafters are custom-cut on-site by skilled carpenters, so they take longer and cost more in labor. Knowing the trade-offs—speed and uniformity versus on-site customization—helps you pick the best framing method for your roof.
If you’re not a licensed roofer, hire a pro. Installing trusses requires heavy equipment, safety gear, and code knowledge that most DIYers lack. While doing it yourself might trim labor costs, one mis-set truss can lead to expensive repairs or voided warranties. A certified contractor installs trusses quickly, follows code, and protects your home’s value.
