"5 months after the job is done, front part of the roof is now leaking where we had issues before. Checked into possible hail damage. Insurance adjuster says we have damage, and shingles are already visibly worn because they **are a poor quality shingles** Said there are places where the nails are already conning up, damaging the shingles, too. Should not be happening on a new roof. Buyer beware. Research what shingles they tell you they are using to verify quality and verify you are getting what you were promised. I believe we got what was promised and what we paid for, but was not knowledgeable enough and did not do my research to realize the promised product was not very good. Have now read through GAF warranty info and learned that there are very few instances in which they will actually do anything to help the client. In fact, if you make a claim, and they decide it is not their fault, they will charge you $500. Avoid GAF shingles! My main disappointment with workmanship was I found a bunch of nails in my gutters and quite a few in my driveway afterward. Just did not do a thorough job of cleaning up after themselves. Also, they had to pull some of the siding off to lay the rubber roof. It was not reattached well so started falling off when we had some winds afterward. This is the first time I have ever had to hire a roofer. Maybe my expectations were just too high. Not looking forward to having to do this all over again now thanks to the hail. But glad that it was discovered and will have to be redone knowing that there were problems already popping up."

"Scamming a senior citizen is what Justin Scaduto did to me. We had a contract for a shingle roof replacement $17,000, remove and replace solar panels $7,000, and vinyl siding $16,000. I paid $20,000 when the contract was signed. Work to begin within 30 days. 11 weeks later the solar panel crew showed up to start but needed $3500 to start which I paid. After the roof was completed a week later, I had to contact the Solar panel company to have the panels replaced and charged another $3500.Then Justin told me he was not going to do the siding. I paid $20,000 for the roof even though we had a contract for $17,000. Justin scammed me out of $3000. BEWARE OF THIS STORM CHASER CONTRACTOR"

Vinyl siding is almost always more affordable than wood. Its materials are inexpensive and installation is straightforward, making it more cost-effective than wood, which calls for high-quality lumber and more labor-intensive work. Keep in mind that wood offers a warm, classic look and, with proper maintenance, can enhance curb appeal and resale value in a way that vinyl may not.
Well-maintained wood siding can serve your home for 40 years or more. Routine care is the best way to maximize its lifespan. Simply wash it gently, seal or stain it every few years, and replace any boards that show signs of rot or insect damage. Touch-up paint or stain helps keep UV rays and moisture at bay, while prompt repairs prevent minor issues from spreading.
Covering a 1,500-square-foot house with wood siding costs an average of $12,500, assuming professional installation and mid-range materials. You can reduce the price by choosing a less expensive species or tackling minor prep work yourself, but weigh the savings against the time you’ll invest and the risk of mistakes. Hiring a vetted professional usually delivers a tighter fit, a longer lifespan, and warranty protection.
Swapping vinyl for wood is feasible as long as your home’s framing and sheathing meet current building code requirements. A contractor will strip the vinyl, inspect the substrate, install a breathable house wrap, and maintain a clearance of at least six inches between the new boards and the ground to prevent moisture from accumulating. Because wood and vinyl behave differently, budget extra for the transition. When done right, the upgrade adds rich character and can lift your home’s value.
In some cases, you can install new wood siding right over an existing layer, but only if the old material is flat, solid, and completely dry. Your contractor will first verify that the walls are structurally sound and that adding weight will not violate the code. They’ll also pay close attention to drainage planes and ventilation to prevent moisture from being trapped. If the existing siding shows signs of rot or warping, complete removal is the wiser choice, even though it incurs additional labor costs of roughly $7 to $13 per square foot.
