In 1986 John Gallagher had one goal – to provide top quality exterior remodeling products and workmanship at a reasonable price along with incredible service before and after the job. Exterior Designers Inc started with and maintains that philosophy and mission.
"I requested quotes and met with a number of companies. By far, I enjoyed meeting with John. He was informative and thorough at our meeting. Given the information provided, and our own research, I also felt as though our values matched up nicely. So much so, that we planned on using EDI services, given the quote was reasonable. However, we were never given our quote. We were strung along by a series of emails, and then received no more responses. I have tried many times to reach out for the quote, and after that, to inquire as to what happened. Again, no response at all. Now, after waiting so long, we have to start the entire process over again, and as it is October, we essentially have no hope of getting a new roof this season. I really hope our current last through the winter. This is entire unprofessional behavior, and I grow so weary of companies that make promises and do not fulfil them. We should at the very least be treated with enough respect to be given an explanation as to why they cannot or will not perform the work."

"Our experience with A&D was excellent. After 5 quotes (A&D being the first) and reading through the contracts, not only was A&D's the most direct, but they were also the most honest. No hidden fees or language. Our representative was easy to talk to, made last-minute adjustments before the work started, and was available throughout the project. Each crew that came to complete the work were professional, kind, and had top notch skills. They were very tidy too- and cared about my three dogs’ safety. The project manager addressed all my questions and completed a thorough inspection with me post project. The warranty on work is best in class as well. I am going to use A&D for my future projects. We strongly recommend A&D. You will not be disappointed in price, quality, installation, warranty, or communication (verbal, email, text, and phone). Thank you A&D. PS. I love my dryer vent."

Dryvit pricing hinges on three things: your home’s square footage, the layout’s complexity, and the finish you pick. Because those variables differ from house to house, contractors quote Dryvit on a per-project basis rather than a flat rate. Ask a licensed installer for a detailed estimate and breakdown of materials and labor. Professional installation is crucial—done right, Dryvit resists cracking and delivers the long-term energy efficiency it’s known for.
Keep stucco looking sharp by rinsing it with a garden hose a few times a year and walking the exterior for hairline cracks. Skip high-powered pressure washers—they can force water behind the finish. Start hosing at the bottom, work upward, and let gravity rinse the wall clean. If you spot cracks or chips, seal them right away to block moisture. Quick fixes and gentle cleaning go a long way toward preserving color and structure.
Think of stucco as a full-service siding and parging as a quick jacket for your foundation. Stucco covers entire walls, adds curb appeal, and offers some insulation. Parging is a thin coat on the lower portion of a masonry wall that mainly seals out moisture and pests. It’s protective, not decorative. If you need a complete exterior finish, go with stucco; if you just need to shore up a foundation, parging does the trick.
Stucco’s biggest enemies are moisture and movement. Water that seeps behind a poorly sealed wall can cause stains, bubbling, mold, and the white powder called efflorescence. Shifting soil or impact can crack the surface, letting in even more moisture. Catch small cracks early and keep sealant lines intact to head off bigger repairs. A quick yearly inspection and prompt patching usually keep these issues from snowballing.
In harsh climates, synthetic stucco—or EIFS—usually outperforms traditional mixes. The layered foam-and-finish system sheds water, flexes with temperature swings, and resists cracking better than cement-based stucco. You’ll pay a premium up front, but the added durability can cut future repair bills and improve energy efficiency. Ask a local pro which formulation handles your region’s heat, cold, or heavy rain the best.
If stucco isn’t the right fit, you have plenty of other siding choices. Vinyl is usually the budget pick and needs minimal upkeep. Fiber-cement and engineered wood blend durability with a wood-grain look. Brick or stone veneer costs more but delivers classic curb appeal and great longevity. Metal—including steel and aluminum—stands up well to fire and insects. Compare costs, maintenance needs, and local climate before settling on the best match for your home.
