"If I could do minus on the stars I would give a -5 stars. This company is horrible and Skylar Jump is rude beyond beleif. He came out and did the bid for the job, and he told me what it would cost me. 1/2 down and the other 1/2 upon completion of the job. They installed new drywall but did not make it flush at the corners, leaving big gaps and putting in large gouges. He and his crew left garbage all over the yard, stole materials and left my house compromised and exposed to the elements. Also damaged some of my vintage furniture from the Hoquiam Castle. So no replacing those. He was calling me and his crew inappropriate names and telling me that I don't listen, constantly interrupting me and told me that my family member who is an expert in siding doesn't know anything and started dising people. Also will not give you a receipt for money paid and will not give you a break down of the job. Also, when picking up materials from Home Depot, he will charge materials for another job onto your account. Do not hire this company unless you want to punish yourself and lose your money."

Modernized Exteriors is Washington’s Best Decking ,Siding, Windows, and roofing Residential contractor. We specialize in quality and customer service and we take pride in every job we do.

"Modernized Exteriors seem to have built a decent deck for a decent price but in a somewhat sloppy and dishonest way. First, they left hundreds of pieces of debris including over 100 nails, screws, and other fasteners, and hundreds of pieces of the old deck lying around, including some pieces over six feet long, many with embedded nails sticking out. For months, nearly every time my daughters went out to play they came back with a handful of nails and screws. Second, the old deck had a notch through which the gutter downspout passed to reach the drain in the ground. Instead of cutting a notch for the downspout, they just tossed it behind a bush allowing the gutter to empty directly onto the deck. They promised a 12-month warranty, saying they'd come out to correct any defects. When I mentioned the disconnected gutter they initially said they'd fix it, but then ignored my follow-up messages when I asked them to actually do it. So they may not honor their promises."

Shed, barn or playhouse building services FAQs

With proper maintenance, shipping container homes can provide decades of service comparable to traditional construction. The steel framework offers natural resistance to common housing threats, including insects, fire, and mold. 

Regular maintenance should include rust prevention, exterior coating renewal, and inspection of connection points between containers. Quality foundations with proper drainage significantly extend lifespan by preventing ground contact deterioration. With appropriate care and protection from the elements, these structures remain serviceable for 25 years or more.

When properly engineered and anchored, container homes demonstrate impressive resilience against severe weather conditions. The steel construction that withstands ocean shipping provides inherent structural strength against wind forces. Appropriate insulation systems manage temperature extremes while preventing condensation issues common in metal structures. 

In hurricane-prone regions, professional anchoring systems and reinforced connections between containers create a unified structure. However, comprehensive weather protection requires quality windows, doors, and roofing systems beyond the basic container shell.

Securing conventional financing for container homes presents greater challenges than for traditional construction. Many mainstream lenders have limited experience with alternative building methods and may have concerns about market valuation and resale potential. Construction loans or portfolio lending from smaller financial institutions often provide more viable paths. 

Presenting comprehensive architectural plans, professional engineering documentation, and clear permitting approvals strengthens your application. Some homeowners utilize personal loans, home equity from existing property, or specialized alternative housing financing programs to fund their container home projects.

Regulatory hurdles represent a primary obstacle, as many jurisdictions have limited provisions for container-based structures in their building codes. Technical challenges include creating effective insulation systems for metal walls, managing moisture and condensation, and implementing appropriate structural reinforcement around openings. Logistical considerations involve transporting containers to the building site, especially in remote locations with limited access. 

Additionally, creating comfortable, functional living spaces within the dimensional constraints of shipping containers requires thoughtful design approaches. Addressing these challenges early in the planning process helps avoid costly complications during construction.
