"United Home Experts does not stand behind the quality of their work, which in the case of a 20K+ project that they did for us, involved a significant oversight that rendered that work pointless. I think -- and other contractors we have brought in to look at the problem think -- that the oversight was significant enough to demonstrate negligence on their part. We hired United Home Experts to replace the roofing and the section of our deck over one of our garage bays, where water leaks had caused damage to the ceiling and walls of the garage. The sole purpose of the 20K + project was to prevent further damage due to leaks. Because of their failure to properly flash one of the walls adjoining the deck (they flashed another, longer wall), within three years, water had leaked through the wall and caused more significant damage than what they had been brought in to fix. The 20K+ was wasted. United Home Experts has refused to take any responsibility for failing to deliver on what they had promised. I have attached photos of the ceiling of our garage and the wood rot behind it. In one of the photos, the rot is so severe that the wood is completely worn through. Again, this happened within three years of contracting United Home Experts to do the work. I also attached a photo of the poor workmanship of their deck re-installation -- splitting in the joists that they had just installed. I caught the problem and made them reinstall the joists but didn't catch their failure to flash one of the walls adjoining the deck. In general, I found the company to be extremely unresponsive throughout the installation process and uncooperative in attempting to resolve this issue. The representative handling the account has been ducking me, repeatedly failing to call back within reasonable time frames (or most recently, even within a time frame he had set). We hope that United Home Experts will change course and attempt to respond reasonably to the damage that their oversight caused. The President of the company claims to be a "faith-based entrepreneur." Whichever faith that happens to be, his company reflects poorly on it, at least in our case. P.S. I expect that in attempting to respond to this review, United Home Experts will blame the installers of the original deck (since that was their explanation to me directly). They completely replaced the section of the deck and roofing where the leak took place, so that argument does not make any sense."

"Avoid! Capital?s quote was significantly more than others but they stated it was due to ?quality? of work and reputation. Lies! The project (yard drainage, pavers) took months and is still a full mess! Attached are photos- I was gaslighted stating that I was ?impossible to please? and would ?never be happy?- judge the work for yourself! Project was over $40,000 and this is what they found acceptable! If you still choose them (?) then make sure an attorney reads anything you sign as every minuscule detail must be written or they will not take any responsibility! And read financing terms very carefully as they scroll through the contract speaking but the content does NOT match what they spew! Then the threats start demanding approval for the terrible, incomplete job. You?ll be ignored and ghosted once they get their money after placing in writing the modifications that will (not) occur!"

"Signed contract on May 8 for deck build.On May 12 rep came to my office to collect deposit of apprx $13,000. He said project team meeting on Wed & would update me then on start date etc. On Fri May 16 I had to reach out to him. He wrote the team had met & materials were ordered. An hour later he wrote back that he was misinformed & that his boss was going to call me next week. Despite this, dep check cashed. On Mon 5. 20 rep wrote back that they had forgotten certain costs & to proceed it would be $8,000 more. Not a typo. $8,000 more. No apology. Ridiculous, contract rescinded. I wrote that he could return my deposit at my office just as he had collected it. On Wednesday the 21st I got a text from "Tom," presumably the owner/boss, saying he would "drop a check in the mail" to my address. Today is May 30th, Friday, and still no check. Check at a minimum should have been overnighted. They owe me interest not to mention the deposit to hire a contractor who will honor contract. Bad."

"Pierre construction is Awesome!!! If you’re looking to have someone to do your next project, look no further. I spent quite a bit of time interviewing and getting quotes for a major 2 story deck project for my house which included some intense structural improvements to my house as well, since some of the existing columns where in tough shape. I’m so glad that I picked Dave Pierre and his great crew to do this for me! Dave’s price was very reasonable and he was very much on top of all details. He bent over backwards to make sure that I was happy with every step of the project. His crew of over 12 years was also very skilled and often had discussions about challenges to make sure the details where the best that they could be before proceeding on the the next phases. As you can see from the attached video of the 2nd floor, the results are fantastic and I’m enjoying my new space immensely. "

Igor's Construction was born out of a IGOR's Siding, registered by the owner in 2003 in Philadelphia, PA, initially specializing in remodeling and siding installation or removal. As the company grew, adding up years of experience, our area of specialty expanded accordingly. Realizing that while covering different areas of the construction business, the need for a change of name became more appropriate. As the economy of our country began to struggle, so did the homeowner. Realizing that the energy preservation, weatherization and appearance of environmentally friendly products was the cue for the modern home improvement practices, Igor's Construction has adapted accordingly. In a decade of doing business, we are proud to state that we have not had a dissatisfied customer.
"We had a great experience with Igor and his team. We hired IGOR Construction to remove the old siding on our two-story house & install new vinyl siding. Igor gave a quote on the spot, which he stuck to and never tried to upsell us then or later. His team showed up on time and worked 12 hour days to get our job done in between rain storms (I was also impressed that they took legally required breaks). The job was finished in the time frame that Igor promised and looks great. Vinyl siding can look messy because the pieces have to overlap in places but they worked hard to make the front and side of the house look good (and it does). . They also left the worksite spotless - ground clean and everything reattached and put back in place. They delivered everything exactly as promised. Would hire them again!"

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.
