Since 1994, Air Tite Exteriors has provided homeowners in Maryland and D.C with top quality, factory-direct products, professionally installed by factory trained installers. Locally-owned. GAF Master Elite roofing certification.
"I recently purchased a new home that was in need of a new roof and it didn't take long to realize that the Roofing Pups team would be the best folks for the job! Shawn came out to conduct an estimate and inspect the property, which was more than anyone else did that came out to provide an estimate. At the end of the appointment, he provided the most detailed inspection report, detailed the packages available, and helped me determine what would best fit my needs. After scheduling the roofing job, Shawn remained in constant contact and the same is true for the entire team. I received regular communication regarding every aspect of the project including delays due to weather. The crew completed the job in 1 day as promised and sent tons of photos along the way. The customer service, care, and quality at Roofing Pups is unmatched and they make you feel comfortable with a process that can seem daunting. I'd highly recommend you allow them to service all your roofing needs!"

"The quality of work was fine, the way they handle it was not fine. They set me up for three days at Thursday, Friday and Saturday. They come in and work at Thursday and Friday night. They told me that they had a big job that they have and that they would not be back on Saturday. They delayed coming back to the following day. In order for them to do their job, I had to move all the furniture in my house away from the baseboards and way from the wall so I have rooms after rooms after rooms of furniture. Then when I talk to him, I was trying to delay a day because I had something I had to do and instead of delaying the day, they delayed it until the following Monday which was this last month. I'm just now getting to where i can put my curtains back up and everything else but the problem was they came when I was not here on Monday. They insisted on the $1500. They said they wanted an extra hundred because they moved furniture and I had agreed to the hundred if they moved furniture which they did not. When my wife pay and told them that she is not going to send a positive review, they said "I don't care"."

"I am writing to formally express my deep dissatisfaction with the recent retaining wall replacement project completed by John Krause Construction (JKC) at my property. After reading positive reviews and receiving an estimate that, although over my budget, seemed reasonable for the work involved, I made the decision to hire JKC. Unfortunately, this has proven to be a significant mistake, and I am left extremely disappointed with both the quality of work and the overall experience. Here are the main issues I encountered: 1. Unprofessional Behavior: The crew exhibited unacceptable behavior while working on my property. Not only did I witness them disposing of bodily fluids on-site, but they were also disrespectful and dismissive. when I raised concerns no response was received. I now smell urine when entering and exiting my garage. 2. Unresponsive Ownership: I have attempted to reach out to the owner multiple times to address these concerns and resolve the issues, but my messages have been met with silence. This lack of communication is incredibly frustrating and has only added to my disappointment. The owner refused to speak on the phone since the owner was made aware of the call being recorded. 3. Property Damage: During the construction process, my property was left damaged in multiple areas. This included e.g., landscaping destruction, equipment damage. Personal crew members vehicles being driven through my yard leaving deep tire marks damage. 4. Subpar Quality of Work: Despite the high cost of the project, the final result does not meet the standards outlined in the estimate or contract. No proper grading was completed. Every time it rains pools of water sits in front and behind the wall. The response received was. “we have passed all inspections. There will be some water pooling while it is settling still. Plus the fact of the hard rain today, it will happen.” The wall has been completed for 2 months. Given the extensive problems, stress and anxiety I have faced. I do not recommend John Krause Construction."

The cost of fixing one damaged piece of wood siding will depend on several factors. If there's a minor crack or hole, you could spend under $10 on the wood putty. If you still have paint or staining supplies on hand, you may only pay that cost to repair your wood siding. If you need to replace an entire board, you’ll spend anywhere from $1 to $30 on the materials and an extra $2 to $5 on labor.
Most homeowners' insurance policies cover siding damaged by a covered peril, they only pay for the affected section. If the new boards don’t match the rest of the house, you’ll have to pay for additional labor to blend everything in. Review your policy or call your agent for the fine print.
It's time to replace your wood siding when you notice signs of deterioration, such as rotting, warping, peeling, or visible cracks. If your siding no longer effectively protects your home—evidenced by higher energy bills, moisture damage, or frequent repairs—it has likely reached the end of its lifespan. Replacing it ensures lasting protection and optimal performance.
Popular alternatives to wood siding include vinyl, brick veneer, stucco, steel, stone veneer, and composite siding. These materials offer benefits such as increased durability, lower maintenance, and various design options, making them suitable for different climates and lifestyles. Exploring these alternatives can help you find a siding option that meets your performance needs and aesthetic preferences.
Expect wood siding to serve you for 20 to 40 years, depending on the species, climate, and level of upkeep. With routine sealing or painting, those boards protect your home and maintain high curb appeal for decades. Consistent upkeep—such as painting, staining, and repairing minor damages—prevents deterioration from UV exposure, moisture, and pests, thereby extending the lifespan and performance of your siding.
