Get matched with top metal siding: repairer or partially replacers in Vernonia, OR

"Everything was completed to my satisfaction. They did a very good job in some of the difficult areas. For example, painting around thick vines growing on porch columns and beam. Everything I pointed out in the inspection was taken care of promptly with no excuses. Communication was good with everyone involved. I would have no qualms about using company again or recommending to others. Following are a couple of minor issues we had. A few minor issues: We had 3 gallons of left over trim paint. That seemed like an error in estimating amount needed. On the other hand, there was only 1/2 gal. of main color left which is what I would expect for trim also. My hot tub was unplugged before they started because it was empty. The crew plugged it in when they finished without checking with me. It was several hours before I noticed it. I had to reset the heater unit but no damage was done."

"Eric did a great job while giving me my quote. He was very knowledgeable and found some issues with my siding that I hadnt noticed yet. He showed me the product that DaBella was offering and the differences in other siding materials. He worked very hard to make the siding replacement quote affordable and fit all of our needs. I cannot wait to get the new siding."

"I don't usually write reviews online, but in this situation I cannot help myself. I was blown away by Mark's responsiveness and work ethic. I venture to say that Mark is faster, smarter, more efficient, and more detail-oriented than most any contractor. I was in a desperate situation (had to fire another contractor for unfortunate reasons and NEEDED our only tub replaced and bathroom tiled so my fiancé could use it to recover from surgery in a few days). Mark problem-solved quickly, told me to buy a new tub, and came over Friday at 5 after his regular work day to help me get the tub replaced in under 2 hours. After asking his wife first (classy), he offered to work over the weekend to get the job done. We worked side by side to knock out the bathroom in 2 very long days. Being a new home owner, I was jazzed to learn how to tile and Mark was an excellent leader and teacher. Honestly, I could go on and on. This guy is for real. He's professional, skilled, and efficient as all get out. I'm sure he isn't perfect, but I think you'd be very hard pressed to find a better skilled or more enjoyable contractor in the area. "

"Highest recommendation! We have had C & C do repairs and full roof replacement at several properties over time. They have always been on time, courteous, priced well and professional. C & C has repaired roofs on short notice and been very straightforward about condition/ replacement need. They even advised us to hold off on replacement after a leak, as repairs would be good for several years more. They are responsive to calls and clean up after the work was excellent. When full replacement was necessary, the work was done as scheduled and the estimated cost was fully explained and accurate."

"Excellent service from start to finish, we are very pleased with our new siding and all of the additional details we asked for were included. We used Clear Vision for our new roof too and were also impressed with their service. Thank you!"

"We were impressed with the professionalism and the look of the house when they were done. They provided any paint product you preferred. We decided on Benjamin Moore cuz we liked the specific gray color they offered. The crew showed up on time and we're done in a day and a half. The quote included some trim on the outside around the garage end roof Peaks that we had repainted green because the old beige color was fading. They also touched up corner of the living room ceiling strip where I had splashed gold it's when we last painted saving us from having to repaint the whole ceiling and the match was perfect. Also repainted the back of the metal front door which was old and dirty looking and the bottom of the fireplace which also needed freshening up from its dirty white color. I asked them to cleanup or touch up some previous paint left or from an old paint job and they did so so on that but I'm not complaining. For the price, lack of family inconvenience, and overall finished product we could not have done better. They were considerably cheaper than two of our beds which made my wife nervous but she needn't have been, they did a great job."

"Work not started yet, but will include all-new Hardie replacement siding and door-window casings, also perhaps gutters. The work is defined, priced, contracted and financed. Very pleased so far with the project process, warranties and sales representative Forrest Seamons (fseamons@dabella.us, 503-396-1521)."

"Ken bid the work in the winter after doing a very brief walk through of the house. We told him it could be out a ways as we had to get the contractor in to replace the woodwork first. We contacted him in the summer to do the work. I had asked at the time if he needed to make adjustments to the bid in light of the season and workload change but he kept to the original bid. We asked if he needed us to move furniture or prep the house beforehand and he said no. When the work was completed we were out of town so we had a relative let the contractors in. Ken was here the first day but not for the duration of the project and when we got home there were some quality issues some damaged furniture items and mess left by the painters so we contacted Ken to see if he would mind doing a walk through with us. There were drips in high visibility places and areas where it looked like the paint had partially dried so brush strokes where pretty bad. They also had gotten large quantities of paint on the carpet in several rooms and had missed some items altogether.

When I contacted Ken (via email) he was very quick to respond but immediately got defensive and acted frustrated that I had emailed him on a weekend (apparently he was away with his wife at the time). I told him I had just sent a note while it was fresh in my mind and he could contact us when he was back. At which point he called out that he had given me a good deal and if I didn't want to pay him I didn't have to...I had never mentioned or intended to hold payment and told him so. I just asked that he see the issues and correct what was fixable (keeping in mind we told him we were not going to make him replace broken items, repair carpet or redo the shoddy work). I just wanted him to assess what I was seeing and fix the drip marks and missed items.

He continued to respond blaming the fact that the trim install was poor, that we hadn't moved furniture and that he had cut is a deal in peak season (at which point I reminded him that we asked if he needed to revise his bid or have us prep the house). In the end he sent the job staff out to fix things but I would not recommend using Ken again. He is quick to respond and gives a very competitive price but I firmly believe you get what you pay for. I've worked with Ken previously and have always thought highly of him but this experience was disappointing. In the end I paid him for the full cost of the work even though he forgot to include the cost of painting several doors in his final invoice and the work was shoddy. I have since been sanding and redoing trim areas where the paint quality was poor and have opted to paint out a child's bedroom myself as my work is better than what Ken's painting provided. I will not be calling him again and although I'm often asked for referrals for contractors, I won't be giving his name out.

"They did a very good job, and they were careful not to damage siding or surrounding landscaping.   Cleaned up the work area each day, and upon completion left the area looking better than before the work started.   The best part -- no more leaking water in our basement.   I waited to write this review until we had been through a couple period of heavy rain.   Thanks Q!

"Lifetime Windows & Doors were great. We started thinking about replacing our aging aluminum frame windows a few years ago. We got visited by a door-to-door replacement window company and got a good quote. However, the windows were very “chunky” compared to our sleek aluminum windows. So we got a quote from the big replacement window company and got sticker shock. We then found that Milgard had replacement vinyl windows that we could get in black capstone (both internal and external color), but the replacement company never got back to us with a quote – even after many back and forth communications. We then found Lifetime Windows and Doors. Morgan and Lindsay were head and shoulders above all other vendors we worked with regarding communication. When we found out that Milgard was delayed with the black windows we wanted, they found that Simonton had a similar window and got us in their queue. Yes, it took a while to get windows, but Tony and Hugo did a great job, installing all 17 windows. We’re super happy with Lifetime Windows and Doors."
