"This was an extremely large painting project that began in late March and finished up in Mid-June--nine-plus weeks in length. To go along with such a large project--and large expense--were a bit of nerves too. The church had been completely painted approx. 5 years ago by another contractor and the coating was already failing in a big way. Cyr Painting was highly recommended by one of the church Trustees who had Cyr Painting paint their own home one year earlier and were thoroughly impressed with their professionalism and quality. Cyr's formula to address the deteriorating paint was to completely strip off all old paint and build up a new foundation. A labor-intensive project. To reduce costs, Cyr used a spray-on paint stripper where they could to speed up paint removal. In the end, nearly all of the paint was removed, right down to bare wood. The bare clapboards were then sanded smooth with palm-sanders and the nails reset. A thinned coat of oil-based primer was applied. Next they filled any dents with an exterior wood putty and gave everything a quick sanding again. Wow, it was smooth! Then a full oil-based primer coat went on followed by two coats of a latex stain. A total of four coats of paint went on the church. At some point between coats of paint, they caulked around windows and clapboard ends. One window had some rotten wood along the window sill and vertical trim piece which they replaced and it blended right in. One of Cyr Painting's key assets is their employees. Extremely professional, polite, dedicated with a hint of being characters is a pretty good description. The two foremen or main "characters" are Ernie and Jeff. Two good loud-and-proud guys as well as the other painters on the team. And the owner, John Cyr, was super to work with. Extremely sincere and dedicated to doing the best job. Very mindful of the budget and even took steps towards the end of the project to stay close to the original estimate. With limited resources, the church greatly appreciated John Cyr's diligence in holding to the budget. As he said, his name and his company's name and reputation are on full display. All in all, we're very happy with the painting of our old and traditional New England church. Cyr Painting took the time and effort to ensure the church paint won't fail like the prior paint job. In fact, the New England paint representatives stopped by the church and said they would guarantee the paint due to all the preparations Cyr Painting had done. Do it right the first time and it will last. Highly, highly recommend Cyr Painting. One small reason why?... they even washed the windows, inside and outside before leaving. Not even the church has done that in a while. Jobsite was always clean and tidy too. Fantastic job. The church stands once again a proud and humble servant to the community and our Lord."

"One of the worst companies I have EVER dealt with in my life. Nothing but runaround, lies, and lack of accountability. They will tell you something over the phone, then when you follow-up, they will magically lose all records of prior conversations. I was told replacement windows would be ordered in June 2024 - never ordered. In January, ordered correctly with 4-6 week expedited delivery time quoted. Now in Feb, was told the windows would not be ready until end of March (total of nearly 11 weeks since order). Magically, they have no record of quoting me 4-6 weeks, though I have email records saying otherwise. Just a miserable company to do business with, would never recommend to any homeowner."

"Replacing a roof is not cheap - and it’s not exactly the most fun thing to throw a lot of money at (versus, say, a new bathroom) . AEM (Kevin B. in particular) made this not only painless, but even pleasant. We got three bids - Kevin B. from AEM was the only one that bothered to actually visit our house, meet with us and explain the process. The other bids were just emailed in, apparently using some imaging system that let them measure our rooftop. AEMs bid was not the cheapest of the three, but it was absolutely competitive with the other two - and, because of Kevin’s walking us through the process, we felt much more comfortable having them do the project. Communication as we were getting closer to the day was very good (I work at home - so I knew I’d have to take the day off given the noise). There were a few unavoidable weather delays - Kevin always kept me informed. On the actual day, the team was here early - as was Kevin - and the whole process was done in a day. Something really cool - they had to get into our yard through our neighbor’s back yard (with his permission, of course!) - as a gesture, they raked his leaves! They also cleaned our gutters while they were up there doing the roof. After the fact, the cleanup was perfect - our back yard was spotless! Kevin and his colleague also did some great work repairing our soffits. Anyhow - I don’t think we can recommend AEM highly enough - they care for their customers - and made this as painless as possible. We are very happy with the results. Thanks Kevin and team!"

The cost of Dryvit stucco varies depending on factors such as the size of your home, its design complexity, and the chosen finish options. Your stucco contractor can provide a precise quote based on the specifics and complexity of your project. Professional installation is crucial for maximizing the performance and ensuring the lasting durability of your stucco siding.
Maintaining your stucco is easy with a few simple steps. Periodically wash it with a garden hose, avoiding high-powered pressure washers that could damage the finish. Start from the bottom and spray upward, then rinse back down. Don't forget to regularly inspect your stucco for cracks or holes and repair them promptly to maintain its appearance.
The primary difference between stucco and parging lies in their purpose and application. Stucco is a full exterior wall finish that provides aesthetic appeal and insulation for your home. Parging, on the other hand, is a protective coating applied to foundations and lower walls to prevent moisture and pest infiltration. While parging focuses on structural protection, stucco offers a decorative and durable finish for entire walls.
Common issues with stucco include water absorption, which can lead to efflorescence— a white, powdery substance — cracking, and occasionally mold or stains in damp conditions. These problems often result from environmental factors or installation errors. Regular inspections and timely repairs can help keep your stucco in top shape and prevent costly damage.
The best type of stucco for extreme weather conditions is synthetic stucco. It offers enhanced durability and resistance to rapid temperature changes and extreme conditions. Synthetic stucco performs well in harsh climates, minimizing the risks of cracking and moisture penetration to ensure your home stays protected even in severe environmental conditions.
In addition to stucco, there are several alternative siding options to consider. These include metal, wood, brick, stone veneer, vinyl, and fiber cement siding. Each comes with unique benefits. For example, vinyl is cost-effective and low-maintenance, while wood provides a natural aesthetic. The best choice depends on your design preferences, durability needs, and maintenance considerations.
