"We have just replaced all the windows in our home using Power Home Remodeling to replace 15 year old windows with Pella Symphony Series windows. Our experience from the sales and information meeting, pre-installation, installation, and final review and inspection were excellent and informative. All of our questions were answered and demonstration of window use were great."

"I needed four new exterior exhaust vents, some vinyl siding popped back into place, a shingle replaced, and a ceiling hook installed. Two of the vents, vinyl, and the shingle were about 16+ feet up, and the other two vents were about 10 feet up. I mostly wanted to get someone out here to do it because I didn't want to buy a $200+ extendable ladder to do it myself. I was contacted and given pricing fairly quickly. Which at $55/hr with no minimum of 3-4 hours, beats the other handymen I've gotten quotes for. He arrived, and was very polite and friendly. Absolutely great person in general. He jumped right into the work, and I wasnt given an estimate after he understood the work needed. but given quotes by others and over the phone, I imagined it to be maybe like 2 hours (or 3 with a supply run), so I didn't pay it any mind. It took 4.5 hours, though I believe the handyman doing the maintenance was experienced, he seemed to definitely be new to the company and had to call back about certain procedures. At one point the professional asked for my help during the work day, or else he was going to need either someone else or different tools (which when you're paying hourly, the meters running, so I may as well help). They didn't bring a 8-10 foot ladder, so the professional borrowed mine. When moving their 20ft ladder, there was nearly a point where I pointed out the end of ladder was starting to pull up my shingles while he was trying to finagle the positioning of this ladder. The work on the vents is certainly caulked, but the vinyl siding around it is questionable. I don't think there will be a problem with any of the vents moving forward, and certainly functional. However, the vinyl edging around the vents (to essentially make them look pretty, and maybe prevent water) was torn away when pulled out which I don't think was necessary. The rest of the vinyl siding and the shingle was repaired, and due to the clock ticking, I decided to do the ceiling hook and light repositioning. When given the final invoice, I wanted to pay with Credit Card, it wasn't until as I was paying that I was presented with a 3.5% charge for using Credit Card, that isn't on their original pricing sheet given to me by email. Overall, The handyman was experienced though new, I received no estimate in the beginning, I was surprised at how long it took, quality was very average, professionalism was good at times and terrible in others. But the work did get done, and I don't think Ill have a problem with the work down the road. They do have one of the best prices out there, but it took long enough that it didnt matter at that point. Additionally, a surprise 3.5% upcharge for credit card is kind of obnoxious. Given the opportunity again, I would probably someone else."

"We have an 1976 contemporary era home with original cedar siding. I had a hard time finding someone who had experience doing repair work on such expensive and delicate material until I found Vail-Syde Construction. Ruston was an absolute professional and pleasure to work with. He showed up when he said he would, didn’t try to upsell me, was able to source the cedar siding which is not readily available and does top quality work in a timely manner. He and his crew put our house back together beautifully and we are thrilled to have found such a great company to work with. I have hired many subcontractors for our home renovation over the last year and Ruston is a stand out. I plan to use them in the future for all our siding repairs and more."

"They did a great job! My roof looks great! Reliable and kept me well informed about everything. They kept cost in mind and cleaned up nicely after themselves. Serge even came out late to tarp the roof until it could get repaired so that I didnâ t have any further damage to the house waiting for the roof. They were very nice to work with. Great people. I canâ t say enough good things about them!"

FAQs for wood shake or composite roofing installation and replacement projects in Waxhaw, NC

Cedar shakes and wood shingles might seem similar, but they have some important differences. Cedar shakes are hand-split, giving them a unique, textured appearance that adds rustic charm to your roof. They're great for homeowners who want a distinctive look. Wood shingles, conversely, are machine-made, providing a smooth, uniform appearance for a more modern look. Shakes tend to be more expensive due to the craftsmanship involved but offer exceptional beauty and resilience.

A well-maintained cedar shake roof can last up to 60 years. However, factors like severe weather and improper ventilation can reduce its lifespan. You should consider replacing your roof if you notice persistent leaks, visible water damage, curling or splitting shakes, moss growth, rot, or missing shakes. Regular inspections can help you determine when it's time for a replacement.

When hiring a roofing contractor for your cedar shake roof, asking the right questions is important. Make sure they are fully certified and have extensive experience with cedar installations. Verify that their team is licensed, bonded, and insured. Ask for details about the materials they use, such as the type of underlayment and fasteners, and how they ensure proper ventilation. Getting multiple written estimates can help you compare options and choose a contractor who offers quality workmanship at a fair price.
