Any Siding Pros on here? UPDATED - PIP's
We are in the middle of getting some quotes. We have a 1660 sq ft Colonial with a one-car oversized detached garage.
We got a quote yest for $7000 and that includes labor, all materials, clean-up, etc.
They gave us siding samples and there were three grades. Anyone know about any of them?
Variform
Royal
Crane (this one would be %500 more so we assume better quality than the other two)
Also, this is for 12 ft pieces (not seamless which is 25 ft I think). What is the difference since the width of my home is 32 ft????? Less seams obviously but it still wouldn't be seamless either way. I don't get it.
So we thought that quote was ver low. We have a feeling the other quotes are going to be a bit higher.
I just don't want to go with lower quote just to save money because we want a good job done.
Any info would be great. Thanks!
UPDATED: so we went with the co above and went with the Crane siding for $500 more. It came out great! Below in the last post are some mid-progession pics. We sided right over our old wood siding. I have finished pics but not loaded yet. They even threw in scallops for over the front door and scallops over the garage for free. They did everything I asked and even moved a bunch of chopped wood fro mteh back of the garage so they could side back there.
