What Is Fiber Cement Siding?

Fiber Cement Siding is a type of siding plank made up of mostly sand and cement, with some wood fibers. We personally install James Hardie Fiber Cement Siding, as they are the industry-leading manufactures. Hardie siding is some of the most beautiful siding there is (in my humble opinion). It provides the aesthetic of wood plank, but is actually more flame resistant than any other siding!

What Is Vertical Siding and How Can I Find It?

Vertical siding is what we call board and batten siding. You can choose a wide variety of manufactures and materials for this style of siding. However, we personally like Certainteed vinyl or CedarBoard board and batten siding. We commonly use Certainteed’s monogram vinyl siding for any vinyl siding projects we do here on Long Island.

What Types Of Siding Do You Install?

We install James Hardie siding, vinyl siding, and Certainteed Cedar Impression siding. These are some of the largest names in the siding industry, and for good reason. With great warranties and long-lasting products, we’re proud of the products we install.

What’s The Difference Between Dutch Lap and Clapboard Siding?

Dutch lap and clapboard siding are similar, but the difference is that the Dutch Lap Siding has a concave, and curves out to give it a shadow and more detailed look. In contrast, clapboard siding offers a simpler, more traditional look with subtle shadow lines. Clapboard siding is seen as less “decorative”, so it’s seen more frequently on traditional style homes. Both styles offer resistance from the elements, and are low maintenance. However, Dutch lap siding costs slightly more due to the details.

What Types Of Gutters Do You Recommend For My Home?

We offer half-round copper and galvanized steel gutters in 5″ and 6″ styles, and K-style aluminum gutters in 5″ and 6″ styles. However, our recommendation changes from home to home. Copper gutters look much nicer on traditional style homes here on Long Island. Galvanized steel gutters will last longer than aluminum and provide a silver look, which is quite gorgeous. Aluminum gutters are the most cost-effective option and can be equipped with leaf gutter guards.
