Comparing Siding Companies in Richmond VA
Good siding companies have a few things in common:
- They look behind the siding. They ask about leaks, soft spots and stains, not just color.
- They put it in writing. The quote lists material, trim, wall repairs and tear-off.
- They talk about flashing. Windows, doors and roof lines are where most leaks start.
- They explain permits. Especially in historic districts, where siding replacement needs a permit.
- They're easy to reach. If it's hard to get them on the phone now, it won't get easier later.
