He was referred by a relative who had worked with him, so we had a fair amount of trust in him from the start. We gave him $11,000 up front for the siding job. About a month later, we came home to find his work trailer and a building permit on our door. We thought he was going to begin the work the next day, and then the dumpster arrived. That same day, we looked outside and it was all gone. No truck, no trailer, and no dumpster. He did not come to our door and talk with us or anything, he just disappeared. We tried to call him and our relative did as well, when he was finally contacted, he said the job was too big and he was quitting. He brought some of our money back that same day, the rest of it was returned 2 days later. We did get the money back, but it was a very frustrating experience to wait a month and through a couple of delays, and then to have him skip out on the job altogether.
Description of Work: Hired him for a large siding job.

VERY PROFESSIONAL. WORKED EVEN DURING COLD DAYS AND DID AN EXCELLENT JOB WITH BOTH SIDING AND THE TYVEC. THEY WERE VERY PRECISE IN EVERYTHING THAT THEY DID WHICH GAVE US AN EXCELLENT RESULT. THEY CLEANED UP VERY WELL AFTER THEMSELVES AND KEPT US INFORMED AS TO WHEN THEY WOULD BE HERE (THIS WORK WAS DONE OVER THE CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS SO THERE WERE SOME DAYS WHEN NO WORK WAS DONE. ALSO SOME OF THE DAYS WERE WELL BELOW 0 AND I WOULDN'T HAVE EXPECTED THEM TO TRY TO WORK IN THOSE CONDITIONS.). THEIR WORK WAS EXCELLENT OVERALL AND I WOULD NOT HESITATE TO RECOMMEND THEM FOR ANY JOB.
Description of Work: REMOVED SIDING FROM HOUSE AND ATTACHED GARAGE AND INSTALLED TYVEC AND VINYL SIDING. THIS WORK WAS DONE BY SKM WHO SUB CONTRACTS WITH CAPITAL SIDING AND WINDOWS.

HE SET UP AN APPOINTMENT AND CANCELED IT BECAUSE OF CHILD CARE. HE SET UP A SECOND APPOINTMENT AND CANCELED IT BECAUSE OF A CONFLICT. HE THEN SET UP A THIRD APPOINTMENT FOR A SATURDAY AT 8AM, AND SHOWED UP 4 HOURS LATE. HE WAS HERE FOR 15 OR 20 MINUTES AND DECIDED HE COULDN'T DO IT.
Description of Work: HE WAS GOING TO COME OUT AND JUST DO THE WORK WITHOUT HAVING GIVEN ME A BID AND I WAS GOING TO PAY HIM THE 3 HOUR MINIMUM (OR MORE IF NEEDED). IT WAS SUCH A SMALL JOB THAT IT WASN'T WORTH IT FOR HIM TO COME OUT AND GIVE ME A BID AND THEN COME BACK OUT TO DO THE WORK ON A SECOND TRIP, AND THAT WAS AN ACCEPTABLE ARRANGEMENT FOR ME.

THIS WAS A VERY GOOD EXPERIENCE. THEY WERE VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE ABOUT WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE AND WHAT NEEDED REPAIR. THEY DID NOT SUGGEST EXTRA WORK. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE USED THIS COMPANY AND THEY GET THE JOBS DONE, CLEAN UP AND DO WHAT THEY SAY NEEDS TO BE DONE. I AM VERY HAPPY WITH THE APPEARANCE OF ALL THE REPAIRS AND REPLACEMENTS.
Description of Work: THEY DID SIDING REPAIRS, HUNG NEW SHUTTERS AND DID WINDOW WRAPS WHERE NEEDED.

SHANE SAID HE COULD POSSIBLY MAKE IT OUT THE NEXT DAY, BUT HAD PREVIOUS COMMITMENTS TO CUSTOMERS. I UNDERSTOOD AND TOLD HIM TO CONTACT MY HUSBAND THE NEXT DAY. IN THE MEANTIME, A REP FROM ANOTHER COMPANY COMMITTED TO BEING AT OUR HOME THE NEXT DAY. WE REALLY NEEDED THIS AS MORE SHEETS OF SIDING CAME OFF THAT NIGHT. MY HUSBAND WAS IMPRESSED WITH SHANE'S CALL BACK AND PROFESSIONALISM. I WAS IMPRESSED THAT HE ALSO ANSWERED HIS CELL PHONE WHEN I CALLED HIM TWICE. WE WOULD CALL HIM IN THE FUTURE IF WE NEED FUTURE SIDING WORK DONE. I ALSO LIKED HOW HE GAVE ME AN APPROXIMATE COST OVER THE PHONE, EXPLAINED THE PROCESS AND HOW LONG HE EXPECTED THE WORK TO TAKE.
Description of Work: I HAD FOUR SHEETS OF SIDING AND SOME SHINGLES THAT CAME OFF IN A WIND STORM. I CALLED SHANE TO SEE IF HE WOULD BE ABLE TO REINSTALL THESE.

IT ONLY TOOK HIM MAYBE TEN MINUTES. HE CALLED LATER THAT NIGHT TO EXPLAIN WHY THE PLANK CAME LOOSE.
Description of Work: ONE PLANK OF SIDING HAD COME LOOSE AND MADE HORRIBLE NOISE IN A STRONG WIND. SHANE WAS THE ONLY ONE OF THREE COMPANIES I CALLED WILLING TO DO THE JOB.
