Exterior Siding Cedar Shingles, James Hardie Siding, or Hardi Plank Siding, is a
cement fiber board that bears a striking resemblance to wood, complete
with texture and grain. Unlike wood, however, Hardi Board siding
is impermeable to the most common forms of damage that threaten
wood siding—including water damage, rot and termites. They
are also specially designed to retain paint much longer than wood,
without chipping or peeling.
Comparable only to vinyl in terms of durability and attractiveness,
Hardi plank siding is an excellent option for those wanting the
look and feel of real wood siding, without giving you the hassles
and risks that accompany it.
Amazing Siding and Windows employ professional installers and
the highest quality materials to ensure that the job is done right
the first time. Before hammering a single nail, your exterior
walls are fully inspected for any signs of damage or rot. All
surface boards will be removed, and caulk and seal around windows
or doors is applied where needed. In addition, all structural
problems will be identified that may be due to insect or water
damage. After all, a building is only as good as its foundation!
Once all potential trouble spots have been carefully dealt with,
Tyvek Homewrap is installed on all exteror walls where the Hardi
plank siding will be applied. Tyvek Homewrap has the highest perm
rating and water holdout rates of any weatherization wrap in the
industy. This adds tremendous protection to the exterior walls
of your home. Once the outside of your home is completely inspected,
repaired and wrapped, it is then that expert installers will begin
to install beautiful Hardi Plank siding to your home.

Exterior Siding Cedar Shingles
What to Know Before Signing a Home Improvement Contract
by: Susan Chana Lask, Esq. February 23, 2005
It is important to be a very careful consumer when it comes to
home improvement contractors. For instance, I had a case where
my client, an elderly and blind woman, signed a contract and paid
$30,000.00 to a home improvement company that disappeared with
all of her money! Unfortunately, the company was a scam operation,
my client lost her life's savings and it will take some time in
court before my client may ever see her money again however, her
mistake will be a lesson to all of you because this article explains
how to protect yourself from home improvement fraud.
Before signing any contract with a home improvement company,
first ask that company for its license number and check it out
with your State or County Consumer Affairs' Business License Division.
Find the License Division on the web or call information and get
their number. You want to find out (1) the name and address of
the company associated with the license number given to you, (2)
if the company is currently licensed and the license expiration
date and (3) whether any complaints have been made against that
company. The answers to those questions will help you determine
if you want to proceed with signing a contract. Make sure both
the contractor and the company he works for are licensed to work
in your State.
If your going to sign the contract then make sure certain things
are included pursuant to your understanding and as required by
your State’s Home Improvement Business Law. The contracting
company's name, address and phone number should be printed on
the contract. Also, it is important that the contracting company's
home improvement license number is printed on the contract and
that it is not different from the number you called and inquired
about with Consumer Affairs. Lastly, make sure that all of the
work to be performed is listed in the contract and that the approximate
start and end dates of work are included. You should put a penalty
clause in the contract regarding the contractor’s failure
to timely complete the work because contractors are notorious
for starting jobs and then leaving for a few days or weeks to
do other jobs while you sit and wait in your dismantled kitchen
for him to return. Once the contract terms are satisfactory then
the contract should be signed by both you and the company's representative.
An example of a consumer protection law is New York’s General
Business Law §771 ("GBL") requiring all home improvement
contracts shall be in writing and contain certain terms of payment,
fees for services and materials and start and completion dates,
among other terms. GBL §771 is a consumer protection statute
to prevent the misunderstandings between contractor had consumer
and to protect the consumer from overreaching of the contractor,
such as charging for work that was not agreed upon. GBL §771
limits the contractor who disregards its written contract requirements
to satisfactorily proving to a court each and every item of work
he did and the reasonable value of each item by detailed invoices,
timesheets and proof of hourly rates, among other proofs. So,
if the contractor who failed to put your home improvement work
in writing attempts to collect $20,000.00 from you, he has to
prove the value of his services in detail before scaring you into
paying an amount you had no idea about. New Jersey’s Consumer
Fraud Act and the Home Improvement Act protect the consumer even
more by denying the contractor from recovering any monies if he
violates any of the consumer laws AND he will pay three times
the amount of damages (called treble damages) to the consumer
for his failing to obtain proper permits or licenses or any other
violation of those laws.
Lastly, protect yourself by not paying 100% upfront. Most contracting
companies ask for a deposit upon your signing the contract. I
suggest that you put down as little as possible and arrange a
payment schedule with the company where you will pay a certain
amount as certain work is completed. Of course, always get a receipt,
signed by the company and stating the date and amount of any monies
paid to the company if you pay anything in cash.
This article is certainly not all inclusive and is intended only
as a brief explanation of the legal issue presented. Not all cases
are alike and it is strongly recommended that you consult an attorney
if you have any questions with respect to any legal matters.
