We Also Install Seamless Gutters…

Posted on by Andy Czaplinski in Vinyl Siding Leave a comment

If you’re planning to have new vinyl siding installed on your home, why not take care of your gutters at the same time?  It’s something we do all the time, and it’s more efficient to have this done together with the siding because we already have the scaffolding and ladders all set up – which means we can include seamless gutters for only a small additional price.

In this video we talk a little about our approach to installing seamless gutters at one of our CT job sites.

Creative Home Improvement has been installing Vinyl Siding all over Fairfield County for nearly 40 years.

Today we’re talking with Andy about the option of installing seamless gutters at the same time as vinyl siding.

We use 0.032 gauge aluminum on all our gutters, it’s the thickest material you can get, so if you ever have to put a ladder up against it, it’s not gonna bend.

On this job we used Cedar impressions from Certainteed – giving you the real wood shingle look without the maintenance

We work in many area towns including Orange, Derby, Ansonia and more.

The Details Make The Difference: Siding Around Outdoor Lights

Posted on by Andy Czaplinski in Vinyl Siding Leave a comment

When installing vinyl siding on your home, it’s important to use proper j-blocks when putting the outside lights back up.  Not only does this give a clean finished look, but it also insures water does not leak in through the light junction box area – which could cause multiple problems.

As we’ve discussed in the past, you can get the highest quality siding materials for your home, but if it’s not installed meticulously, you’re going to experience problems down the road – and you lose the benefit of having a “maintenance free” vinyl exterior.

On every vinyl siding project we install j blocks, which go behind your lights.  The key to that is – it’s a beautiful finished look – when we’re done the vinyl siding fits into the built in j channel on the j block and then your light gets attached on top of the j block. Of course, these lights are a little old – so when it comes time to do your project, if you buy brand new lights, we’ll put those up at no additional charge.

“The neighbors spoke very, very highly of him…”

We’re always amazed at the feedback we receive from our customers. In the video below, our video person interviewed a couple from Hamden, CT – asking about their experience with having vinyl siding installed on their home as well as with Creative Home Improvement.

A few highlights:

  • They were both working full time during the project, so it was important to find a contractor they could trust while they were away.
  • It’s an older home, so they were very interested in a solution that looked like real wood yet did not require the expense and maintenance of real cedar

Excerpts From The Video

“We were very tired of the old siding. It looked bad, we were trying to figure out what we could do to make the house look better. We went to a home show and saw the examples of what could be done, and one of them was the (cedar impressions) siding that we chose. We thought that it looks great and would probably be a lot cheaper than tearing down the old siding, putting up all new wood and then painting it.”

“…. we have the Cedar Impressions, because it’s an older home and it makes the look of the cedar. The first time I saw it I was fooled by it. That’s why we chose it. We know it will last a lot longer than just wood, and we don’t have to paint it every five or six years. Its got 30 years on it minimum. So it seemed like the best possibility or the best option for us.”

“We both work and we were never here when the work was being completed, so we felt that we were in good hands with Andy and his dad, that we could go to work each day and know that our property was safe and would be well cared for. That right there put a level of trust for us. The neighbors spoke very, very highly of him. I think Andy’s personality, he just presented himself as trustworthy, sincere, hard working, and his own company responded in a timely manner, and you really felt comfortable with him. I think it’s the kind of decision you have to make anytime you have someone in your home and we were just very comfortable with him.”

“I would recommend Andy and his company to anyone without one moment of hesitation.”


Truly Maintenance Free Vinyl Siding: A Quality Installation Is Crucial

Posted on by Andy Czaplinski in Vinyl Siding Leave a comment

Many home owners decide to go with vinyl siding because they’re tired of painting their house.

The idea of having a completely maintenance free exterior is wonderful – not to mention the other added benefits such as improved insulation (R value) and curb appeal (especially if you’re using something like cedar impressions siding). Although siding as a product is designed to be virtually maintenance free for a lifetime, if it’s not installed meticulously, there’s bound to be trouble.

At Creative Home Improvement, we take pride in each and every vinyl siding installation – and our best measurement is the large number of happy customers and referrals we receive, spanning 40 years.
