Phase 2: After You Sign (Planning & Preparation)

What Happens After I Sign My Remodeling Contract?

What is the typical lead time for siding, window, or roofing projects?

The typical lead time of a project depends on several factors, such as the size and scope of the work, availability of materials and labor, local weather conditions, and more.

What happens between contract signing and installation?

Between contract signing and installation, our team is working behind the scenes to secure all necessary building permits, order materials, and coordinate scheduling. The time frame between signing and installation can vary depending on several factors, including product availability, manufacturer lead times, permit approvals, seasonal demand, and Wisconsin weather conditions. Once your materials have arrived and your project is next in our installation schedule, our office will contact you with confirmed installation date and time.

Will permits be handled for me?

Yes, all necessary permits will be submitted through our production team.

How will I be updated before the project starts?

Someone from our Siding Unlimited production team will call to schedule your installation, this will take place generally 1-2 weeks before the start date of your project.

What to Expect Before Your Installation Begins

Final measurements & material ordering

Phase 3: Installation Day & Project Completion

What to Expect on Installation Day

What time will my remodeling project start?

Your remodeling project will typically begin between 7:30-8:00 a.m., when our team arrives on site. If there is any adjustment in start time, our office will notify you in advance.

How long does siding / window / roofing installation take?

Project timelines vary depending on the size of your home, the scope of work, the materials selected, and weather conditions. Some project can be done relatively quickly, while others may take longer due to customization or design details.

Who will be my main contact during the install?

Your sales representative will be your primary point of contact throughout the project. If you have questions related to scheduling or your installation, our production staff is also available to assist.

Substantial Completion vs. Punch List Explained

What is substantial completion?

Substantial completion means your project has reached the point where the work is essentially finished and your home can be fully used as intended. At this stage, the main installation is complete, and only minor items such as touch-ups and small adjustment may remain.

What is a punch list in home remodeling?

A punch list is a final checklist of small items that need attention after the main work on a project is complete. These items are typically minor such as touch-ups and/or adjustments and do not prevent the space from being fully usable.

When is my project officially complete?

Your project is officially complete once all contracted work has been finished and the final payment has been made. The project meets agreed-upon specifications and quality standards, and final documentation such as warranties and care information is provided.

Phase 4: After the Project (Care & Warranty)

Warranties for Siding, Windows, Roofing & Doors

What labor warranty do you offer?

Yes, our work is backed by a 10-year labor warranty as of 9/1/2025, so you can feel confident long after your project is complete. For more details, source your Siding Unlimited contract.

What manufacturer warranties apply to my products?

Manufacturer warranties vary depending on the specific products that were selected for your project. Many come with their own coverage for performance and durability, provided directly by the manufacturer.

How do I file a warranty claim?

If you need to file a warranty claim, start by submitting your concern in writing to our team within 14 days of discovery, photos and descriptions of the issue are encouraged with the initial claim. We’ll help determine whether the issue falls under a labor or manufacturer warranty and guide you through next steps. If applicable, we’ll assist with coordinating inspections, documentation, and communication with the manufacturer to make the process as smooth as possible. For manufacturer warranty, you can visit our warranties page: https://www.sidingunlimited.com/warranties

Long-Term Care, Maintenance & Condensation Questions

How do I care for my new siding or windows?

Routine maintenance helps keep your siding and windows looking great and performing as intended. In general, occasional cleaning with mild soap and water and regular visual inspections are all that’s needed. It’s also important to keep the surrounding area clear of debris and address any issues promptly with our team if they arise.

What setting for a power washer does Siding Unlimited recommend for cleaning siding and windows?

Siding Unlimited does not recommend using a power washer to clean your siding and windows. The high pressure can force water behind siding panels, damage seals, and potentially cause long-term issues. Instead, we suggest using a soft cloth or brush with a gentle cleaning solution and a garden hose for safe, effective cleaning.

What causes window condensation and is it normal?

Window condensation forms when moisture in the air settles on cooler glass surfaces. Changes in temperature, seasonal weather shifts, and indoor humidity levels can all contribute to this. Some condensation is normal, especially during colder weather or temperature swings. If concerns arise, our team is happy to help determine the cause and recommend next steps.

Who do I contact if I have questions years later?

If you have any questions following your project, you can also reach out to your sales representative or Siding Unlimited main office for assistance in answering any questions. We’re committed to being a long-term resource for our customers, not just during installation, but well beyond it.
