Vinyl siding is durable, waterproof and resistant to rot, infestation and rust. Additionally, vinyl siding can be pigmented or dyed during the manufacturing process. This provides a long lasting, never fading color that doesn't require regular repainting. Sears makes this vinyl siding for several home configurations in many colors and shades.
This color has a slightly tan appearance and hides dirt better than pure white. A light but muted green, Coastal Sage contributes to an organic look, blending well with hedge and surrounding plants. Coastal Sage is the only shade of green Sears offers. A warm and inviting color, Colonial Ivory is a yellowy white. This color matches many of the same colors as pure white but may appear perpetually dirty with pure white trim or shutters.
Slightly blue, Platinum Gray is the lighter gray Sears offers. This color is almost light enough to be off-white. This medium-toned tan is an organic looking light color that complements gray, blue and brown trim. The color is the darkest tan Sears offers. Also organic, Tuscan Clay has the muted and light red color of baked clay. I have called 12 times in last 3 months. They say there is only one person who looks at siding and make sure you have Well I have been ready and no show on the one guy who checks it.
I hear now if it is deemed bad then be prepared to have checkbook or card ready to pay installer which will cost more that what the siding would cost. I paid double all the other companies because of the lifetime warranty. When I signed contract I was just reading it first and the salesman said oh do not bother reading as I will explain in full. He said this is what it says "never worry about Sears we cover all of it for life and that's why all people should go with us.
Review Written: Sears Review: "Quality isn't what it used to be! The electrical nightmare begins After the installer left for the day on Friday, my wife and I smelled a "burned electrical" smell but could not locate it.
Shortly thereafter we discovered that we had no electricity in the front two bedrooms and the ceiling of the garage. We contacted our salesman, who called the installer, who came over and began ripping the siding off the front of the house.
He decided to do this because the rooms without power were on the front. We had to demand that a licensed electrician be called to properly assess the situation this should have been the first thing done. The electrician came on Monday, interviewed us, called for a second electrician to help him, and using specialized equipment it took four hours they finally located the approximate location of the "short" -- it was on the back of the house where the installer had run a nail through a feeder wire coming out of the panel.
The electricians informed us that the "only thing they could do to get us back up and running" quickly, as this was Monday evening was to splice the wire.
To meet code, they would have to put in an externally accessible junction box so they could run a new line from the panel and splice it to the feeder line above where the nail went in. By the time we had power in the entire house, it was three days. We worried the entire time that there might be a serious fire.
An ugly box had to be added to the middle of wall where our deck is, to meet code because the contractor put a nail through a wire and shorted out two rooms on the opposite side of the house.
The installer paid the electricians and then he "patched things up" and left. We bought the house from a builder who was re-building the home he purchased from an insurance company following a lightening strike fire that burned the entire house. This entire house had was brought up to current codes and standards. Another entire day with NO power in the entire house this time , and a costly bill to pay the electrician for a new panel and lots of jumping through hoops to get city approval to get the power turned back on My wife and I consider ourselves extremely fortunate that the smoldering in the walls did not advance any further.
We, very easily, could have had a major fire electrical fires seldom come out well — we watched our neighbors house burn down ten years ago. How frightening to think of getting everyone out of a burning house my wife with her disabilities, two Great Danes and a cat and praying the fire department can save a home and a lifetime of memories.
It is now and the siding is falling off the front of my house. When I called Sears to have it repaired they said the lifetime warranty will cover the the materials but not the labor which is all I need since it just needs put up again.
This alone make it not worth it as the original cost of this siding should cover any possible labor needed to repair it. The "piece of mind" I thought I was paying for just isn't worth it. Save your money and get a general contractor to do it.
It will cost much less, even if you have to replace several times. Soon after it started falling apart. The windows were crooked, they used a lot of cocking to fill in the gaps threw out the whole house. In there was a windstorm and some of the siding from the very top pitch came off. When I called for my grandfather, the Sears rep said that it was a "finger of god" accident and that it was not covered.
Again this "finger of god" concept came across when we had a hail storm and wholes were put threw out the house. I have been very disappointed with sears! On top of it all, I cant find parts so that I can repair these "finger of god" mess- ups. Needless to say, after my grandfather passed in we found out how much he had paid for the siding.
My grandfather was ripped off! I could have bought him a brand new double wide trailer with all the bells and whistles for that much! I wouldn't get sears or any of their products if you gave them to me. Very unsatisfied. We bought from Sears because they said they do it all, including overseeing and providing a project coordinator to stay with us every step of the way.
They hired a contractor to install the siding as we were told they would. But during the installation process, no one from Sears came by to check on the contractor, nor did we receive a call from the project coordinator or project consultant to check with us to see if the project was going ok. The contractor scheduled with us twice to start the installation not the project coordinator and twice he did not show up or call. The third time I called him he finally showed up.
We were led to believe that a crew would be installing the siding. Two days there were two guys and the rest of the 8 days only one guy installed the siding on a two story house. Several things we were told by the Project Consultant the one who sold us this project that would be done during installation were not done. Unfortunately did not get everything in writing. I didn't think I had to dealing with Sears.
