Viking Exteriors

After a tornado hit our house, a friend recommended contacting Ed Herbst of Viking Exteriors. He had a crew out first thing in the morning, making structure repairs and making the house watertight so no more damage occurred. Throughout the process, Ed’s accessibility was unlike any I’ve ever experienced with any contractor. The longest I had to wait for a response was maybe an hour. He had a wealth of knowledge and dealt with insurance every step of the way which was a huge help. Repairs were a new roof, all new siding, structural repairs and a full masonry chimney rebuild. I could not be happier with the quality and timeliness of the work.

After a tornado hit our home, Ed and his team responded the next day to secure it. They later replaced the roof, added a metal accent roof, upgraded our windows, enclosed an open area under the house, and transformed the exterior with James Hardie siding and Azek trim. One special request was to remove our old spiral stairs and build a new outdoor stairwell connecting the decks to the patio—They delivered with great ideas and flawless execution. Their craftsmanship, professionalism, and attention to detail were outstanding. Highly recommend!

Ed and his crew repaired the hole in my garage wall, including structural damage, caused by a car driving through the garage wall. Once I gave Viking the go ahead Ed was in the job. He did an excellent job coordinating with the insurance company, as well as with my plumber and electrician, as the gas and electric meters and gas pipe were knocked out in the collision. He did what he could to work through the cold weather whenever possible. This was mainly an issue with the stucco and painting. Ed also coordinated township inspections and addressed any concerns immediately. Highly recommended! Looking forward to having garage floor epoxy painted in the Spring.

We experienced water intrusion in our attic ceiling whenever rain came from the Southeast. Ed from Viking Exteriors, LLC was able to accurately trace the source of the leak to the intersection of the siding and stucco. After installing housewrap and adding proper flashing, we made it through the recent Noreaster completely dry. Exceptional work and highly recommended!

Mostly, this is to remind most of you that our men's breakfast is on Monday, December 1. I also want to tell you about my big reason for thanks this Thanksgiving. Some of you know parts of this: On late Monday afternoon, a nice man who had been leafblowing on my roof came to the front door with a photo of a big hole in my roof where the vent cover of our exhaust fan had been. I emailed Eddy Cruz, and he e-mailed Kim, our new MRH rep, asking her to tell me that MRH doesn't pay for this repair and to let me know I was on my own. Terry kindly dropped me by Kim's office on Tuesday morning, where I learned that indeed I was on my own in getting this repaired. When I asked, Kim kindly suggested asking the dryer vent cleaning guys and gave me the name and number of a siding company they had used
