Looking for someone in LC/SWLA who can repair/replace some fascia, vinyl siding, and soffit areas on my house in Lake Charles.
Insurance only pays for damaged areas. I don’t think that’s right for them to do because I wonder if it’ll look like patchwork. But I don’t know if there’s any recourse.

I can do all of those but it's too damn hot to be working on that stuff right now. I may have someone else who would do it for you in the LC area.

You can drop me an email at otreachout@gmail.com and we can discuss the details of what you need done.

What you may want to consider....

You may not be able to buy the exact same material to match what you have now. If this is the case, depending on what repairs are needed, you may be able to take down some siding on the back side of the house and use that to make repairs to areas that "visible". Then put up new material where the old stuff was taken down.

I also do this kind of repair work.... but as said, it is too hot for me to even consider working in this heat.
Is your repairs just a little or a major amount?

I live in the "Bluff".

Sorry to hijack. I need the same in Prairieville. Guess it’s too small of a job, no one will come out once we tell them what we need: 2 pieces of vinyl fascia and two pieces under carport . It’s stuff we can nail up ourselves, just need it ordered I guess? (I’m a woman, forgive me). If anyone here has that hookup, please let me know.

Take a piece of your soffit to your local vinyl siding store. Match it as close as you can and ask them to sell you 1 sheet. Cut that sheet to the length you need using a skill saw with the blade put on backwards to keep from splintering your vinyl. Likely you won't even need to worry with that in this heat tho.

Drop me an email and I can explain it to ypu better with some visual reference on what you need to do. It's an inexpensive and easy job.

One area of the siding issue I should’ve mention was the chimney. The storm took all the vinyl siding from around it. My roofer wrapped it in GAF roofing felt when he put the new roof on in 11/2020. They would only do roof, not fascia, soffit, or chimney siding. So I should’ve chosen a roofer that would have been willing to do that.
