We selected Cutting Edge Contracting to replace all the old aluminum windows in our house in Ridgefield. We received 4 different bids. One was less, one was more, and one didn’t provide the detail needed to assess the bids. What distinguished Cutting Edge was their professionalism and the extra service — our window trim was mediocre at best and they were the only contractor to bid on replacing both interior and exterior trim. The workers were great. Hard working. Courteous. Friendly but business-like. The install was top-notch — no issues. Some of our old cedar siding had to be replaced on two bump outs. Cutting Edge replaced it with Hardie Plank and it looks just like the cedar it replaced. They used James’ Hardie’s recommended caulk that is very elastic — not the hard, brittle caulk you so often see. They nailed the Hardie Plank with finish nails to help prevent cracking(a big plus — we paint houses and we are always seeing cracked Hardie siding due to poor nailing). They also wrapped the exposed areas prior to replacing the old cedar. Their attention to detail was very much appreciated. During installation we found some other siding boards that had lost contact with the trim board, leaving almost an inch gap. Cutting Edge re-shimmed those boards, re-installed new trim and re-caulked the old cedar to the new trim and it looks better than before. Water, bug, bird and rodent tight! They also explained everything they did and why they did it that way. Very open to questions. They didn’t take short cuts. The walk through was thorough. We asked for some adjustment on the window trim and they happily did it. The workers are to be commended for working so hard during a very rainy week. It rained almost constantly. But we didn’t get water in the house and they worked very hard. I would not hesitate to use Cutting Edge Contracting again and I recommend them without reservation.
