My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

    Amberlinas,


    The color is Maibec White. A very common color in the Maibec line of shingles. www.maibec.com

    Best,

    Can you tell me if this was single coat or 2 coat for the white? Looks great!

    Matthew,


    It is a 2 coat. I love the product, however I will say that I have had some issue with the white/cedar "bleeding" through a bit. Sometimes it looks as though the redness of the natural cedar comes through, if you give it time, the redness will go away. (1 year / 4 seasons) however, I would suggest going with the Nantucket not the Kennebunk as the Nantucket line as the Nantucket holds the stain better. You can always call Maibec for some more info, they have a great customer service department and stand by the product and paint.
