Benefits

We understand the importance of aesthetics, which is why we offer Cedar Impressions® as an alternative to standard vinyl siding. This siding features a TrueTexture™ woodgrain finish to mimic the appearance of natural wood, but is made from polymer, so it will not be susceptible to as much damage as traditional cedar shake siding.

Other benefits of Cedar Impressions® include:
  • Available in over 15 colors and 6 profiles.
  • Comes with 3/4” panel protection for enhanced performance.
  • Can withstand up to 200 mph of windload pressures due to its integrated RigidForm® 200 technology.
  • Comes with a Patented PanelThermometer™, temperature lines, reinforced nail slots, and molded locks for an easier, more precise, and more secure installation.
  • Made from polymer, so it’s sustainable.
  • Resistant to fading, mold, and mildew.

Our Process

Step 1

Use CertainTeed’s visualizer tool to experiment with different colors and profiles.

Step 2

Once you land on your favorite combination, you’ll schedule a free consultation with us, where we’ll discuss project requirements (including budget) to help you further refine your options. Our priority is ensuring your project remains within budget!

Step 3

After you accept our quote, we’ll order your Cedar Impressions® siding.

Step 4

The project begins after we receive the materials we need from CertainTeed®. We’ll schedule a day most convenient for you and begin the work by removing old siding, repairing or replacing damaged wood (as needed), and installing foam and wrap to protect your home while we install your new siding.

Step 5

When we’ve completed site preparation, we’ll install starter strips, which are the best foundation for any siding project. We’ll always use proper channeling and clean aluminum work because we care about delivering beautiful, defect-free results.

Step 6

Next, we install the siding, ensuring we carefully handle each shingle to prevent scuffing. When installing siding, we deliver every nail by hand, which is crucial because nails can expand and contract as temperatures fluctuate (common in Michigan). If the Cedar Impressions® shingles can’t expand and contract with the nails, they will eventually warp, which you definitely don’t want for aesthetic purposes.

Step 7

After installing your siding, we’ll perform a final walkthrough to review our work and ensure you’re 100% satisfied with the results. We also guarantee a comprehensive cleanup—we believe in mess-free construction, so we always use an Equipter to catch old siding and debris during any project.

Step 8

All that’s left is for you to enjoy your new siding!

Where do I start? We needed a roof. We had an active leak that was starting to show on the ceiling in our bedroom. We reached out for quotes from 3 different companies. L&S was the first quote we received and I knew right away they were the company I could trust. L&S came for a consultation fully prepared with numbers, honest comparisons and a power point with information about their company. The sales associate Ryan was competent, answered any questions I had and provided a warm and welcoming environment to a stressful adult task such as buying a roof. We have a 1 1/2 year old puppy who took a liking to Ryan; and he was very understanding and accepting of our pet as well which went a long way. From productive to genuine conversation, I knew I could trust them! We were able to finance through their company which was huge for us. The job was done quickly and with amazing quality. The roofers were very nice and understanding of me and my dog being home and coming out for walks during their job. In comparison to companies out there, the price was reasonable and I could tell that Ryan was doing his absolute best to work with us on that as well. I would 10/10 recommend L&S! Thank you for the quality work you do!

L&S is an excellent company to work with. Great communication and responsive to questions. The roof installation was quick and clean the crew is very hard working. We also had our porch over hang rebuilt due to water damage and the guys did a great job showing us what needed to be done. This is the second time we have worked with L&S on 2 different properties and both were excellent experiences. Highly recommend!

L&S did both a full roof tear-off and replacement as well as attic insulation for us, and I couldn’t be happier with how everything went. From start to finish the crew was prompt, efficient, and genuinely impressive with their cleanup; even my neighbors commented on how spotless my yard was when they left. When a permit issue came up they handled it quickly and without any hassle on my end.

Matt was an excellent account rep and honestly the biggest reason I chose L&S in the first place, even though they weren’t the lowest cost. His transparency and follow-through, combined with the peace of mind that comes with the roofing guarantee, made the decision easy. Highly recommend.

Excellent job, people and customer service!
My husband and I were nervous about doing such a large project on our home. Neither of us had experienced that before. Matt made us feel comfortable about our decision and walked us through every aspect of the job. Friendly workers, prompt, efficient, and professional! Thorough cleanup. Would definitely recommend!!

When I hire a company to work on my home I have high expectations. My family lives here, I want it to be safe. L & S went above and beyond from the very first time we met Tony. He came in and explained everything to us in great detail and we felt very comfortable hiring them to redo our roof. The roofers that were on site were all very kind and courteous. They covered the entire house to prevent any debris potentially being left behind. After the job was done they did an amazing job cleaning up! Tony even came back out a few days later to ensure that everything went well and we were happy with the job! I would highly recommend them if you are looking for a new roof!

I recently had my roof replaced and couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the first consultation to the final cleanup, this company delivered true five-star service all the way around.

The team was professional, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable. They took the time to explain the process, answer all my questions, and make sure I felt confident every step of the way. The quality of the workmanship is outstanding—my new roof looks amazing and was completed with great attention to detail.

What really stood out was their communication and respect for my property. They kept everything clean and organized throughout the job and left my yard spotless when they were done. It’s clear they take pride in their work and genuinely care about their customers.

If you’re looking for a reliable, honest, and top-quality roofing company, I highly recommend them. Five stars all the way!

We had a great experience with L&S Home Improvement for our new roof. No complaints whatsoever. Our salesperson Ryan Moulding was great. Very knowledgeable and friendly, no pressure, good communication. Price was reasonable in relation to other quotes we had received. Installation was done in one day. Very professional crew. No nails at all in our yard...yeah none. They have a nail catching system that worked very well. They took pictures of the job as they went which made me feel much better because otherwise you don't know what's really going on up there and you're just counting on them doing what they said they were going to do. No hesitation whatsoever to recommend.

Excellent experience with L&S! We had shingles blow off during a high wind event, and Matt was incredibly responsive. He came out the very next day to provide a very fair quote and managed to complete the repairs 24 hours later—just beating a major snowstorm. Very grateful to Matt and the L&S team.

We had L+S Home Improvement come out and replaced our roof and our garage. From the start Ryan came out and went over everything, very professional. The day of the install went very good and the roof looks fantastic. Highly recommend them!!

L&S came out quickly, gave us great options, they explained the products in detail, and got the job done in less time than originally estimated. The cost estimate was spot on of the actual cost, and we are very satisfied with our new garage roof! They are also very personable and not pushy. Highly recommend

Just got our new roof done on 10/1/2025. The crew showed up bright and early and ready to work. Very pleased with the politeness and professionalism that we were shown by all the workers. Quite a big investment and it can be scary seeing that bottom line figure. However, Scott was wonderful to work with as he answered every single question I had and was very understanding of our situation as my mom has recently passed away. Had a lot going on at the moment.

I will recommend your company to anyone I know that needs roofing repairs or a new roof done. The whole process from start to finish was very thorough. L&S was the only company, and we had 3 of 4 companies come out, that actually went into our attic upon doing our estimate. The other 2 did not go in the attic and the other did only took a satellite picture of our home.

Thank you for everything! No more worries about leaks in the roof when it rains, our heating and cooling bills will be lower and we have a nicer looking home as well. The new roof, attic insulation and gutters have added value to the home and one less thing to worry about.

Wanted to post pics, but for whatever reason it won't let me....😔

We were very happy with the installation of our new roof. The crew that installs were very professional and took great caution in covering our house, flower beds with protective covering. We had up to six roof estimates and the final decision came down to trust and L&S did not disappoint.

Tony came out to Troy home and was straight forward throughout the whole process. He gave price, timeframe, clean-up, and overall what to expect. My calls were answered and the roof and gutters are awesome. More important, the price was lower than all other estimates using top quality materials. Two thumbs up!
