Wendy W - 5 Star
Officers’ Rowhouse Condominium Association is a small privately managed HOA. We were badly in need of new siding. We obtained six different siding bids, including Cutting Edge. Because we are not professionals we looked for a company that was very professional in communication, detailed paperwork and follow through to aid us in a very complicated project. Our siding project required structural repair, roofing repair and dry rot repair before siding could even begin. Cutting Edge was able to perform all the phases of our project through to painting and gutters. The project was lengthy and Cutting Edge was in communication will all the homeowners of our HOA. In consultations with all of the membership of the HOA we unanimously endorse Cutting Edge as the best choice we could have made for our project. We give Cutting Edge 5-stars for the excellent work on our beautiful, nearly new, building.
