I was thinking of buying a home that had cedar siding but the cedar was turning black and I was not sure if it was possible to restore wood siding or not. I started researching it on the internet to get my answer. I found numerous companies that specialize in house cleaning and a few of them did explain that they could restore wood siding.

I had three different house cleaning companies come and give estimates on what it would cost to restore the wood siding on the house before I made the sellers an offer. I figured that I could take the cost of the restoration job off the top of the listing price and they would have to agree to it because they also knew that it needed to be done.

After getting all three different estimates for the house wood siding restoration job, I sat down with the sellers to see if they could allow me to take that much off the top of the price of the house and still be able to pay off their mortgage. They agreed to the price reduction and I purchased my first home, and within six months of me buying it, it looked brand new after the wood siding was restored.
