The ARC, Walt Boge, Bill Nelson, Deano Macurdy, and Dave Ferguson, in their infinite wisdom,decided to make the homeowner PAINT the siding two different colors to match the two variations of sun fade! This was after I had showed the ARC committee twelve other same siding situations they had approved. I have a neighbor who ran into the same problem with a wooden shed out back. [caught by ARC some years ago when they rode around the golf course checking for violations in rear yards] He was told to color match the vinyl siding on his home. He took a piece of his siding to Sherwin Williams and had them do a computer color match. After painting the shed he was told that the color still did not match and he needed to repaint but elected to do nothing and fortunately ARC did not follow up on their threat to make him paint the shed again. I also thought that if one elected to paint brand new house siding that it could void the warranty. |

For reference, the above message is a reply to a message where: I certainly understand what you are saying Joe. My point is as always, common sense. I had a customer two years ago, when the ARC was absolutely going overboard with no consideration ,that we closed in a screen porch with windows and siding. The siding that existed was no longer manufctured. We found siding that matched the color exactly as the original siding. The existing siding on the left side of the house had faded to one degree, and the siding on the back of the house had faded to a lesser degree. Now remember the siding we installed matched the original color of the siding EXACTLY. The ARC, Walt Boge, Bill Nelson, Deano Macurdy, and Dave Ferguson, in their infinite wisdom,decided to make the homeowner PAINT the siding two different colors to match the two variations of sun fade! This was after I had showed the ARC committee twelve other same siding situations they had approved. Now you know this did not sit well with me, but the owner did it to appease the ARC. This and other instances are what led to the demise of all but one of the above referenced gentlemen and helped bring us today's "milder and gentler" CPI, IMHO. |
I know that is the case with aluminum garage doors as I ran into that situation myself.
