Pick the job that sounds like yours
Five servicesIf two of them sound like yours, that is normal. Say so on the walkthrough and the written scope covers both under one price.
What an exterior remodel costs in Tampa, FL
Three things move an exterior job from one range to the next, and they are the same three every time. The cost page has the Tampa market range and its source. Your number comes after the walkthrough.
Front door and entry door replacement
In Florida a front door is storm protection with paperwork. The approval number on the edge has to match your wind zone and the permit. We measure the opening and probe the threshold before the door ships.
Siding repair and replacement
Siding sheds water. The flashing behind it stops water. One soft board is a morning. A wall with missing window flashing is a project. We pull the worst board before we quote, so the scope is written on what is there.
Soffit and fascia repair
The fascia rots behind the gutter, where the water sits, not in the sun. The soffit is how the attic breathes, not just trim. We probe every foot first and fix the gutter that caused it. The new wood is primed on all sides before it goes up.
Front of house remodel
Five small jobs in the right order. Rot and flashing first, then the door with its permit, then paint, then the walkway. As one written scope the front gets finished once. Out of order you paint twice and the door frames a rotten fascia.

Most fronts are one of these 5 cases. Read the line that sounds like your house. The page it points to is the one to open first. On every one of them, the order is the same. Water and rot get fixed before anything gets painted or hung. Maplex Services is not a general contractor. Electrical, AC and plumbing are done by a licensed general contractor we work with.
The door sticks, leaks air, or you just hate it
That is a front door replacement. In Florida it is also a permit and a product approval number. The door has to hold in a storm. The pretty part is the last part.
There is soft wood, a gap, or a panel pulling away
Start with siding repair. One bad run can be replaced. A whole wall that is soft is a different job. The flashing behind the siding is what decides which one you have.
Something is peeling or dripping at the roof edge
That is soffit and fascia repair. Rot at the roof edge comes from water getting trapped, not from the sun. The soffit also vents your attic, so it is not just trim.
You want the whole front done, and done in order
A front of house remodel. Door, siding, soffit, paint, walkway and landing as one written scope. In the order that keeps the paint from peeling next year.
