Double R A Construction Corp Receives CertainTeed Corporation’s Award for Craftsmanship

(Valley Forge, Pa.) – Double R A Construction Corp., of Rye Brook, New York, recently received the CertainTeed Corporation Award of Excellence for the renovation of a home that used CertainTeed® siding, soffit and crown molding.

Selected for its craftsmanship and overall appearance, the home featured Cedar Impressions® 7-inch Straight Edge Perfection Shingles in the color Charcoal Gray, Beaded Triple 2 1/3-inch InvisiVent Soffit in Colonial White, and matching Vinyl Carpentry® crown molding in Charcoal Gray.

“We only use CertainTeed products because they are a name you can trust,” said Anthony G. Sotire, owner and president of Double R A Construction Corp. “We used Restoration Millwork® cellular PVC moldings with vinyl crowns in front, plus a unique capping design above the front door to highlight the original style of the house. The colors that the customer picked really make the house ‘pop,’ especially with the red front door.”

“CertainTeed Corporation recognizes Double R A Construction Corp. for a quality job well done,” said Matt Gibson, marketing director for CertainTeed’s Siding Business. “We commend the company for its dedication to professional craftsmanship and the use of high-quality, durable products to create excellent results.”
