Re-insulating and residing a rear addition

After looking for a few siding contractors, we found Tony/Westwood Aluminum on Homestars. We called him up and he came by within a few days to provide a very reasonable quote.
The addition to the back of the house is about 7'x7'. The main reason we were looking to re-side the addition was because we suspected carpenter ants were living within the walls, so we wanted to tear out the old siding to see what we could find and at the same time re-insulate it because it gets quite cold in the winter.
We already had an exterminator come by previously to spray over the weekend and Tony's crew (Ned and Josip) came by yesterday and today to do the insulation and siding. When Ned and Josip started to tear off the siding and some of the older foam insulation, we discovered that a colony of carpenter ants were living within our walls and that parts of the frame were badly rotted and eaten away (moisture had gotten in under our window due to a bad job on sealing the window from another contractor). Luckily, our exterminator was able to come by within 10mins and spray the nest. Afterwards, Ned and Josip removed all of the rotten wood and ended up building/replacing the rotten part of the frame for minimal cost. We weren't expecting the damage to the frame, and thought that we were going to need to call another contractor to come in and fix the frame. We were extremely fortunate that Josip and Ned knew how to fix it on the spot, and that they didn't even make a fuss over the nest of ants or having the extra work of replacing the frame.
They just finished the work today - the job looks phenomenal, and the area was left totally spotless! Tony and his crew (Ned & Josip) were really great to work with and we are very lucky to have found an honest and reliable company/contractors. They came by when they said they would, their quote was extremely reasonable, they are very friendly, and they went above and beyond what we expected them to do. Needless to say, we are very satisfied with them and we would highly recommend them to anyone! Thank-you Tony, Ned and Josip!!
