Northen Affairs Deciding on Siding How to get your money's worth -- by JANE E. GREER Siding has become a popular way of giving homes a facelift. As well as reduciag mainten- ance and blocking drafts, installing siding may provide a good op- portunity to have addi- tional insulation blown into wood-frame or brick-veneer walls. The Product Although aluminum is very popular, siding is also available in various types of vinyl, wood and other metals. When de- ciding what kind to use, examine your reasons for having it installed. If, for example, ease of maintenance is a major factor don't choose a siding which requires regular washing, paint- ing or staining. The Company Unless you install your own siding, select- ing the right company is the most difficult part of the job. You will want a fair price, good work- manship and after sales service. That's why it's important to shop ar- ound. Make sure you get at least three written estimates. Deal with lo- cal businesses who have earned good reputa- tions in the commun- ity and ask the contract- ors for names and ad- dresses of people for whom they have recent- ly installed siding. Call them to find out if they are satisfied with the work. Better still, take a look at it yourself. The Contract Your next step will be to examine the contract carefully. Make sure you understand everything in it. The following terms must be included in every contract ac- cording to the Consum- er Protection Act: © the names and add- resses of the seller and buyer © a detailed description of the goods and ser- vices This should enable you to identify all of these clearly. © a detailed statement of how you will pay for the work © an itemized price list of goods and services © any warranty or guar- antee on the goods and services address Mr. 2Y0 ; WANTED If anyone has the address of Mrs. David Lohr (Nee-Miss Desormeau), formally a grade four teacher at Terrace Bay Public School eighteen years ago, or her inlaws & Mrs. former Terrace Bay residents, please send the address to Mrs. Gail Johnson General Delivery, Upsala, Ontario POT Burt Lohr, also You should also in- sist on having starting and completion dates and the responsibilty the contractor takes for workmanship included in the contract. In addi- tion, you should look for any blank spaces in the contract. Mark them N/A (non applicable) or Nil. Buyer Protection Under the Business Practices Act no com- pany is allowed to en- gage in unfair business practices by making false, misleading or de- ceptive claims. If you Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, July 25, 1984, page 3 Native Language Education for '86. feel the contractor made clear misrepresenta- tion, you may send a letter cancelling the ag- reement. If this doesn't bring satisfaction, you may take the contractor to court under the act. Under the Consumer Protection Act you may cancel a contract made with an itinerant (door- to-door) seller within two working days of re- ceiving your copy of it. You may cancel by send- ing a registered letter to the company or by deli- vering it personally to continued on page 5 Native students will be able to study their own language, the Edu- cation Minister, Dr. Bette Stephenson an- nounced last week. Dr. Stephenson said that Native as a Second Language Program will be implemented in the schools by September of 1986.
