New Siding, With The Rot Actually Fixed First

Siding is the easy part. The honest part is what's behind it. We strip the old siding, replace boards that have gone soft, wrap the house, and then put the new siding on — in that order, because covering rot is how a house quietly gets worse.

Common questions

Do you go over the old siding or take it off?

We take it off. Going over the top hides whatever is failing underneath. Our work page has a house mid-project with the siding stripped and the bad boards visible — that's the step that matters.

What if you find rot once the siding is off?

You hear about it with photos before it gets covered. Replacing it is part of the job, and if the scope changes materially we talk to you first.

Can you do one wall instead of the whole house?

Yes. Partial siding and exterior repair is a normal request — send photos of the wall in question.
