Common Cladding Questions

Pricing out an expansive siding renovation completely leans upon your preferred visual grade. Standard hollow vinyl drops easily over single-story rectangles, keeping margins notably lean. Conversely, hanging thick cement-board profiles atop incredibly steep, complex multi-gabled roofs drives labor scopes higher significantly. Reach out remotely for a specifically tailored number.

Vinyl basically represents a brightly manufactured hollow plastic extrusion that reliably shrinks and expands effortlessly alongside intense temperature shifts. Hardie board fundamentally fuses heavy cement paste right into cellulose fibers; it incredibly resists deep woodpecker gouging, categorically repels raging wildfires, and mimics an enormously expensive timber look phenomenally well.

Assuming nominal Midwestern weather permits, an aggressively coordinated crew comfortably scales and totally strips a typical suburban two-story frame practically overnight. Hanging fresh water barriers and locking together hundreds of overlapping lap panels usually demands somewhere near an additional three to five uninterrupted business days firmly.

Consistently. No premium plastic panel or cement plank operates successfully absent a perfectly sealed, highly-breathable house wrapping system backing it entirely. We staple massive synthetic fabrics straight across your naked plywood sheathing tightly, aggressively taping down every window sill to unequivocally forbid driving rain from touching your interior pink insulation.

Absolutely. If an isolated massive wind burst rips numerous brittle panels forcefully off your western facing wall, we immediately hunt down factory-equivalent replacement stock quickly. By utilizing specific side zipping tools, we easily unhook the intact bordering pieces gracefully and seamlessly slide fresh new sheets perfectly into the matrix.

Not technically, but ignoring terrible wood rot hovering around your gutters completely negates the primary point of investing heavily in fresh wall cladding. If our installers actively uncover terribly spongy, heavily water-logged eaves hiding behind the top courses, we strongly recommend cleanly wrapping that exposed wood loudly in fresh exterior-grade aluminum.
