Why Choose Us?

Installation Done Right the First Time

As repair specialists, we see exactly why other siding jobs fail (improper flashing, poor nailing patterns, ignored water damage, etc). When we install your new siding, we use that knowledge to ensure your home is protected properly from the very first time we install your siding.

Our Installation Process

  • Thorough Inspection: We assess your current exterior for hidden rot or structural issues.
  • Moisture Protection: Installation of premium house wrap and flashing tapes to seal your home.
  • Insulation Options: Upgrade to insulated vinyl siding to reduce energy bills and noise.
  • Trim Work: We install matching J-channels, corner posts, and window casings for a polished look.
  • Site Cleanup: We ensure your yard is left spotless after the job is done.

Products Used

Tyvek HomeWrap

We use Tyvek HomeWrap, the industry standard for weather barriers. It is a breathable layer that stops liquid water from entering your wall cavities while allowing internal moisture vapor to escape. This prevents the rot and mold that often plague poorly installed siding jobs.

CertainTeed Siding

An industry-leading company we are very happy to use for our vinyl siding is CertainTeed. CertainTeed offers state of the art durability, fade resistance, and a massive variety of profiles and colors. By combining our precise installation with their high-performance products, we provide a finish that stays beautiful for decades.

Siding Options

Standard Vinyl

Cost-effective, low maintenance, and available in hundreds of fade-resistant colors.

Insulated Vinyl

Foam-backed siding that keeps your home warmer in the winter and cooler in summer, increases durability, and keeps walls straighter.

Vinyl Shakes

An aesthetic look of natural cedar shakes. Perfect for accents or siding the entire house.

How to Know if Your Home Needs Siding Replacement

Most homeowners throughout Sussex and Morris County don't look at their siding until they see a piece hanging off after a storm. However, siding usually gives you "warning signals" long before it fails completely.

Warping and Buckling

If you have ever taken a walk around your home on a sunny day and notice that the panels look wavy, this is a sign the siding was not hung properly. If vinyl siding is installed too tight (a common mistake by big crews), it will buckle. If you can’t slide a dime behind the panel or move it slightly with your hand, it’s "pinned" to the wall. Over time, this stress causes cracks and allows water to seep behind the panels.

Bubbling or Blistering

If you see actual bubbles or blisters on the surface of your vinyl, it’s a major red flag. This usually means the siding has either been exposed to extreme heat or that moisture is trapped between the siding and the house wrap. Once the siding starts to blister, it is no longer weather-tight.

Faded or "Chalky" Finish

Another integrity test is to run your hand across the siding to check if a white, chalky residue comes off on your fingers. This is a sign that the protective UV coating has broken down. While it might look okay from the street, "chalky" siding is becoming brittle. Brittle siding cracks easily to even relatively light impacts, leaving your home vulnerable.
