Vinyl siding is available in a wide variety of colors and styles to match your home’s architecture. When you install vinyl siding, it is crucial to pay attention to detail during the installation process to avoid potential frustrations and enhance the overall outcome. We install a wide range of styles, including horizontal panels, vertical panels, shakes, scallops, and more. Modern vinyl siding can actually reproduce the look and feel of intricate wood detail with numerous widths and textures available. Additionally, vinyl soffit can be one of the first elements to be installed depending on the type of construction, playing an integral role in the overall assembly process of building exteriors.

Wood siding is versatile and can be used on various structures. Due to the nature of wood, it can also be stained with the desired color or stain. Wood siding does require more maintenance, with treatments expected every 5-10 years depending on weather and temperature exposure.

Fiber cement siding is a popular choice for homeowners due to its exceptional durability, low maintenance, and resistance to pests and weathering. Made from a blend of wood fibers, cement, and sand, this siding option offers a variety of styles and textures to suit any home design. Not only is fiber cement siding eco-friendly, but it can also be recycled at the end of its life cycle, making it a sustainable choice for environmentally conscious homeowners.



When installing fiber cement siding, it is crucial to adhere to the manufacturer’s instructions and local building codes to ensure a proper fit and finish. The siding should be installed over a smooth, flat surface, with a water-resistive barrier applied to the wall beforehand. Various fastening methods, including nails, screws, and staples, can be used to secure the siding in place.

One of the standout benefits of fiber cement siding is its ability to withstand harsh weather conditions, such as high winds, heavy rainfall, and extreme temperatures. Additionally, it is resistant to pests like termites and rodents, reducing the risk of damage and the growth of mold and mildew. Overall, fiber cement siding is a durable, low-maintenance, and stylish option for homeowners looking to enhance their home’s exterior.

Installing new siding on your home is a significant home improvement project that requires careful planning and execution. Here is a comprehensive guide to the siding installation process:

Before installing new siding, it is essential to prepare your home and the surrounding area. This includes:

• Removing any existing siding, whether it be vinyl, wood, or aluminum.
• Inspecting the wall surface for any damage or rot.
• Repairing any loose boards or damaged areas to ensure a solid foundation.
• Applying a water-resistive barrier to the wall to protect against moisture.
• Installing flashing around windows, doors, and other openings to prevent water infiltration.

Once the pre-installation steps are complete, the next step is to prepare the wall surface for the new siding. This includes:

• Ensuring the wall is smooth and flat to provide a solid base for the siding.
• Installing a starter strip at the bottom of the wall to guide the first course of siding.
• Applying a layer of insulation to the wall, if necessary, for added energy efficiency.
• Installing a nailing hem or other fastening system to secure the siding in place.

Vinyl siding is a popular choice for homeowners due to its durability, low maintenance, and affordability. Here are the steps involved in installing vinyl siding:

• Starting at the bottom of the wall, install the first course of siding, ensuring it is level and plumb.
• Install subsequent courses of siding, overlapping each course by at least 1 inch to ensure proper coverage.
• Use a zip tool to remove and replace siding pieces, if necessary, for a seamless finish.
• Install corner posts and J-channels to complete the installation, ensuring a clean and professional look.

Corner installation is a critical part of the siding installation process. Here are the steps involved in installing corner posts and J-channels:

• Cut the corner post to the correct length using a miter saw or other cutting tool.
• Install the corner post, ensuring it is level and plumb for a precise fit.
• Cut the J-channel to the correct length using a miter saw or other cutting tool.
• Install the J-channel, ensuring it is securely fastened to the corner post and the wall surface for a polished finish.
