Siding is the exterior material that protects your home from the elements. It enhances your home's appearance and energy efficiency. Various materials, such as vinyl, wood, and fiber cement, are commonly used.

How long does siding last?

The lifespan of siding varies by material. Vinyl siding can last up to 40 years, while wood siding may need replacement every 20 years. Proper maintenance can extend the life of your siding significantly.

Is siding weather resistant?

Yes, quality siding is designed to withstand various weather conditions, including rain, wind, and snow. Materials like fiber cement and vinyl offer excellent resistance to moisture and temperature fluctuations. Proper installation is key to maximizing durability.

Can I paint siding?

Yes, most siding types can be painted, especially wood and fiber cement. However, vinyl siding typically requires special paint for best results. Always consult with a professional to determine the best approach for your siding.

What is the cost?

The cost of siding installation varies based on material, labor, and your home's size. On average, homeowners can expect to pay between $3,000 and $15,000. For a precise estimate, we recommend scheduling a consultation.

How Should I Prepare My Home for Siding Installation?

To prepare for siding installation, remove items leaning against the house, such as bikes, chairs, and toys. Trim tree limbs, bushes, and plants near the house to provide easier access for workers. Inside, remove items from walls to prevent damage from vibrations during installation.

What Are the Most Common Types of Siding and How Do I Choose?

The most common types of siding include vinyl and fiber cement (like James Hardie). When choosing, consider factors such as:

  • Your neighborhood's aesthetic
  • Local climate
  • Budget
  • Maintenance requirements
  • Homeowners Association restrictions (if applicable)

What Maintenance Does Siding Require?

Maintenance requirements vary by siding type:

  • Vinyl siding needs occasional pressure washing to remove dirt and grime
  • Fiber cement siding (e.g., James Hardie) may need repainting after about 15 years
  • Ensure gutters work properly and direct water away from the siding to prevent premature aging

Regular maintenance helps prolong the life of your siding.

I was really impressed with JAY Construction Company. The entire crew showed up on time to begin work. The owner of the company came in the morning making sure that everyone knew what their responsibilities were. In addition, he was back at closing time to check the work. He also had a construction manager on site all of the time. I now have a new roof and three skylights that look beautiful! You would not have known that a new roof was on with all of the cleanup work that was performed at my house. Knowledgeable, professional, great communication on all aspects of the job - this is the company that you want to do a job at your house! Awesome people!

We are very pleased with the new roof that J.A.Y. Construction installed on our home. John was incredibly professional and thorough in his work. He took care of a small flat roof that had been causing us trouble for a long time, and he made sure that it was done properly and with quality materials. He also inspected the old roof and pointed out all the issues that needed to be addressed, such as poor ventilation and chimney damage. He even anticipated our future needs and installed an exhaust cap for a bathroom that currently has a window but may need a fan later. He was very attentive to all the details and listened to our concerns. He was not only an expert in his field, but also a friendly and down-to-earth person. The roof looks great, and we no longer have any problems with leaks. We trust John's workmanship and we know that he will stand behind his work if anything goes wrong. We chose J.A.Y. Construction even though they did not propose the lowest price, but we think it was worth it. We got more than what we paid for. We would highly recommend him to our friends and family.
