What Homeowners Ask Us Most
How do I know if my siding needs repair or full replacement?
If the damage is localized — like a few cracked panels or minor rot — a repair is often all you need. We’ll inspect the area and give you honest advice based on the condition, age, and type of siding you have.
Can you match the existing siding exactly?
Yes. We specialize in material and color matching for vinyl, fiber cement, and cedar siding. Our goal is to blend repairs so they’re practically invisible.
How long does a typical siding repair take?
Most siding repairs can be completed in just one day, depending on the scope. We’ll give you a clear timeline up front and keep the worksite clean throughout.
What types of siding can you repair?
We repair vinyl, fiber cement, cedar, and engineered wood siding — including James Hardie™ and LP® SmartSide® products. If it’s on your home, chances are we’ve worked with it.
Is siding repair covered by insurance?
If the damage was caused by a storm, fallen tree, or other insured event, it might be. We can inspect the damage and help you document everything for your insurance provider if needed.
