Siding accounts for the largest visible surface area on most structures, making it a critical factor in curb appeal, energy efficiency, and weather protection. According to industry data, quality siding installation can recoup upward of 70 percent of project costs in added home value, making it one of the smartest exterior improvements available. With decades of combined experience in exterior construction, our team helps property owners in Unionville, CT select and install the right siding materials to maximize both performance and return on investment.
Siding Materials We Work With
Choosing the right siding material is a decision that affects your property for decades. Vinyl siding remains the most popular option in the United States, covering roughly 30 percent of all single-family homes. It offers excellent durability, low maintenance requirements, and a wide variety of colors and profiles. Our team installs premium vinyl siding systems that resist fading, cracking, and moisture infiltration, giving your home long-lasting protection with minimal upkeep.
Beyond vinyl, we also specialize in fiber cement siding, which has grown dramatically in popularity due to its exceptional fire resistance, termite resistance, and ability to mimic the appearance of natural wood grain. Fiber cement products typically carry warranties of 30 to 50 years and can withstand wind speeds exceeding 130 miles per hour when properly installed. For homeowners and business owners in Unionville, CT who want the look of traditional wood without the maintenance headaches, fiber cement is an outstanding choice. We also work with engineered wood siding, aluminum siding, and specialty stone veneer applications that complement our masonry expertise.
Our Siding Installation Process
Every siding project begins with a thorough inspection of your existing exterior. Our team evaluates the condition of your current siding, underlying sheathing, house wrap, and insulation to identify any damage or deficiencies that need to be addressed before new materials go up. This step is crucial because installing new siding over compromised substrates leads to premature failure and hidden moisture problems.
Once the assessment is complete, we provide a detailed scope of work that outlines material options, color selections, and a clear timeline for completion. Our installation crews follow manufacturer specifications precisely, ensuring proper overlap dimensions, fastener placement, and expansion gap allowances. As a GAF certified company, we hold ourselves to the highest standards in exterior construction, applying the same rigor to siding that we bring to our roofing, siding, and gutters services across every project.
- Complete removal of old siding and inspection of underlying sheathing for rot or water damage
- Installation of weather resistant barriers including house wrap and flashing at all penetration points
- Precise cutting and fitting around windows, doors, and architectural features for a seamless finish
- Final inspection and cleanup ensuring every detail meets our professional quality standards
