Siding Services in Lawrence Township, NJ

Vinyl is the most common siding on New Jersey and Pennsylvania homes, and for good reason: it costs less than the alternatives, it does not rot or absorb water, and it needs nothing from you but an occasional wash. Modern insulated panels also add a little to the wall's R-value. We install it in dozens of profiles and colours.

Fiber cement holds paint and colour better than almost anything else on a wall, and it will not rot, warp or burn. It is heavier and costs more to install than vinyl, so it suits homeowners who want the look of painted wood without repainting it every few years. We are a CertainTeed Master Craftsman crew.

Aluminum does not absorb moisture, will not rot and takes a baked-on finish that lasts for years. It can be ordered pre-finished or painted to a custom colour, which makes it useful for matching existing work. It dents more easily than vinyl, so we tend to recommend it for trim, soffit and fascia as much as for whole walls.

Nothing looks quite like real wood, particularly on an older home where cedar clapboard or shingles are what the house was built with. It comes in a range of profiles and can be stained or painted any colour. It does need refinishing periodically, and we will be straight with you about that before you choose it.

Not every siding problem needs a whole new wall. We replace panels that have cracked, faded or blown off, repair the sheathing and house wrap behind them, and match the existing profile and colour as closely as the material still made will allow. On areas under about 200 square feet, a repair is usually the right call.

Siding that looks past it is often just dirty. Algae, pollen and road film build up on the north and west walls in particular, and a careful wash at the right pressure brings the original colour back without driving water behind the panels. We can do it on its own or as part of a larger exterior job.

Stone and stone veneer are hard to beat on a front elevation, around an entry or on a foundation wall. They are fireproof, they last effectively forever, and they lift the appearance and the value of a house more than almost any other exterior change. We use them alongside siding rather than instead of it, on the parts of the house people see first.

Restoration Millwork is a cellular PVC trim that goes where exterior wood trim used to: around windows and doors, on rakes and fascia, and anywhere trim sits close to a roof or the ground. It will not rot or need repainting, it arrives white and ready to fit, and it takes paint if you want it to match the siding.

Mastic is the line we reach for most often when a homeowner wants insulated vinyl. The insulation laminated behind the panel stiffens it, quietens the wall and adds a little to its R-value, which shows up as a house that holds its temperature better in both directions. It resists impact well and washes clean.
