Meet The Owner

James and Bri Dale

James and Bri have called Chattanooga home since 2010, when they first moved to the area to attend Southern Adventist University. Since then, they’ve lived in Harrison, Chattanooga, and Hixson, fully embracing the natural beauty and friendly community of Southeast Tennessee. Life is busy and joyful with their three young boys who love rafting trips on the Ocoee, visits to Ruby Falls, and tossing frisbees at Coolidge Park. Their family also includes Charlie, their Welsh Corgi, who eagerly tags along on every adventure. Sports are a big part of their life, too, with James playing basketball and softball in local leagues.

James and Bri were drawn to Ideal Siding because it aligned with their values – honesty, service, and doing what’s right for homeowners. Today, they’re committed to giving their neighbors a renovation experience that feels clear, supportive, and stress-free from the first meeting to the final walkthrough. They take the time to listen, explain options, and guide homeowners toward choices that will protect and enhance their homes for years to come. Their approach centers on communication, thoughtful guidance, and quality workmanship, ensuring every project is completed with care and built to last.

We Make It So Easy

Get an amazing home transformation in 5 steps

1 step
Old Siding Removal
First, our team removes your home’s existing siding, which takes anywhere from two to seven days, depending on the size of the project and the type of your siding. Some types of older siding, such as vinyl or cedar, can be removed quickly, while stucco and stone can take longer.
2 step
Sheathing Damage Inspection
Next, your existing sheathing is inspected for rot, mold or other damage. Fortunately, most homes do not require sheathing repair. However, if it is needed, it could result in a small additional cost. Of course, before we proceed, we will provide an estimate once the scope of the work is determined.
3 step
Preparation of the Wall for Siding
The next step in the siding installation process involves adding a rainscreen. This involves the use of building paper, flashings, and strapping/mesh. While optional, a rainscreen can greatly extend the lifespan of the siding by allowing airflow in the walls. Siding with a protective rainscreen can last up to 5-10 years longer compared to siding without one.
4 step
Siding Installation and Touch-ups
The next step is installing the siding itself, as well as trim boards around windows, doors, soffits, overcap corners, and fascia boards. We also put in insect screens, flashings, dryer vents, and light fixture boxes, and apply touch-up paint to the nails, matching the color of the siding to create a seamless, professional look.
5 step
Waste Removal and Clean Up
The final step is cleaning up your property. We remove and recycle all construction debris in accordance with the best practices in the siding industry.

FAQ

Our team is always available to assist and provide further details tailored to your specific needs.

What factors impact the cost of siding installation?

How long does a siding project typically take?

Most projects take 2–4 weeks from consultation to completion, depending on material availability, weather, and your home’s complexity. You’ll get a clear timeline before we begin.

Will siding replacement disrupt my landscaping or yard?

We work carefully around your yard and take steps to protect plants, mulch beds, and lawns. Any materials or dumpsters are placed strategically to minimize impact, and we clean up thoroughly after completion.
