Fiber cement.
James Hardie® siding
Starts at $11.00 / sq ft
James Hardie® fiber cement siding combines timeless elegance with the strength to withstand New England’s shifting seasons. Made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibers, it resists fire, rot, and pests – keeping its crisp finish year after year. Its wide range of styles, from wood-grain to smooth panels, lets you match any architectural design. A long-term, low-maintenance investment that enhances both durability and curb appeal.
Vinyl siding
Starts at $8.50 / sq ft
If you’re looking for affordability and versatility, check out vinyl siding. Known for its resistance to moisture and pests, it performs exceptionally well through humid summers and cold coastal winds. With proper care, vinyl can last 20–40 years, providing reliable protection and energy efficiency. Best of all, it requires minimal maintenance – just a quick cleaning to keep your home looking vibrant and fresh, year after year.
Cedar siding
Starts at $16.00 / sq ft
Cedar siding delivers the rich, natural beauty that defines classic Fairfield County homes. Its warm tones and subtle grain patterns bring warmth and authenticity to any façade. Naturally resistant to decay and insects, cedar also offers strong insulation against sound and weather. When properly sealed, it maintains its character for decades – aging gracefully into a soft, silvery patina that enhances your home’s timeless charm.
Aluminum siding
Starts at $22.50 / sq ft
Aluminum siding provides sleek style and lasting resilience for coastal climates. Resistant to corrosion, fire, and pests, it performs beautifully against salt air and stormy weather. Its reflective coating helps regulate indoor temperatures, improving energy efficiency while maintaining a polished finish. With minimal upkeep required, aluminum siding is ideal for homeowners who want modern protection with a refined, maintenance-free look.
Engineered Wood Siding
Starts at $11.50 / sq ft
Engineered wood siding captures the warmth of real wood while offering advanced protection against moisture and pests. Crafted from treated wood fibers and resins, it’s lightweight, sustainable, and built to endure seasonal changes. Available in a variety of finishes, it provides lasting curb appeal and the classic beauty of wood without the constant upkeep. A smart, design-forward choice for today’s discerning homeowners.

The cost of siding depends on the material used, and several other factors, including your home’s design, size and number of stories, the cost to remove existing siding, local labor rates and even the terrain your house is built on. Regardless of your choice, we give you a final price before the job begins to help you make an informed choice.

We Make It So Easy

Get an amazing home transformation in 5 steps

1 step
Old Siding Removal
We begin by removing the existing siding. Depending on the project scope, this phase takes 2 to 7 days. If your home is a new build or requires only minor repairs, we’ll skip this step.
2 step
Sheathing Damage Inspection
Next, we inspect the underlying sheathing for damage, including hidden rot or mold. Repairs are rare, but if needed, we’ll discuss the cost with you upfront.
3 step
Preparation of the Wall for Siding
Although optional, we recommend adding a rainscreen system, which includes building paper, flashings, and strapping/mesh. This step enhances airflow and protects against water damage, which is important given our area’s high rainfall and snowfall. A rainscreen can extend your siding’s lifespan by 5-10 years.
4 step
Siding Installation and Touch-ups
Our expert team then installs your siding with precision, ensuring every detail is perfect. This phase takes about 7 to 10 days and includes everything from trim boards to soffits and insect screens.
5 step
Waste Removal and Clean Up
We take pride in leaving your property spotless. All debris is properly disposed of, and we adhere to the latest environmental regulations while maintaining the highest standards of cleanliness.

FAQ

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

What factors determine the cost of siding installation?

Several elements influence pricing: your home’s square footage, the material you select, the amount of old siding that must be removed, the condition of the sheathing underneath, and whether your home has detailed trim, multiple peaks, or complex rooflines. Coastal areas may also require extra moisture barriers or upgraded materials for long-term durability.

Are you licensed and insured to work in Connecticut?

Yes. We meet all Connecticut licensing requirements and carry full insurance, including liability and workers’ compensation. This protects both your property and our crew throughout the project.

Do you need to visit my home before giving me a quote?

Fairfield County has a mix of historic New England homes, coastal properties, and modern builds – each with different structural needs. An on-site visit lets us evaluate your current siding up close, look for moisture or salt-air damage, examine trim and framing, and take precise measurements. This ensures your quote reflects the true scope of the project and prevents unexpected changes once work begins.

How long does the siding installation process take from start to finish?

Most projects take 2 to 4 weeks, depending on material availability, the size of your home, and weather conditions. Rainy seasons can affect scheduling, but we keep you informed and adjust the timeline responsibly.

Do you help with HOA approvals or local building permits?

Definitely. Many communities in Fairfield County – especially in towns like Westport, Darien, and Wilton – have detailed exterior guidelines. We assist with HOA submissions, provide required documentation, and help ensure your project meets any local permitting requirements.

Do I need to be home during the installation?

Not necessarily. As long as we have full exterior access, our team can complete the project while you’re away. We communicate regularly during the installation and notify you if we find anything unexpected behind the old siding.

Will you remove my old siding before installing new materials?

Yes. Removing old siding is important for identifying water intrusion, rot, or insulation issues. Many homes have older layers that need to be replaced to create a solid, weather-tight foundation for new siding.

Do you install siding year-round?

Yes – weather permitting. Installation can continue through most of the year, but extreme cold, heavy rain, or snowstorms may cause short delays. We plan accordingly and keep you informed throughout the project.

What should I do if I notice an issue after the installation is finished?

Just reach out to us. We will inspect the issue and take care of anything covered under your warranty. Our goal is to ensure your siding performs beautifully and reliably long after installation.
