    Shingles and Shakes

    Shingles are precisely milled, with uniform thickness and a smooth, clean-cut appearance, making them ideal for a more refined or formal look. Shakes are typically split rather than sawn, giving them a thicker, more irregular texture that creates a rustic, handcrafted feel. Often used as an accent on gables, dormers, or entire façades, shingles and shakes offer texture and depth. They’re particularly well suited to Craftsman bungalows, older wood-framed homes, or any property where a softer, more natural profile is desired.

    We Make It So Easy

    Get an amazing home transformation in 5 steps

    1. Full house siding replacement
      1 step
      Old Siding Removal

      We start by carefully removing the existing siding. This typically takes between 2 and 7 days, depending on your home’s size and siding type. With new builds or homes requiring only minor preparation, this is not required.

    2. 2 step
      Sheathing Damage Inspection
      Next, we thoroughly inspect the sheathing beneath the siding for any signs of rot, mold, or damage. Repairs are not often needed, but if they are, we provide a clear estimate before proceeding so you know exactly what to expect.
    3. Repairing damaged areas of siding
      3 step
      Preparation of the Wall for Siding

      To protect your home from moisture damage, we recommend installing a rainscreen system that includes building paper, flashings, and strapping or mesh. The DMV experiences, on average, 115 days of rain, sleet, or snow each year, so this extra barrier helps prevent deterioration and may extend the life of your siding by several years.

    4. 4 step
      Siding Installation and Touch-ups

      Our experienced team handles installation with precision, attending to every detail including trim boards, soffits, insect screens, and flashings. This phase generally takes 7 to 10 days, depending on the size of your home and the complexity of the design.

    5. 5 step
      Waste Removal and Clean Up

      Once installation is complete, we clean your property thoroughly and dispose of all waste responsibly per local regulations. The only visible change will be the beautiful new siding enhancing your home’s exterior.

    FAQ

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

    What areas does Ideal Siding Washington DC Metro serve?

    We work across the DC metro: Washington DC, Northern Virginia (Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, Loudoun and Prince William) and the Maryland suburbs (Montgomery, Prince George’s, Frederick and Calvert counties). That covers everything from rowhouses in Capitol Hill and Petworth to colonials in Vienna and Reston, newer builds out in Ashburn, Gainesville and Woodbridge, and Maryland homes from Chevy Chase and Silver Spring down through Fort Washington and Prince Frederick and west to Frederick. If you’re not sure we cover your street, send us the address and we’ll tell you.

    Are you licensed and insured to work in DC, Virginia and Maryland?

    Yes. We carry general liability and workers’ compensation insurance, and we hold the contractor licensing each jurisdiction requires. VA (Class A RBC #2705197841) | DC (Class C #410526000131) | MD (MHIC #166206)

    How does the DC area climate affect siding?

    We get hot, humid summers, cold winters, and a lot of freeze-thaw swings in between. Moisture is the main enemy. It gets behind siding, swells wood, and finds any gap in the flashing. Materials that handle water and temperature swings, installed with good flashing and sealing, hold up best here.

    Which siding is best for DC area weather: Hardie, vinyl or cedar?

    James Hardie fiber cement is our most requested option. It handles humidity, heavy rain and pests well, and holds paint and color for years. Vinyl is the budget-friendly choice and needs very little upkeep. Cedar gives you a classic look that suits older and traditional homes, but it needs regular sealing or staining. We’ll walk through the tradeoffs for your house at the estimate.

    Can you add stone to my exterior?

    Yes. Stone veneer works well as an accent on the base of a house, around entries, or on columns and chimneys. It pairs nicely with Hardie or vinyl and adds curb appeal.

    Why do you need to visit my home before giving an estimate?

    Homes around here range from 1920s rowhouses to new construction, and no two are alike. Seeing your siding in person lets us check its condition, look for moisture damage under it, and measure accurately, so the number you get reflects the real work.

    Can you help with storm damage and insurance claims?

    Yes. The DC area gets strong summer thunderstorms, high winds, and the occasional hail. If you think weather damaged your siding, we’ll document what we find and give you the information your adjuster needs.

    Do I need an HOA or historic district approval, and can you help?

    Often, yes. Many neighborhoods across DC, Alexandria, Arlington and the surrounding suburbs have HOA rules or historic district requirements for exterior changes, including color and material. We help with the paperwork and can provide samples and specs for approval.

    How long does a siding project take, and do I need to be home?

    Most projects take one to a few weeks depending on the size of the house, material availability and weather. You don’t need to be home as long as we have access to the exterior. If we find something unexpected behind the old siding, we tell you right away.

    Will you remove my old siding first?

    In most cases, yes. Taking the old siding off lets us check the sheathing for hidden moisture or rot and fix it before the new siding goes on. That’s how you get a result that lasts.

    What should I do about pest or woodpecker damage?

    Pests and woodpeckers usually show up where siding, fascia or soffit already has a weak spot, like a gap or moisture damage. The fix is to repair that spot, replace damaged pieces, and seal it properly. A quick inspection is the first step.
