Siding Contractor in Boxborough, MA

Inland, the damage comes from freeze-thaw. Water gets into a seam, freezes, expands and opens the joint a little further, night after night through the winter. The centre of Boxborough sits about 316 feet above sea level, 569 feet lower than our shop. Boxborough, 30 miles from salt water, is in that group.

The Census counts 2,353 homes in Boxborough. The typical one was built in 1989, which makes Boxborough's housing the 106th oldest of the 109 towns we serve; 10% went up before 1960 and 46% before 1980. 73% are lived in by their owners, and 59% are single-family houses. A younger housing stock usually means original builder-grade siding, windows and trim reaching the end of their first life, with less old paint and fewer hidden layers to deal with.
