Siding Contractor in Canton, MA

Canton (02021) is in Norfolk County, about 42 miles east of our Charlton shop, a run our crews make regularly. It is the 77th closest of the 109 towns we serve, and 13 miles from the coast. The towns next to it are Sharon (3 mi), Stoughton (3 mi), Norwood (4 mi), Randolph (5 mi), Walpole (5 mi). From the shop it is 59 road miles to the centre of Canton, about 81 minutes without traffic, mostly on I-90, I-95 and Route 20.

Towns a few miles in from the coast get the worst of both: salt carried on an onshore wind and a full freeze-thaw winter, which keeps opening the seams the salt is working on. The centre of Canton sits about 115 feet above sea level, 770 feet lower than our shop. Canton, 13 miles from the water, is in that group.

The Census counts 9,866 homes in Canton. The typical one was built in 1980, which makes Canton's housing the 91st oldest of the 109 towns we serve; 27% went up before 1960 and 50% before 1980. 74% are lived in by their owners, and 56% are single-family houses. A stock this mixed means no two quotes start the same way: an older house may be hiding asbestos-cement shingles or lead paint under its current siding, while a newer one is usually down to its original builder-grade materials.

Around Canton, Milton sits closest to the coast at 7 miles and Foxborough farthest at 21; Medfield is the nearest of them to our shop (34 mi) and Randolph the farthest (48 mi). All 10 are in Norfolk County with it. Milton has the oldest housing of them (typical 1945) and Walpole the newest (1977).
