Siding Contractor in Dudley, MA

Dudley (01571) is in Worcester County, about 7 miles south of our Charlton shop. It is the 3rd closest of the 109 towns we serve, and 53 miles from the coast. The towns next to it are Webster (2 mi), Oxford (6 mi), Charlton (7 mi), Douglas (9 mi), Sutton (11 mi). From the shop it is 7 road miles to the centre of Dudley, about 15 minutes without traffic, mostly on Route 31.

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 Dudley sits about 591 feet above sea level, 294 feet lower than our shop. Dudley, 53 miles from salt water, is in that group.

The Census counts 4,474 homes in Dudley. The typical one was built in 1967, which makes Dudley's housing the 45th oldest of the 109 towns we serve; 42% went up before 1960 and 67% before 1980. 73% are lived in by their owners, and 26% are in two- to four-family buildings, the three-deckers and two-families this part of Massachusetts is known for. With most of the housing built before 1980, many of these walls are on their second or third exterior, and lead-safe work practices matter: federal EPA rules apply to disturbing paint on homes built before 1978.
