Siding Contractor in Oxford, MA

Oxford (01540) is in Worcester County, about 6 miles east of our Charlton shop. It is the 2nd closest of the 109 towns we serve, and 49 miles from the coast. The towns next to it are Webster (5 mi), Charlton (6 mi), Auburn (6 mi), Sutton (6 mi), Dudley (6 mi). From the shop it is 6 road miles to the centre of Oxford, about 14 minutes without traffic, mostly on Oxford Road and Charlton Street.

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 Oxford sits about 509 feet above sea level, 376 feet lower than our shop. Oxford, 49 miles from salt water, is in that group.

The Census counts 5,160 homes in Oxford. The typical one was built in 1972, which makes Oxford's housing the 64th oldest of the 109 towns we serve; 43% went up before 1960 and 61% before 1980. 83% are lived in by their owners, and 20% are in two- to four-family buildings, the three-deckers and two-families this part of Massachusetts is known for. 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 Oxford, Millbury sits closest to the coast at 42 miles and Charlton farthest at 54; Charlton is the nearest of them to our shop (0 mi) and Douglas the farthest (13 mi).
