Expert Siding in Danvers, Massachusetts

Sometimes. On a saltbox colonials we can often match a single elevation closely enough that it reads as original. Where the existing material has faded past matching, we will say so rather than sell you a repair you will be unhappy with.

The three we see most often here: original siding that has gone brittle and no longer holds a fastener; nail heads driven through the nailing hem, which locks a course in place until it buckles; and trim and fascia rot that only becomes visible once the old siding comes off. Locally, salt air corrosion on exterior materials comes up repeatedly on saltbox colonials.

You get a 25 to 50 year manufacturer warranty on the material and 5 years on our labour. Both are in writing at handover. The workmanship warranty is ours, not a third party's, and it is the one that actually gets used.

We work out of Charlton, 28 miles away — under an hour. That matters mostly for the unglamorous parts: getting back out for a warranty call, or being on site when the inspector is.

Plan on a little over a week for an average two-storey home. Essex County weather does move schedules — the freeze-thaw cycle running on top of constant salt exposure, which is harder on trim than on the field of a wall is the usual reason — so we build a weather margin into the date we give you rather than promising one we cannot hold.

We do not. Every crew is on our payroll, which is why the standard does not drop between the first elevation and the last, and why you are not meeting new faces halfway through.
