Expert Siding Services in Somerville, MA

We have worked on enough Somerville exteriors to know what tends to be waiting behind the old material. Housing here runs to colonial revivals and cape cod cottages, much of it 40-80 years old. Add the full New England temperature range, from below zero in January to the low nineties in July, and the details that matter become obvious.

The reason we push people toward a local contractor for siding installation is not loyalty to the idea — it is that the failures we get called out to fix are almost always detail failures, and details are what a crew working forty miles from home stops caring about at four in the afternoon. On Somerville homes specifically, aging clapboard siding and single-pane windows from the 1960s are what we plan around before a crew is booked. We do not subcontract. That is the whole reason we can hold a start date and the reason the standard does not drop between the first elevation and the last.

Comprehensive Siding Services in Somerville, MA

Concretely, on a Somerville project that means insulated backing where the wall assembly can take it, for a real gain in comfort; correct fastener spacing and expansion gaps, which is what keeps a wall flat in year ten; full tear-off down to the sheathing so nothing rotten stays hidden behind new material. Materials are rated for the New England climate zone, and we account for freeze-thaw cycling that opens any joint left unsealed. It is all standard practice. The difference is that it gets done on every elevation, including the one facing the neighbour's fence that nobody inspects.

What We Offer

Insulated vinyl siding (CertainTeed, Alside)
James Hardie fiber cement installation
Engineered wood and cedar shingle
Complete tear-off and disposal
Sheathing and rot repair
Trim, soffit and fascia
Drainable housewrap and flashing
Colour matching for partial elevations

Why Somerville Trusts Maia Construction

From the Charlton shop, Somerville is roughly half an hour. We have jobs behind us in North Somerville, East Somerville, South Somerville. That distance is mostly about the boring things: being there for the inspection, and coming back out under warranty without it being an expedition. Licensed under MA HIC #204634, fully insured, and rated 5.0 on Google across 19 reviews. Estimates are free, written, and there is no second visit from a closer.

Our Siding Process in Somerville

01

Walk the exterior with you

We start at the worst corner. What the failure looks like there usually tells us what the rest of the wall is doing.

02

Written scope and fixed price

Materials, colours, trim profiles and the rot-repair rate are all in writing before anything is ordered.

03

Permit and scheduling

We file with your building department and give you a start date we can actually hold.

04

Protection and tear-off

Old siding comes off, the sheathing gets inspected, and you see anything we find before we cover it back up.

05

Weather barrier and flashing

Housewrap, taped seams, and flashing at every opening and transition.

06

Installation, inspection and cleanup

Installation to manufacturer spec, municipal inspection, then a full site cleanup before we invoice.

Cost Range

$12,000–$28,000 for a typical single-family exterior

Timeline

about a week, longer where the trim work is intricate

Warranty

a 25 to 50 year manufacturer warranty on the material and 5 years on our labour

Siding FAQs — Somerville, MA

Common questions from Somerville homeowners about siding

What parts of Somerville do you cover?

All of it, including Somerville Center, South Somerville, East Somerville and the rest of ZIP 02143. We also work throughout Middlesex County.

Are you actually local to Somerville?

We work out of Charlton, 21 miles away — roughly half an hour. That matters mostly for the unglamorous parts: getting back out for a warranty call, or being on site when the inspector is.

What happens if you find rot once you have started?

You see it before we cover it. The rate for hidden damage is written into the contract up front, precisely so nobody is negotiating while the house is open.

Do you use subcontractors?

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.

What usually goes wrong with siding on homes in Somerville?

The three we see most often here: previous work installed too tight, leaving the material no room to move; original siding that has gone brittle and no longer holds a fastener; and wall sheathing that has taken on water behind a failed housewrap. Locally, aging clapboard siding comes up repeatedly on colonial revivals.

Do you pull the permits, or do I?

That is on us. We pull the permit from Somerville, sequence the inspections around the work, and attend them. A contractor who asks you to pull your own permit is telling you something.
