Expert Siding in Wakefield, Massachusetts

Plan on seven to ten days on site, weather permitting. Essex County weather does move schedules — nor'easters that load a wall with water and wind from the same direction for hours is the usual reason — so we build a weather margin into the date we give you rather than promising one we cannot hold.

The three we see most often here: wall sheathing that has taken on water behind a failed housewrap; original siding that has gone brittle and no longer holds a fastener; and a wall that was furred out unevenly, so the new courses telegraph every dip. Locally, salt air corrosion on exterior materials comes up repeatedly on saltbox colonials.

All of it, including West Wakefield, South Wakefield, East Wakefield and the rest of ZIP 01880. We also work throughout Essex County.

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.

No — our own people, start to finish. Subcontracting is how a schedule slips and how nobody ends up owning a defect.

Our Wakefield projects generally land at $12,000–$28,000 for a typical single-family exterior. The spread comes down to size, material and what we find once the old work comes off — which is why our written quote includes an agreed rate for hidden damage rather than a guess. Estimates are free and we do not price on the doorstep.
