Siding Replacement
Process
Understanding what happens from consultation through final walk-through makes your project predictable. Clear steps, trained crews, and daily communication throughout.

What Happens During Siding Replacement

A clear process means predictable timelines, cleaner finishes, and results that last. When wall prep happens correctly and panels get installed with the right spacing, you avoid problems later.
For over 10,000 homeowners across Canton, Ann Arbor, Toledo, and surrounding areas, this approach delivers consistent results. The steps stay the same; what changes is how we adapt them to your home's size, style, and current condition.

How Does Siding Replacement Start

We start with an in-home consultation. We measure your exterior, check wall conditions, and talk about why you're replacing—age, damage, or a style update.

01.

Soft sheathing around windows

We check for soft or damaged sheathing near window frames — a common sign of moisture intrusion that can weaken structural integrity and lead to costly repairs if not addressed early.

02.

Water stains near the foundation

Visible stains or discoloration near the foundation often indicate poor drainage or leaks. Identifying these early helps prevent long-term water damage and protects your home’s base structure.

03.

Gaps in existing housewrap

We inspect for gaps or tears in your current housewrap, which can allow air and moisture to enter your walls. Proper sealing ensures better insulation, energy efficiency, and overall weather protection.

Preparing for Installation

Every project begins with a complete tear-off of old siding, trim, and fasteners. The crew removes debris daily and inspects the sheathing underneath for any damage. This step ensures the walls are sound and ready for new material.

Weather Protection Setup

After repairs, a weather-resistive barrier is installed in horizontal layers with overlapping seams and sealed openings. This creates a water-shedding system that directs moisture safely down and out at the base of the wall, keeping your home dry and protected.

Installing the Vinyl Panels

Installation begins at the bottom with a starter strip. Each panel interlocks with the one below and is fastened through the top slots — never too tightly — allowing for natural expansion and contraction in heat.

What Preparation Is Needed Before Installing Siding

Once you approve the project, we finalize measurements and develop the prep plan. This determines material quantities, tear-off scope, and wall prep sequence.

Tear-off

We remove old siding and inspect what's underneath. If sheathing is soft or rotting, it gets replaced before new material goes up. Compromised sheathing won't hold fasteners and lets moisture reach framing.

Weather-resistive barrier

Housewrap that sheds water while letting vapor escape. We overlap seams the way the manufacturer requires and tape all penetrations.

Flashing

Windows, doors, vents, and penetrations need properly placed flashing that pushes water outward—not trapped between layers. This is where most water problems start when installers skip steps.

What Happens After Siding Is Installed

The final walk-through is your chance to review everything. We'll walk the outside, pointing out trim work and corners. If something doesn't look right, we fix it immediately.
Final Walk-Through

After installation, we’ll walk the exterior with you, reviewing trim, corners, and finishes. If anything needs adjustment, our team fixes it immediately to ensure everything meets our quality standards.

Easy Maintenance

Keep your siding looking great with simple upkeep — rinse panels once or twice a year, clean with mild soap and a soft brush, and check caulk around windows annually for long-term protection.

Warranty & Support

You’ll receive your manufacturer and Lifetime Workmanship warranties before we leave. Our Gold Standard Protection Plan includes annual inspections, priority repairs, transferable coverage, and a 24–48 hour response time.

How Long Does Siding Replacement Take

We can finish a standard siding project within 3-5 business days, typically. Smaller homes finish faster; larger homes with complex details take longer.

Home size — 1,200 sq ft ranch vs 3,000 sq ft two-story
Window/door count — each needs trim work and flashing
Soffit/fascia replacement — adds 1-2 days
Weather — extreme cold, heavy storms, or high winds stop work
Wall repairs — extensive rot adds time
