We Make It So Easy

Get an amazing home transformation in 5 steps

  1. 1 step
    Old Siding Removal

    First, our team removes your home’s existing siding, which takes anywhere from two to seven days, depending on the size of the project and the type of your siding. Some types of older siding, such as vinyl or cedar, can be removed quickly, while stucco and stone can take longer.

  2. 2 step
    Sheathing Damage Inspection

    Next, your existing sheathing is inspected for rot, mold or other damage. Fortunately, most homes do not require sheathing repair. However, if it is needed, it could result in a small additional cost. Of course, before we proceed, we will provide an estimate once the scope of the work is determined.

  3. 3 step
    Preparation of the Wall for Siding

    The next step in the siding installation process involves adding a rainscreen. This involves the use of building paper, flashings, and strapping/mesh. While optional, a rainscreen can greatly extend the lifespan of the siding by allowing airflow in the walls. Siding with a protective rainscreen can last up to 5-10 years longer compared to siding without one.

  4. 4 step
    Siding Installation and Touch-ups

    The next step is installing the siding itself, as well as trim boards around windows, doors, soffits, overcap corners, and fascia boards. We also put in insect screens, flashings, dryer vents, and light fixture boxes, and apply touch-up paint to the nails, matching the color of the siding to create a seamless, professional look.

  5. 5 step
    Waste Removal and Clean Up

    The final step is cleaning up your property. We remove and recycle all construction debris in accordance with the best practices in the siding industry.

FAQ

Our team is always available to assist and provide further details tailored to your specific needs.

What factors impact the cost of siding installation?

Your home’s size, the material you choose, architectural details, and any necessary repairs all influence pricing. Premium colors, insulated options, or complex trim work can also affect cost. We provide detailed, transparent estimates so you know exactly what you’re paying for.

How long does a siding project typically take?

Most projects take 2–4 weeks from consultation to completion, depending on material availability, weather, and your home’s complexity. You’ll get a clear timeline before we begin.

Are you licensed and insured in Tennessee?

Yes. We are fully licensed and insured in the state of Tennessee, including liability insurance and workers’ compensation coverage. This ensures your home is protected and all work is completed to state and industry standards.

Are there neighborhoods in Chattanooga with stricter exterior design rules?

Yes. Communities in areas like Northshore, Signal Mountain, Ooltewah, and certain historic districts often have guidelines for materials, siding styles, and colors. We help with documentation and approvals so your project moves forward smoothly.

Will siding replacement disrupt my landscaping or yard?

We work carefully around your yard and take steps to protect plants, mulch beds, and lawns. Any materials or dumpsters are placed strategically to minimize impact, and we clean up thoroughly after completion.

Can you help with design suggestions, colors, and profiles?

Yes. We’ll guide you through siding styles, color options, textures, and trim details that best complement your home’s architecture. We also offer complimentary design mockups, so you can see how different combinations will look on your home before making a final decision.

Does siding installation increase noise inside the home?

There will be some noise from removing old siding, nailing, and cutting materials, but most homeowners find it manageable. We work efficiently and communicate scheduling so you know what to expect each day.

Can I see Chattanooga-area homes using materials that perform well in this climate?

Yes. We can show you real examples of homes in the Chattanooga metro area that use materials specifically chosen for the local climate.
