Siding Installation & Replacement Services in Valley Cottage

Siding replacement is one of the most common projects on Valley Cottage's postwar homes. Original aluminum siding from the 1950s-1970s is past its designed service life on many properties — hard to match for repairs, prone to denting, and frequently installed without proper moisture barriers behind it. A later wave of vinyl replacement siding from the 1980s and 1990s now represents another tier of Valley Cottage homes approaching 30-40 years and their next cycle. The hamlet's wooded hills character means shaded north-facing elevations retain moisture longer, promoting faster paint failure on wood and more active moisture intrusion on inadequately protected surfaces. 

Meridian Contracting installs and replaces siding throughout Valley Cottage in every major material.
