Your siding performs a pair of tasks together, and merely one of those is visible. It sets what the property presents at the street — and it serves as the barrier that holds moisture away from the wall assembly behind it. When the exterior lets go, the damage almost never stays limited to the siding.

The Roofing Company carries out exterior work for homeowners across North Huntingdon Pennsylvania. We have deliberately centered this part of our exterior offering on James Hardie fiber-cement products, owing to how fiber cement behave in a climate like Pennsylvania’s.

The Reason We Lead With Fiber Cement Products

James Hardie fiber cement holds up differently from traditional vinyl and from timber in exactly the ways that matter here:

• It doesn't warp or melt under direct heat the way some vinyl products are able to.
• Winter movement is exactly the stress which wears down a lot of siding products in Pennsylvania, and Hardie board is made to handle it.
• Insects do not consume it, and it won't rot the way timber siding does.
• It keeps color considerably better than many alternatives, which reduces the work you face on it over the years.
• Fire performance — fiber cement is non-combustible, which weighs considerably more to certain families than others.

None of that survives a careless installation, though. Fiber cement has particular detailing standards — clearances, fastening, weather detailing, and joint treatment — and handling these details wrong negates the entire reason you paid for fiber cement to begin with. It may also jeopardize the factory guarantee.

Exterior Jobs We Perform

• Siding replacement – stripping the current siding, examining whatever is beneath, and putting up a new siding properly.
• Partial patch work – when the problem is localized and a full redo is genuinely not necessary.
• First-time exterior work.
• Exterior combined with roof work – scheduling the two at once frequently proves more economical on the timeline and around the budget.

The Places Siding Installations Fail

Just as with roof work, the failures are almost always found at the details rather than across the open areas:

• Flashing at windows and door openings. Rain which gets behind a frame and has nowhere to drain will remain within the structure.
• The house-wrap membrane under the siding. The exterior is not actually an impermeable skin; what sits beneath it does much of the actual protection.
• Clearances. Fiber cement carries defined distances at ground level, at rooflines, and at flat surfaces. Closing those up looks tidier and creates trouble later.
• Nailing plus joint handling. These are specified by the manufacturer with cause.

The Things That Drive the Siding Price

The material runs above vinyl in both for material and for the install — it is substantially heavier, cuts with different tooling, and has handling standards that absorb real time to meet. The variables beyond the material selection:

• Removing the old wall covering, along with the condition sits behind the existing siding. The wall board damage and a missing weather-resistive plane stay routine things to find and are not apparent beforehand.
• Trim scope. Corner treatments, window and door trim, frieze board and water table treatment. This represents the place an exterior project will either presents finished or it will reads unfinished, and trim is labor.
• Wall geometry. Gable ends, architectural returns, projections, and every additional penetration.
• Rainscreen or insulation plus rainscreen assemblies. Genuine assembly improvements worth considering when the wall is off, and possible at no other time.

The Ten-Year Workmanship Warranty

With this material, how it goes on is not a secondary question from the system — it determines if the factory coverage holds at all. This is why eligible exterior projects through The Roofing Company carry a 10-Year Installation Warranty. If a covered problem come back to our detailing inside those ten years, we return and correct it — the homeowner pays nothing.

A distinct manufacturer guarantee on the boards themselves applies in addition to the workmanship warranty, subject to the manufacturer's terms. Given that the product warranty does depend on proper workmanship, these are rather more linked than with other materials.
