How a Siding Repair Visit Works

Homeowners often ask what happens after they call. Here is the usual sequence:

1. You describe the problem. A photo taken from the ground helps us understand what to expect, but it does not replace seeing the wall.
2. We look at the siding and the cause. We check the damaged area, the trim around it, and what is above it: roof edge, gutters, windows.
3. We explain the options. That might be a simple panel swap, a re-hang of loose courses, a trim repair, or, when damage is widespread, a conversation about siding replacement.
4. You get a written estimate. It lists the scope so you know exactly what will be done.
5. We schedule the work. Matching materials are ordered when needed, and the wall is closed up and protected at the end of each workday.

A Township With Many Housing Eras

Lakewood’s housing spans more than a century. The downtown includes buildings such as the Strand Theater, which dates to 1922. In the 1960s, large housing developments replaced woods and cranberry bogs, and Leisure Village, a condominium retirement community, opened in 1963. Much more housing has been built since.

That range means siding problems vary from street to street. Older homes may have wood or aluminum siding, or vinyl added over the original cladding. Developments built decades ago may have siding and trim that are reaching the age where panels become brittle and corners loosen. Newer homes may have issues tied to how flashing and house wrap were installed. We do not assume; we look.

If you live in a condominium or association community, check your governing documents or ask the association who is responsible for exterior siding repairs before scheduling work. We are happy to provide an estimate for whoever handles it.

Lakes, Rivers, and Moisture

The North Branch of the Metedeconk River forms Lakewood’s northern boundary, the South Branch and Kettle Creek run through town, and the township is dotted with lakes, including Lake Carasaljo, Lake Manetta, Lake Shenandoah, and Lake Waddill. Homes near water and under heavy tree cover can stay damp longer after rain, which encourages mildew on siding and slows drying of wood trim. Keeping gutters clear, trimming back branches, and making sure the wall can drain and dry all help.

Vinyl Siding Repair

Vinyl is the most common siding we are asked to repair. Panels interlock and hang loosely from slotted nail holes, so they can move with temperature. A cracked or blown-off panel can usually be unlocked and replaced individually. Waves across a wall are often caused by tight fastening and are fixed by re-hanging the affected courses with proper clearance.

Vinyl fades over time, and colors and profiles are sometimes discontinued. A new panel may not match a weathered wall exactly. We will show you the closest available match and talk through practical choices, like moving original panels to a visible wall and placing new ones where they are less noticeable.

Fiber Cement, Wood and Cedar, Aluminum

• Fiber cement: rigid boards that can crack from impact or at joints. We replace damaged boards, seal as required, and repaint.
• Wood and cedar: clapboard and shingles that can split, cup, or rot. We replace damaged pieces and find out why water was sitting there.
• Aluminum: dents and faded finishes are common. We replace damaged pieces and tell you if an older profile is hard to match.

Common Siding Damage Homeowners Report

General homeowner information; we confirm the cause on site.

• Loose panels that move in the wind or have unlocked at the bottom
• Cracks and holes, often from impact near ground level
• Warped or buckled walls, sometimes near grills or reflective windows
• Missing siding after storms
• Split corner posts and gaps around windows and doors
• Mildew streaks that return on shaded walls

When Siding Was Installed Over Older Siding

On some older houses, newer siding was installed directly over the original wood or other cladding. That is not automatically a problem, but it changes how a repair goes. When we open a damaged section, we may find the old siding underneath, with or without a layer of house wrap between. If water has been getting trapped between the layers, the damage can be larger than it looks from outside.

In those cases, we show you what we found before going further and explain the choices: patch and reseal the area, or open a larger section to repair the sheathing and install a proper weather-resistive barrier. On a full replacement, removing both layers lets us check the sheathing directly and start fresh with correct flashing. Either way, you decide with the facts in front of you, not after the fact.

Storm Damage to Siding

Wind from nor’easters and summer thunderstorms can lift loose siding and tear it off, and falling branches from mature trees can crack panels, dent trim, and damage gutters. After a storm, check your house from the ground, take photos before anything is moved, and stay off ladders. If you file an insurance claim, your insurer decides coverage. We can document the damage and provide a written estimate for the repairs needed to protect the wall.

Moisture Intrusion: Where It Starts

Water that reaches behind siding is supposed to drain out over the weather-resistive barrier. When the barrier is torn or the flashing is missing, it soaks into the sheathing instead. Typical sources:

• No kick-out flashing where a roof edge meets a wall
• Poorly flashed windows and doors
• Gutters that overflow and soak the wall below
• Cracked or missing siding pieces
• Siding that sits too close to soil or mulch

We also repair roofs and gutters, so we can handle the source in the same project. Our Lakewood gutter cleaning page explains more.

Soffit and Fascia

Rotted fascia lets gutters sag; damaged soffit lets animals and insects into the attic. We repair and replace both and check whether a roof or gutter problem caused the damage. Our Lakewood roofing page covers roof repairs.

Repair Versus Replacement

For a few damaged pieces on sound siding, repair is the practical choice. Siding replacement becomes worth discussing when damage covers several walls, the siding is brittle, the sheathing has moisture damage over a large area, or matching is not possible. We do not decide without seeing the house. At the free siding estimate, we show you what we find and explain the options.

Siding Installation and Replacement

On a replacement, we remove the old siding, inspect and repair sheathing, install a weather-resistive barrier, flash openings and roof-to-wall joints, and fasten new siding with room for expansion. We install vinyl, fiber cement, wood and cedar, and aluminum, and go over product, profile, and color options at the estimate. Soffit, fascia, and trim can be replaced at the same time.

Permit requirements depend on scope. Check with the Lakewood construction office, and we can discuss it during your estimate.

Caring for Siding Through the Year

• Spring: rinse mildew from shaded walls with a hose and soft brush.
• Summer: keep grills and outdoor heaters well away from vinyl.
• Fall: clean gutters after leaves drop and trim branches touching the house.
• Winter: keep snow piles and shovels away from siding, which is more brittle in cold weather.

Check from the ground. Leave ladder work to professionals.
