A Historic Borough

In 1971, Haddonfield voters approved a historic district, the second in New Jersey after Cape May. The Indian King Tavern, where the New Jersey Legislature declared independence in 1777, stands on Kings Highway, and in 1858 the borough was the site of the discovery of Hadrosaurus foulkii, the first relatively complete dinosaur skeleton found in North America.

For homeowners, that history often means older houses with wood siding, detailed trim, and exteriors that have been cared for over many decades. Our approach is to repair what can be repaired, match what is there as closely as practical, and fix the water problems that cause most siding damage. Permit requirements depend on scope, so check with the Haddonfield construction office before major exterior work; we can discuss it during your estimate.

Details That Protect Older Walls

Older wood-sided homes rely on a few traditional details to shed water. Knowing them helps you spot trouble:

  • Water table: a wide board at the bottom of the wall, often with a beveled cap, that kicks water away from the foundation. When its cap rots or its flashing fails, water gets behind the bottom courses.
  • Corner boards: vertical boards at the corners that receive the ends of the clapboards. Gaps or failed paint at their joints let water into end grain.
  • Drip caps: small moldings or flashing above window and door heads that direct water outward. Missing or rotted drip caps are a common source of leaks around openings.
  • Frieze and cornice: trim along the top of the wall and roof edge. Overflowing gutters often rot these first.

When we repair siding on an older home, we look at these details and restore them, because they do much of the work of keeping the wall dry.

Wood Siding Repair

Wood clapboard and shingles can be repaired piece by piece. We match exposure and profile as closely as practical, prime new wood on all sides including cut ends, and paint to blend as part of the agreed scope. If paint keeps failing in one area, we look for moisture from behind or above. Homes built before 1978 may have lead-based paint; if a repair will disturb painted surfaces, we discuss containment and cleanup at the estimate.

Vinyl Siding Repair

Vinyl panels hook onto the course below and are fastened loosely through slotted holes so they can expand and contract. A damaged panel can usually be unlocked and replaced on its own. Walls that ripple usually have courses nailed too tightly and need to be re-hung. Vinyl fades and colors and profiles are discontinued, so a new panel may not match a weathered wall exactly; we show you the closest available match and options first.

Fiber Cement and Aluminum

Fiber cement resists rot but can crack from impact or at joints. We replace damaged boards, seal joints as required, and repaint. Aluminum dents easily and its finish chalks; we replace damaged sections and tell you if an older profile is hard to match.

Recognizing Siding Problems

General homeowner information; we confirm causes on site.

  • Split, cupped, or missing clapboards and shingles
  • Peeling paint that returns in the same places
  • Soft wood at the water table, sills, or corner boards
  • Stains below windows lacking drip caps
  • Loose or cracked vinyl, dented aluminum
  • Rot along the frieze or cornice below gutters

Storm and Wind Damage

Summer thunderstorms and nor’easters can lift loose siding and boards, and limbs from mature trees crack siding and damage gutters. After a storm, check your walls from the ground and photograph damage before cleanup. Keep pieces that came off; on older homes they help with matching. Do not climb ladders or go onto the roof.

If you file an insurance claim, the insurer decides what is covered. We can document what we find, explain the repairs needed to protect the wall, and provide a written estimate.

Moisture Behind Siding

Older walls may have little or no weather-resistive barrier, so siding, paint, trim details, and flashing do most of the work. We check:

  1. Drip caps and flashing above windows and doors
  2. Flashing where porch roofs and additions meet walls
  3. Gutters that overflow onto cornices and walls
  4. The water table and its flashing
  5. Openings for vents, lights, and pipes

Because we also repair roofs and gutters, we can fix the source. Our Haddonfield gutter cleaning page explains how gutters protect walls.

Soffit, Fascia, and Cornice

Fascia carries gutters, soffits close the eaves, and on older homes cornices and moldings finish the roof edge. We repair and replace these pieces, matching profiles as closely as practical. Our Haddonfield roofing page covers roof repairs.

Repair or Replace?

On most older Haddonfield homes, careful repair is the right first step. Replacement is worth discussing when rot or damage is widespread, the sheathing is damaged over large areas, or later vinyl or aluminum cannot be matched and is failing. We do not decide from a photo. At a free siding estimate, we look at the siding and the wall behind damaged areas and explain the options.

Siding Replacement

When replacement is the answer, we remove the old siding, repair the sheathing, install a weather-resistive barrier, flash windows, doors, and roof-to-wall joints, and install new siding with appropriate fastening. We install wood and cedar, fiber cement, vinyl, and aluminum, and review product, profile, and color options with you during the estimate.

Near the Cooper River and the Ponds

The Cooper River forms the borough’s border with Cherry Hill, and Hopkins Pond, Driscoll Pond, Evans Pond, and Wallworth Lake lie in or along the borough. Homes near water and parkland often sit under mature trees, with shaded walls that dry slowly and gutters that fill each fall. Keeping gutters clear and branches trimmed helps those walls stay sound.

Seasonal Care

  • Spring: look for split boards and peeling paint after winter.
  • Summer: keep shrubs trimmed so walls can dry.
  • Fall: clean gutters after leaves drop from mature trees.
  • Winter: keep snow piles off the water table and bottom course.

Inspect from the ground only. For upper walls, call a professional.

Porches and Additions on Older Homes

Many older houses have front porches, rear additions, or enclosed sun porches added over the years. Each one creates joints where a roof meets a wall or where newer construction meets older siding, and those joints need proper flashing to keep water out. Porch ceilings and trim also take a beating when gutters above them overflow. When we repair siding near these features, we check the flashing and trim and explain anything that needs attention.

The Estimate and What Follows

At your free estimate, we look at the damage, the trim details and flashing around it, the roof edge and gutters above, and the ground below. You receive a written estimate listing the work, materials, how matching will be handled, and what happens if hidden damage is found once the wall is opened. On repair day, we protect plantings and walkways, remove only what has failed, check the wall behind, and clean up before we leave.

When to Call

  • Boards or shingles are split, loose, or missing
  • Paint keeps peeling in the same spots
  • Trim, sills, or the water table are soft
  • Gutters are pulling away
  • Stains appear below windows or roof edges
