A Borough Built Since the 1890s

Residential development in Audubon began in the 1890s, after train stations opened and made it practical to live here and commute. Before that, the area was farmland, and two original farmhouses still stand: the Low-Stokes-Nicholson house, dating to about 1732, and the Mansion House, from about 1740 with an addition around 1853.

With more than a century of building, Audubon’s homes vary widely in age. Older houses may have original wood siding, sometimes under later siding, with trim and flashing that have been patched over the years. Newer homes may have vinyl or fiber cement. We tailor each repair to the house, matching what is there and paying attention to the seams where old and new work meet.

Vents in the Siding

Dryer vents, bathroom and kitchen exhaust vents, and other vent hoods pass through the siding, and they deserve more attention than they usually get. A dryer vent that is clogged with lint or has a stuck flap pushes warm, moist air back into the wall cavity and can stain the siding around it. Exhaust vents that terminate without a proper mounting block let water follow the duct into the wall. Vent hoods that crack or come loose leave an opening for rain, birds, and insects.

When we repair siding around vents, we make sure each one sits on a proper mounting block, that the hood is intact and closes properly, and that the opening is flashed and sealed so water stays out. Cleaning dryer vent ducts regularly also helps protect the wall around them.

Vinyl Siding Repair

Vinyl siding hangs loosely so it can move. Panels hook onto the course below and are nailed through slotted holes at the top. A damaged panel can usually be unlocked and replaced without disturbing the rest of the wall, and a loose but undamaged panel can often be reseated. Walls that ripple usually have courses nailed too tightly, and re-hanging them corrects it.

Vinyl fades in sunlight, and colors and profiles get discontinued, so a new panel may not match a weathered wall exactly. We show you the closest available match and discuss options, such as moving original panels from a back wall to the front.

Wood, Fiber Cement, and Aluminum

Wood and cedar can split, cup, or rot where water collects. We replace damaged pieces, prime and paint new wood as agreed, and correct the moisture source. If older painted surfaces will be disturbed, we discuss containment and cleanup, since homes built before 1978 may have lead-based paint.

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 with age. 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.

  • Loose: panels lifting or rattling in wind
  • Cracked: splits from impact
  • Warped: waves on sunny walls or melted spots near grills
  • Missing: sections torn away by wind
  • Vent problems: stained siding or loose hoods around vents
  • Peeling paint: on wood siding or trim

Storm and Wind Damage

Summer thunderstorms and nor’easters can lift loose siding and peel it from corners and gables, and limbs from mature trees crack panels and damage gutters. After a storm, check your walls from the ground and photograph damage before cleanup. Keep pieces that blew off. 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

The weather-resistive barrier and flashing behind siding carry water back out. Older walls may have little or no barrier. We check:

  1. Kick-out flashing at roof-to-wall joints
  2. Window and door flashing
  3. Vents and other wall penetrations
  4. Gutters that overflow onto walls
  5. The bottom course and its clearance above soil and walks

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

Soffit, Fascia, and Trim

Fascia boards close the roof edge and carry gutters; soffit closes the overhang and vents the attic. Rotted fascia lets gutters sag, and damaged soffit gives birds and insects a way in. We repair and replace soffit, fascia, and trim. Our Audubon roofing page covers roof work.

Repair or Replace?

Repair usually makes sense when damage is limited and the rest of the siding is sound. Replacement deserves discussion when:

  • Several walls are damaged or brittle
  • Moisture has damaged sheathing over large areas
  • Your siding can no longer be matched
  • Repairs keep 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 Installation and Replacement

On a full replacement, we remove the old siding, and if older layers are underneath, discuss removing them so the wall can be inspected. We repair the sheathing, install a weather-resistive barrier, flash windows, doors, vents, and roof-to-wall joints, and fasten new siding with room for expansion and contraction. We install vinyl, fiber cement, wood and cedar, and aluminum, and review product, profile, and color options with you during the estimate.

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

Seasonal Care

  • Spring: look for winter damage and check vent hoods.
  • Summer: keep grills away from vinyl and trim shrubs back.
  • Fall: clean gutters after leaves drop.
  • Winter: keep snow from piling against siding and vents.

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

Small Problems, Simple Repairs

A single loose panel or a cracked corner post may look minor, but wind works loose siding back and forth until it breaks the pieces around it, and a crack lets rain reach the barrier behind. Taking care of small problems promptly keeps repairs quick and protects the sheathing and framing. If you are not sure whether something needs attention, a free estimate is an easy way to find out.

Protecting Your Property

Before work starts, we talk about where equipment and materials will go and which plantings sit below the walls being repaired. We cover beds and walkways where debris could fall, collect scrap as we go, cover any open wall at the end of the day, and sweep for fasteners when the job is done.

On Repair Day

We confirm the scope, set up safe access, and protect plantings and walkways. Damaged siding is removed carefully, and with the wall open we check the barrier, flashing, and sheathing. If something unexpected turns up, we stop and show you. New siding and trim go on with correct fastening, vents are remounted properly, and we clean up before leaving.

The Estimate

At your free estimate, we look at the damage, the trim, vents, and flashing around it, the roof edge and gutters above, and the ground below. You receive a written estimate listing the work, materials, and how matching and hidden damage will be handled.

When to Call

  • Siding is missing, cracked, or hanging
  • Siding is stained around a vent
  • Panels flap in the wind
  • Trim or fascia is soft
  • Gutters are pulling away
