An Older Borough With Close Neighbors

Merchantville was incorporated in 1874 and named for the four Philadelphia merchants who developed it, making it one of the older boroughs in this part of the county. Many homes here have been updated more than once over the generations, and a compact borough means close neighbors, mature street trees, and lots where staging exterior work takes some planning.

For siding, that history and setting show up in a few ways. Walls may carry siding installed at different times, sometimes over older siding. Mature trees shade walls and fill gutters with leaves. Side walls close to the house next door can be hard to see and harder to reach. We plan around all of that, protect neighboring property, and keep debris contained.

When the Fascia Is the Real Problem

Homeowners often call about siding when the trouble actually starts at the roof edge. A few signs point to fascia rather than siding:

Paint peeling or wood darkening along the board directly behind the gutter
Gutters that sag, tilt, or pull away from the house
Stains or rot on the top course of siding just below the roof edge
Gaps between the fascia and the soffit where birds or insects get in
Siding at the top of the wall that is loose because the board it was attached to has softened

Fascia rot is most often caused by gutters that overflow, leak at the seams, or were installed without a drip edge behind them. Under mature trees, leaf-clogged gutters are the usual suspect. Because we also handle gutters and roofing, we can repair the fascia, the gutter, and the siding below together.

Vinyl Siding Repair

Vinyl panels hook onto the course below and are nailed loosely through slotted holes, which lets them expand and contract with the seasons. A damaged panel can usually be unlocked and replaced without disturbing the rest of the wall. 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 replacement 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 hidden side 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 fix the water source.

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.

Loose: panels lifting or rattling in wind
Cracked: splits from impact or falling limbs
Warped: waves on sunny walls or melted spots near grills
Missing: sections torn away by wind
Trim damage: loose corner posts, split J-channel
Mildew: growth on walls shaded by trees or neighboring houses

Storm and Wind Damage

Summer thunderstorms and nor’easters can lift loose siding and peel it from corners and gables, and limbs from mature street trees can crack panels and pull gutters loose. 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. When they are missing or damaged, water soaks the sheathing. We check:

Gutters, drip edge, and fascia above the wall
Kick-out flashing at roof-to-wall joints
Window and door flashing
The bottom course and its clearance above soil and walks
Openings for vents, lights, and pipes

Our Merchantville gutter cleaning page explains how gutters protect walls, and our Merchantville roofing page covers roof-edge repairs.

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 is trapped between older and newer siding layers
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 sheathing can be inspected. We repair the sheathing, install a weather-resistive barrier, flash windows, doors, 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 Merchantville construction office, and we can discuss it during your estimate.

Seasonal Care

Spring: rinse mildew from shaded walls and look for winter damage.
Summer: trim branches back from walls and the roof edge.
Fall: clean gutters once the street trees drop their leaves, then check again later in the season.
Winter: keep snow piles off siding.

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

Working on a Compact Lot

On a small lot, planning makes all the difference. We talk with you about where ladders and materials can go, how to protect your plantings and your neighbor’s, and whether a neighbor should know when work is scheduled. Debris is collected as we go, open walls are covered at the end of each day, and we sweep for fasteners before leaving.

Siding Layers on Older Homes

When newer siding has been installed over older siding, a repair can turn up surprises. Water that got behind the outer layer may have been trapped against the older material, and the damage can extend farther than it looks from outside. When we open a wall and find older siding beneath, we show you what is there and explain the choices, from patching and resealing the area to opening a larger section so the sheathing can be repaired and properly wrapped. You decide with the facts in front of you.

Downspouts on Tight Lots

On a compact lot, where a downspout empties matters. A downspout that discharges against the foundation or into a narrow side yard can soak your wall, your neighbor’s, or both. Extensions, splash blocks, or rerouting can carry water away from the house. Since we handle gutters too, we can adjust downspouts as part of a siding repair.

The Estimate

At your free estimate, we look at the damage, the fascia and gutters above it, the trim around it, 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
Fascia is soft or peeling behind the gutter
Gutters are sagging or pulling away
