We’ve spent over 30 years understanding exactly what Maryland’s Eastern Shore throws at your home. We’re not just another contractor – we’re your neighbors who know that coastal humidity, salt spray, and temperature swings that hit 20-30 degrees in a single week require siding that’s built different.

We’ve seen what happens when siding fails in Friendship. The moisture damage, the energy waste, the emergency repairs during storms. That’s why we only install materials and use techniques that actually work in our climate, not what works everywhere else.
We start with a thorough inspection of your home’s current condition and your specific needs. No generic estimates – we factor in your home’s exposure to Eastern Shore weather patterns, existing damage, and your long-term goals.
Next comes material selection based on what actually performs in Maryland’s climate. We’ll explain the real differences between vinyl, fiber cement, and wood options, including how each handles our humidity, temperature swings, and coastal conditions.
Installation happens with crews who understand Maryland building codes and weather resistance requirements. We remove old siding safely, prep surfaces properly, and install new siding with attention to moisture barriers and proper ventilation.
The final walkthrough ensures every detail meets our standards before we consider the job complete. You get documentation of warranties, maintenance guidelines, and our direct contact for any future questions.

Vinyl siding remains popular in Friendship for good reason – it handles our humidity without warping, resists salt spray from coastal proximity, and comes with lifetime warranties from manufacturers who test their products to survive 110 mph winds. Modern vinyl offers dozens of colors and styles, many mimicking wood grain without the maintenance headaches.
Fiber cement siding delivers maximum durability for homeowners who want the ultimate in storm protection. It’s fire-resistant, termite-proof, and handles Maryland’s freeze-thaw cycles better than most alternatives. The upfront investment pays off through decades of reliable performance.
Wood siding appeals to homeowners wanting classic aesthetics, but requires commitment to regular maintenance in our climate. When properly maintained, wood siding can last decades and significantly boost curb appeal, though it demands more attention than synthetic alternatives.
All our installations include proper insulation consideration, moisture barriers, and ventilation designed specifically for Eastern Shore conditions. We don’t use generic approaches – every installation accounts for local humidity patterns, wind exposure, and seasonal temperature variations.
Siding installation in the Friendship area typically ranges from $5,000 to $15,000 for most homes, with larger homes or those requiring significant prep work potentially exceeding $15,000. The final cost depends on your home’s size, the material you choose, and the condition of your existing siding.
Vinyl siding offers the most cost-effective option, while fiber cement and wood siding cost more upfront but may provide better long-term value in Maryland’s challenging climate. We provide detailed, transparent estimates that break down material costs, labor, and any additional work needed like insulation or moisture barrier upgrades.
Keep in mind that quality siding installation can return up to 80% of your investment when you sell your home, while also reducing energy costs and maintenance expenses over the years.
Maryland’s Eastern Shore presents unique challenges with hot, humid summers exceeding 90°F, freeze-thaw cycles, salt spray, and temperature swings of 20-30 degrees within a week. Each siding material responds differently to these conditions.
Vinyl siding performs exceptionally well here because it doesn’t absorb moisture, resists salt corrosion, and expands and contracts without cracking. Modern vinyl products are tested to withstand winds up to 110 mph and often come with lifetime warranties. It’s also the lowest maintenance option – no painting, staining, or regular treatments required.
Fiber cement siding offers maximum durability and handles our climate extremes better than most alternatives. It’s fire-resistant, termite-proof, and won’t warp or crack from humidity changes. While more expensive initially, it can last 50+ years with minimal maintenance in our conditions.
Most siding installations in Friendship take 2-7 days depending on your home’s size, the material chosen, and the complexity of the project. A typical single-family home with vinyl siding usually completes within 3-5 days under normal weather conditions.
Several factors can affect timing: removing existing siding, making repairs to underlying structure, installing new insulation or moisture barriers, and working around Maryland’s weather patterns. We schedule projects to avoid peak storm seasons when possible and have backup plans for weather delays.
Complex projects involving multiple siding types, extensive trim work, or significant prep work may take longer. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your estimate and keep you updated throughout the process. Our goal is quality installation, not rushing through your project.
Yes, we work directly with insurance companies to help homeowners navigate storm damage claims. With over 30 years of experience on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, we understand what insurance adjusters look for and how to document damage properly.
We’ll inspect your siding damage, take detailed photos, and provide written assessments that insurance companies can use to process your claim. Our documentation includes specific details about weather-related damage versus normal wear, which can be crucial for claim approval.
We handle communication with your insurance company throughout the process, attend adjuster meetings when needed, and ensure the approved work meets both insurance requirements and our quality standards. This service takes the stress out of dealing with storm damage while ensuring you get the coverage you deserve.
Siding maintenance in Maryland depends on the material, but our humid, salt-influenced climate requires more attention than drier regions. Vinyl siding needs the least maintenance – annual washing with soap and water removes salt buildup, mold, and mildew that thrive in our humidity.
Wood siding requires regular staining or painting every 3-5 years to prevent moisture damage and decay. Inspect wood siding twice yearly for signs of rot, loose boards, or areas where moisture might penetrate. Our coastal humidity accelerates wood deterioration without proper maintenance.
Fiber cement siding needs periodic cleaning and caulk inspection but requires minimal maintenance otherwise. Check trim areas and joints annually for gaps that might allow moisture intrusion during our heavy rain seasons.
All siding types benefit from keeping vegetation trimmed back to allow air circulation, cleaning gutters to prevent overflow damage, and addressing minor issues before they become major problems in our challenging climate.
We bring over 30 years of specific experience with Maryland’s Eastern Shore conditions. We’re not a generic contractor trying to apply one-size-fits-all solutions – we understand how coastal humidity, salt spray, temperature extremes, and severe weather affect different siding materials.
