Hear from Our Customers
You’re looking at a home that stays comfortable year-round, with energy bills that don’t spike every season. That’s what happens when siding installation is done right the first time.
Your property value increases significantly—studies show quality siding replacement delivers up to 88% return on investment when you sell. More importantly, you get peace of mind knowing your biggest investment is protected from Maryland’s harsh winters, humid summers, and unpredictable storms.
No more worrying about moisture damage, air leaks, or that constant cycle of painting and repairs. Just a home exterior that works as hard as you do.
We’ve been serving Maryland’s Eastern Shore since the early 1990s, and we’ve learned something important: homeowners in Lothian don’t want to deal with their siding twice.
That’s why we became one of the top 2% of contractors nationwide with our GAF Master Elite certification. It means enhanced warranties, ongoing training, and the kind of standards that separate real professionals from weekend warriors.
We’re family-owned, which means when we work on your neighbor’s house, our reputation is on the line right in your community. Lothian homeowners know they can count on us because we’ve been proving it for three decades—through every storm, every season, and every project.
First, we come out for a thorough assessment of your current siding and your home’s specific needs. We’re looking at everything—moisture issues, insulation gaps, structural concerns, and what materials will work best for your situation and budget.
Next, we walk you through material options that make sense for Lothian’s climate. Vinyl for low maintenance, fiber cement for maximum durability, or wood for traditional appeal. We explain the real differences, not just sales talk.
Installation starts with proper preparation—protecting your landscaping, ensuring clean work areas, and addressing any underlying issues before new siding goes up. Our crews work systematically, section by section, with daily cleanup because this is your home, not a construction zone. When we’re finished, you get a complete walkthrough and all warranty documentation, plus our direct contact information for any questions down the road.

You get complete siding installation that addresses Lothian’s specific challenges—humidity from the Chesapeake Bay, temperature swings, and occasional severe weather. We’re not just hanging siding; we’re creating a complete weather barrier system.
That includes proper insulation, moisture barriers, and ventilation that work together. Many Lothian homes were built before current energy standards, so we often upgrade insulation and air sealing while we’re replacing siding. It’s the difference between a cosmetic improvement and a real home performance upgrade.
We handle all permits, coordinate with your HOA if needed, and work directly with insurance companies when storm damage is involved. You also get manufacturer warranties plus our workmanship guarantee, and we maintain relationships with suppliers to ensure color matches and materials availability for future repairs.
Fiber cement performs exceptionally well in Lothian’s humid climate because it resists moisture, won’t rot or warp, and handles temperature changes without expanding and contracting like vinyl can. It’s also fire-resistant, which matters for insurance rates.
Vinyl siding is still an excellent choice if you want low maintenance and good value, especially the newer insulated versions that improve energy efficiency. The key is proper installation with adequate ventilation behind the siding to prevent moisture buildup.
Wood siding can work beautifully but requires more maintenance in our humid environment. Cedar naturally resists moisture better than other woods, but you’ll need to plan for regular staining or painting to maintain protection and appearance.
Most single-family homes in Lothian take 5-10 days for complete siding installation, depending on size, complexity, and weather. Ranch homes often finish faster, while two-story homes with multiple angles and architectural details take longer.
Weather delays are common in Maryland, especially during spring and fall when rain is frequent. We don’t install siding in wet conditions because moisture trapped behind new siding causes serious problems later.
We schedule projects with buffer time built in, and we’ll always communicate delays upfront. It’s better to wait for proper conditions than rush installation and compromise the long-term performance of your investment.
Yes, but the amount depends on your current situation and what type of siding system we install. Many older Lothian homes have minimal wall insulation, so adding insulated siding or upgrading insulation during siding replacement can significantly reduce heating and cooling costs.
Properly installed siding eliminates air leaks around windows, doors, and wall penetrations. These small gaps add up to major energy loss, especially in homes built before the 1990s when energy codes were less stringent.
We typically see the biggest energy improvements when we combine new siding with updated insulation and air sealing. The exact savings vary, but many homeowners notice lower utility bills within the first few months, especially during peak heating and cooling seasons.
Absolutely. We work directly with insurance companies and have extensive experience with storm damage claims in Maryland. We know what adjusters look for and how to document damage properly to ensure you get fair coverage.
We can meet with your adjuster, provide detailed estimates that match insurance requirements, and handle the paperwork that makes the process smooth. Many homeowners don’t realize their policies cover more than just obvious damage—things like hail damage to siding that isn’t immediately visible.
The key is acting quickly after storm events and working with contractors who understand insurance procedures. We’ve helped hundreds of Lothian area homeowners navigate claims successfully, and we know which insurance companies we work well with and which ones require more detailed documentation.
The main differences are in material quality, installation methods, and long-term support. Cheaper bids often use thinner materials, skip important steps like proper insulation and moisture barriers, or don’t include permits and insurance coverage.
We use premium materials with full manufacturer warranties, employ experienced crews who follow proper installation procedures, and carry comprehensive insurance. When problems arise years later, we’re still here and still accountable.
The real cost comparison isn’t just the initial price—it’s the total cost over 20-30 years including energy savings, maintenance, and potential problems. Quality siding installation costs more upfront but typically saves money long-term through better performance and fewer repairs.
Look for widespread issues rather than isolated problems. If you’re seeing multiple areas with cracking, warping, fading, or moisture damage, replacement usually makes more sense than patching individual sections.
Age is also a factor—vinyl siding typically lasts 20-30 years, wood siding needs replacement every 15-20 years depending on maintenance, and fiber cement can last 50+ years. If your siding is approaching these timeframes and showing wear, replacement often provides better value than extensive repairs.
We offer free assessments where we examine your entire siding system, not just the obvious problem areas. Sometimes what looks like minor damage is actually indicating larger issues with moisture intrusion or structural problems that need addressing during replacement.
