The Siding Installation Process: What Homeowners Should Expect
When you’re working with Scott’s Siding & Remodeling for an investment in new siding at your home in Worcester or elsewhere in the Central Massachusetts area, you may be wondering what to expect from the process. As a locally owned and operated company, we have long maintained a commitment to providing homeowners in our community with stress-free siding projects, so you can feel good about what you’re setting yourself up for. When you partner with us, here’s some of what you can expect from the siding installation process:
Initial Consultation & Inspection
We’ll start the siding installation process with an initial consultation, which includes an inspection of your home’s current siding. This consultation will also allow us to take measurements for your new siding, plus we will discuss the siding options available to you, as well as your goals, budget, and preferences for the project ahead. By the end of this initial meeting, we’ll provide you with a detailed estimate so that you know what to expect regarding the project’s scope, timeline, and cost. That way, there are no surprises when it comes time for the project itself.
Choosing Materials & Finalizing Details
Once you have a good idea of the siding materials and aesthetic options available to you, you can then go about narrowing down your choices and sharpening the vision you have for your upgrade. We can help you select your preferred material, the color that best suits your aesthetic tastes and your home’s exterior, and the style that works well with your home’s architecture. At this point, we can also discuss additional components of the project such as insulation, trim, and weather-resistant barriers so that you get a complete upgrade.
Preparing Your Home
Before your siding installation project begins in earnest, you’ll want to take some steps yourself to help everything go smoothly. Removing outdoor furniture, taking down décor from exterior walls, and having any surrounding landscaping trimmed back can help make life easier for the installation team. Also, your materials will be delivered ahead of the installation and we’ll set up the work area, which can involve taking measures to protect your windows, doors, and any other components of your home that are in the work area.
Removal of Your Old Siding & the Installation of Your New Siding
Once everything has been properly prepared and your materials have been delivered, we can get to work on the project itself. The first major step at this point is to remove your home’s current siding. At this stage, we’ll inspect the home’s sheathing and framing to check for any hidden damage. If any is found, we’ll complete repairs before moving forward. Once everything has been completed on that front, we can get to work on the siding installation. You can count on the Scott’s Siding & Remodeling team to complete the process with proper technique to ensure that you’re getting the flawless installation you deserve.
Cleanup & Final Inspection
Once the siding installation process is finished, we’ll thoroughly clean the work area so that everything is left the way we initially found it. From there, we can complete a walkthrough and make sure you’ve reviewed our work yourself, too, so that your satisfaction is confirmed before we call the job done. We’ll also leave you with maintenance tips and warranty information so that you’re left with some additional peace of mind.
