Look beyond the damaged board.

Loose or deteriorating siding deserves a closer look. SCS documents the condition and explains the repair or replacement before you commit.

Horizontal siding, window trim and brick on residential homes

SCS · Siding

Know the work. Know what you’re paying for.

Make the right repair for the condition.

A visible problem is the starting point. Understand the surrounding siding, trim and material choices before deciding how much work is needed.

Siding repairs

Review loose, damaged or deteriorating areas and whether a targeted repair is appropriate for the surrounding condition.

Replacement

When broader work is needed, compare the scope, materials and how the new siding will meet the rest of the home.

Trim & transitions

Include the visible details around corners, windows and adjoining surfaces in the discussion before work starts.

Before you approve the work

  • Repair limits and material matching
  • Trim, transitions and finishing included
  • How additional findings will be explained and priced

What you don’t see matters.

A finished surface only tells part of the story. Take a look at the details you’re trusting someone to get right.

01 / Wall

Understand what supports the siding.

The wall behind the siding matters. Its condition helps determine the repairs and preparation needed before it is covered.

Ask before you commit

How will the condition behind the old siding be documented?

02 / Protection

Look at the details around the openings.

The weather barrier and details around the window are part of this illustrated wall. The assembly should follow the chosen system and the conditions at your home.

Ask before you commit

How are the wall and window transitions included in the scope?

03 / Siding

Build the visible surface over a clear plan.

Horizontal lap siding is shown as one example. Material, layout and installation details are selected for the actual project.

Ask before you commit

Which siding material and profile are we agreeing to?

04 / Trim

Finish the corners and transitions.

Trim brings the edges and openings together. Review the completed surfaces and finishing details with your project manager.

The SCS siding process

Understand the condition before covering it.

01

Document the damage

Inspect the visible siding and surrounding areas. Explain the findings with photos.

02

Agree on the scope

Discuss repair and replacement where both make sense. Put materials, limits and price in writing.

03

Install & review

Keep you informed of additional findings and walk the completed siding work with you.

Siding questions

Understand what needs replacing.

Can you repair a section instead of replacing all the siding?

That depends on the damage, surrounding condition and availability of matching material. Your project manager will explain when a localized repair makes sense.

Will new siding match what is already on the house?

Material, profile, color and weathering affect the match. Review the available options and any visible differences before approving the work.

What happens if more damage is found underneath?

Your project manager should explain the condition and any change to the work or price before proceeding with additional repairs.
