- My original Derry siding is faded and brittle — repair or replace?
- Age-brittle vinyl usually answers this itself: repairs need panels flexible enough to unlock and relock, and 25-year-old siding tends to crack when handled — plus replacement panels won’t match three decades of UV fade. Isolated impact damage on newer siding is repairable; systemic fading, cracking, and warping across walls means the material is done. We’ll tell you which situation you have at a free look, and “it’s got a few years left” is an answer we actually give.
- What does a full siding replacement include in Derry?
- The whole envelope, itemized in writing: tear-off to the sheathing, substrate inspection with photo documentation of any rot (priced before we proceed, never after), new house wrap, starter strips, J-channel and corner posts, the siding itself installed to manufacturer spec, and window/door trim, soffit, and fascia wrapped or replaced to match. That last item is where quotes quietly differ — new walls with the old weathered trim left in place is the classic budget-bid tell.
