Siding in Manchester, NH

Manchester, NH’s West Side and North End are lined with 80-to-120-year-old homes whose siding has been protecting them for generations — and A&E Home Improvement handles a steady volume of siding replacement there year-round. We’re an insured, owner-operated contractor from Tilton, and on homes this age the job is never just cosmetic: we strip to the sheathing, inspect for the rot that old clapboard hides, photograph and price anything we find before proceeding, install new house wrap, and finish with vinyl or fiber cement plus wrapped trim, soffit, and fascia so the whole envelope is done — not just the visible part.

Siding questions from Manchester homeowners

Will new siding actually cut heating bills in an old Manchester home?
Often, yes — homes from this era typically have little or no wall insulation, and that’s exactly where insulated vinyl earns its keep: R-3 to R-5 of continuous exterior insulation that blankets the studs instead of stopping at them, plus new house wrap cutting the air infiltration old walls leak through. The siding won’t pay for itself on energy alone, but if the old siding is failing anyway, insulating while the walls are open is the cheapest that upgrade will ever be.
Can new siding keep the character of a century-old West Side home?
Yes, if the details are respected. Clapboard-profile vinyl or fiber cement in a traditional exposure width keeps the original rhythm of the wall; window and door trim gets wrapped or rebuilt to read the way the old casings did, not shrunk to vinyl-minimum; and corner boards stay proportional to the house. Fiber cement (we install CertainTeed) is the premium route for period looks. The goal is a house that looks restored, not re-skinned.
