Siding Repair and Replacement Around West Chester

Gutters are our main business, but water that misses the gutter usually ends up on the wall below. When it has damaged the siding, we can repair or replace that too.

Can gutter problems damage siding?

Yes. Overflowing or leaking gutters send water down the same stretch of wall every storm, which can stain siding, warp boards, loosen panels and soak the sheathing behind them. Stains below gutter corners or a missing kick-out flashing are common warning signs. Fixing the gutter first stops the damage from coming back.

Do I need a permit to replace siding in West Chester?

It depends on where you live. West Goshen's permit package treats siding replacement as ordinary repair that needs no permit. East Goshen lists siding and stucco work as needing a permit. In the Borough's historic district, siding visible from the street falls under design review. We confirm the rules before scheduling.

Siding questions

Can you match my existing siding?

Often, if the profile and color are still made. Older or sun-faded siding can be hard to match exactly, so on a repair we may suggest pulling matching pieces from a less visible wall. We'll show you options at the estimate.

Should I fix gutters or siding first?

Gutters first, or both together. If the gutter keeps dumping water on the wall, new siding will be damaged the same way. When both are needed we schedule the gutter fix first, or on the same visit, so the wall stays dry from day one.
