What We Did

 

  • Removed and Replaced all Exterior Cedar Siding
  • Installed Generations Thermal Core Insulating Siding

This 1960’s Ranch style home in Southborough, Massachusetts was in need of some serious care. The cedar siding was installed originally and required multiple paint jobs. The customers were fed up with the continual cycle of scrape, paint and repeat. They wanted a more permanent low maintenance solution but also wanted to maximize their insulation value.

In Southborough, MA the winters can get cold, so they wanted a siding contractor who specialized in insulation and energy efficiency. They felt their high heating bills were out of control and good insulation could help.

The goal was to achieve a beautiful exterior look while at the same time using insulation to lower their heating bills. They were thrilled to know that as a local contractor, United could provide everything they needed in one quality local contractor right in Southborough, Massachusetts.

We first removed the cedar clapboard siding that was not holding paint. As local siding contractors in Massachusetts we are experienced in removing all types of siding from Cedar clapboard, to aluminum siding, to asphalt shingle siding to asbestos siding and everything in between.

We then installed a layer of Tyvek® HomeWrap to protect against wind and moisture infiltration as well as a polystyrene insulating backer board.

After wrapping the house with a moisture barrier, Tyvek® HomeWrap, we installed a thermal core insulating siding, which is a vinyl siding with foam insulation permanently adhered and formed to the vinyl siding. The customers wanted to maintain the charming look of their Ranch style home so we recommended Generations Thermal Core Vinyl Siding. This vinyl siding will capture the beauty and energy efficiency of a newly built home, while creating a low maintenance exterior.

As a Massachusetts siding contractor we were able to provide very affordable siding replacement with insulating foam siding as well. This Southborough, MA homeowner was very impressed by the energy savings of his new insulating vinyl siding and has already spoken to his neighbors about United. Even though he doesn’t need roofing, windows, or painting, he would fully recommend United for any customer looking for a roofing contractor, windows installer, painters and especially siding replacement contractor in Massachusetts.
