Full re-siding across Southwest Ohio, installed to the manufacturer's specification — most projects finished inside a week.
60 seconds · no obligation · same-day callback
Siding fails from the bottom and from behind. The base course takes years of splash-back off the ground, and water that gets behind a poorly flashed window has nowhere to go. The east side runs to post-war ranches and split-levels through Blue Ash, Kenwood and Madeira, with a lot of 1920s and 1930s brick further in around Pleasant Ridge and Silverton. Mason, Landen and West Chester are mostly newer two-storeys on bigger footprints. We take the old siding off, look at the sheathing and the water barrier underneath, and fix what we find before anything new goes on — which is the step that decides whether the new siding lasts.
The old siding comes off so we can see the sheathing. Rot at the base course and around openings is common, and it costs little to put right while the wall is open.
House wrap taped and lapped properly, and flashing at every window, door and transition. Most siding complaints trace back to installation, not material.
Usually done with the siding because the crew is already set up and it is where water gets in when it is neglected.
Fiber cement and vinyl both work when installed well. We quote both and tell you what we would put on our own house.
Siding fails from the bottom and from behind, and in Cincinnati both are driven by the same thing: water that freezes, thaws, and does it again.
Splash-back off a path or a driveway soaks the bottom course through the winter, and every freeze cycle works that moisture further into whatever is behind it. On the older frame stock that is sheathing and sill plate, and it is the first thing we look at when the siding comes off.
It is also why we take the old course off rather than going over it. Covering a wet base course hides the one part of the wall most likely to be rotten.
A house cut into a slope frequently has ground much closer to the siding on the uphill side than anyone intended, and grade that has crept up over the years. Siding held too close to soil wicks moisture continuously and never dries.
Sometimes the fix is regrading rather than siding. We would rather say that at the inspection than fit new material to the same problem.
A lot of the older housing here is brick at the front and frame at the sides and rear, or brick to the first floor and frame above. The transition between the two is a detail rather than an edge, and it is where water gets behind a wall.
Flashing that transition properly is most of what decides whether the new siding lasts. It is also the detail most often skipped, because it is not visible from the street.
Under heavy tree cover the fascia and soffit stay damp for long stretches of the year, and they fail well ahead of the siding below them. Replacing the siding and leaving them is a false economy on this stock.
We quote them together because the crew is already set up, and because water entering at a soffit does not care how new the siding underneath is.
A clear written quote after a free inspection — no surprises and no pressure afterwards.
The person who quotes the job runs the job, and is the person you call afterwards.

We work across Southwest Ohio, out of our Milford office. Here are the towns our crews are in most often.
Based at our Milford office. Permits vary by municipality across Hamilton, Clermont, Butler and Warren counties, and Northern Kentucky is a separate process again. We pull them.
The east side and Clermont County — Milford, Loveland, Batavia, Amelia and the river towns.
The west side and Butler County — Colerain, Cleves, Ross, Fairfield and Hamilton.
Don't see your town? It is probably still a yes — call (513) 258-0450 and we will tell you straight away.
Most homes are finished within about three days once the crew starts. Larger or more complex elevations run longer, and we give you the timeline before we begin.
Yes, and it is usually faster and cheaper than two visits — the same crew is already up there.
Hail and straight-line wind come through in spring and early summer. The bigger long-term problem is freeze-thaw: north-facing slopes hold snow and ice for weeks, and ice dams at the eaves back water up under the shingles.
Yes. The inspection and the written quote are free and carry no obligation, and nobody will lean on you afterwards.
We work across Southwest Ohio from our Milford office. If you are not sure whether your street is in, call (513) 258-0450 and ask — it takes a minute.
