- We select nail length based on substrate depth, not just siding spec. Nailing into sheathing only — without reaching framing — causes siding drift in Bergen County wind events.
- We allow proper end-joint spacing at all butt joints to prevent moisture buildup. Forced-tight butt joints on fiber cement and composite siding crack when the material moves.
- All Franklin Lakes siding work is completed to manufacturer specs for warranty validity. Installation method, fastener type, and joint treatment all affect warranty coverage.
- NJ HIC licensed, fully insured throughout Bergen County.

Siding Questions — Franklin Lakes, NJ
If yours isn’t here, call us. We’ll give you a real answer.
This is the first question we sort out on every Franklin Lakes siding call. Signs pointing toward full replacement: rot or moisture damage to the sheathing underneath, warping across multiple elevations, widespread cracking, or siding that’s past its useful life. Signs pointing toward repair: isolated panel damage, failed seams at corners or trim, or one-elevation issues. We’ll give you an honest call after inspection.
James Hardie is the most common recommendation we make on older Franklin Lakes homes with wood profiles. James Hardie is a fiber cement siding made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. It’s rot-proof, insect-proof, won’t warp in NJ winters, and holds paint for 15+ years with the ColorPlus factory finish. It can be installed in profiles that match original wood siding on older homes and looks the part on period architecture.
House wrap with seam tape goes behind every install — the wrap is the actual moisture barrier, the siding is the rain-shed. Row-home density means tear-off coordination matters — we stage materials so neighboring property stays clean.
