Stone veneer →Why Nail Force Siding Is Built to Last in Maplewood
- We select nail length based on substrate depth, not just siding spec. Nailing into sheathing only — without reaching framing — causes siding drift in Essex 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 Maplewood 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 Essex County.

Siding Questions — Maplewood, NJ
If yours isn’t here, call us. We’ll give you a real answer.
Housewrap condition is something we always check before any siding goes on a Maplewood home. We inspect it on every job. On older Maplewood homes, the original felt paper is often torn, missing, or at end of life. If it’s compromised, we install new housewrap before the new siding goes on. It’s a critical moisture barrier that protects the wall assembly — skipping it is how you end up with rot behind brand-new siding.
We remove all old siding and dispose of it as part of the job. On older Maplewood homes, we also remove old housewrap and felt paper behind it. If asbestos-containing materials are suspected on pre-1980 homes, we’ll flag it before tear-off — testing and disposal of asbestos material is handled through licensed abatement, which we coordinate separately.
Fiber cement holds paint longest, has a premium look, and is fireproof — better for older or higher-end homes. Vinyl is zero-maintenance, more affordable, and performs well on mid-century and newer homes. We install both and will give you an honest recommendation based on your home’s age, architecture, and how much maintenance you want to deal with.
