Siding Services for Frankford Homeowners
For Frankford homes with aluminum siding from the 1960s and 70s, the question isn’t whether to replace — it’s what’s under it. Aluminum was often installed over original cedar or asbestos cement board, which changes the substrate prep required. We open and assess before scoping.
For Frankford homeowners comparing fiber cement, engineered wood, and vinyl siding options, the honest answer is that the right choice depends on the wall assembly, the home’s exposure, and what you want to maintain long-term. We walk you through the comparison with specific product options and give you a written recommendation with the reasoning behind it.

- We confirm all corner posts are plumb before starting the field run. Corner posts set out of plumb cause every course to fight the layout — we set them right first.
- We never nail through the siding face unless the product spec requires it. Face-nailed siding that allows moisture entry at fastener heads is an installation defect.
- Our Frankford siding crews are trained specifically in the products they install. Each major siding brand has specific installation nuances — we know them.
- Licensed and insured — NJ HIC credentials current for Sussex County.

Siding Questions — Frankford, NJ
If yours isn’t here, call us. We’ll give you a real answer.
James Hardie is the most common recommendation we make on older Frankford 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.
Housewrap condition is something we always check before any siding goes on a Frankford home. We inspect it on every job. On older Frankford 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.
Make sure quotes specify the same product brand and grade — “vinyl siding” means nothing without the manufacturer and SKU. Confirm whether housewrap replacement, trim, and corner boards are included. Ask specifically about flashing at windows and doors. A lower quote without these details usually means something was excluded. We detail every line item so the comparison is apples to apples.
