"Irish replaced vinyl siding, soffit, fascia and rain gutters on my home, including installation of hand-laid stone veneer on two exterior walls. They also replaced roofs for two sheds. Workmanship was excellent, price was very compeititive, communication was good. The project was completed on time and on budget, with very little correction/re-work involved. Very friendly and professional. The result was an astounding transformation of the home. I highly recommend this company!"

"It isn't done yet, but the construction manager is not being cooperative about some details that are very important to us. His comments on the material and timing for staining the deck are not consistent with information from lumber experts I know."

"Totally Positive Experience! Justin was very responsive to our inquiry, arriving on-site to discuss our potential projects. He provided detailed estimates for siding repair & installation, roof installation, and gutter repair/replacement with new covers, at very competitive prices. All three projects were completed in a timely manner with complete clean-up. Brothers Derek and Trevor were amazingly efficient, conscientious, and professional, paying close attention to detail and patiently answering my frequent questions. We are extremely pleased with the final results, and would definitely recommend Stronghold Home Improvement for similar types of projects."

Siding questions, answered by experts

You may only need to repaint fiber cement siding every decade or so, but you should clean it every six to 12 months, depending on your local climate. First, wash with a garden hose or similar low-pressure device (not a high-pressure washer, which can damage the material) to remove dirt and any large debris. Then, gently wipe down the surface with a soft brush or cloth in a side-to-side motion, following the grain of the fiber cement.

Bleach can be an option if you want to kill mold and mildew clinging to your siding. However, you must water bleach down to the right concentration of a 1/2 cup of bleach per gallon of water to avoid damaging your siding. Bleach can also harm plants in your yard and isn’t safe to use near pets, so employ it with caution.

Local pressure washing services often offer non-bleach options that can powerfully remove mold and mildew.

If you buy new cedar, the process of cutting it usually roughs up the surface enough that it doesn’t require sanding. However, if you buy older cedar or you’re repurposing it from another application, it’s a good idea to sand it. This helps the stain settle into the grain, and results in a more uniform appearance.

Caulking should be re-applied roughly every five years. It's natural for a home to settle and separate caulking from joints, so it's a good idea to assess the home every two years. A consistent siding maintenance schedule will help you see if the caulking is needed and address any potential issues before they occur.

Similar to other types of wood siding consisting of natural materials, cedar siding should last 20 to 40 years. However, the lifespan for any wood siding, including cedar, can be far shorter without the proper repair and maintenance work. Don’t put off making repairs, or problems could worsen quickly. While you can repair minor holes and cracks in the siding shakes, rot and warping requires replacing the boards.
