Our Siding Replacement Process

The difference between siding that lasts and siding that fails is what happens before the first panel goes up.

1

Free inspection & measurement

We walk your home, measure every wall, check for problem areas, and give you a written, itemized estimate — no obligation.

2

Tear-off & moisture check

We remove the old siding and inspect the sheathing beneath for rot, water damage, and hidden issues — the part most companies skip.

3

Weather barrier & sealing

We install a proper house-wrap and seal every penetration so your walls stay dry through Vermont's freeze-thaw cycles.

4

Precision installation & cleanup

Your new siding goes on straight, tight, and warranty-correct — then we clean the site so your yard looks better than we found it.

Why Replacing Your Siding Matters in Vermont

Vermont's climate puts extraordinary stress on your home's exterior. Freezing winters, spring thaw moisture, summer storms, and fall wind all take their toll on siding that isn't up to the task.

Damaged or aging siding doesn't just look bad — it lets moisture into your walls, drives up energy bills, and reduces your property value. Full siding replacement is one of the highest-ROI improvements a Vermont homeowner can make, and it protects everything behind the walls.

At All-Star Contracting, we don't just hang new panels — we tear off the old siding, inspect the sheathing for moisture and rot, install a proper weather barrier, and seal your home correctly before a single new board goes up.

Siding Replacement FAQ

How much does siding replacement cost in Vermont?

Most Vermont siding replacements run about $4–$8 per square foot installed for vinyl, $8–$14 for HardiePlank fiber cement, and $9–$16 for cedar shake. For a typical Vermont home that means roughly $9,000–$18,000 for vinyl and $16,000–$32,000 for HardiePlank. The exact number depends on your home's size, the material you choose, the condition of the sheathing underneath, and how many stories and details your home has. A free on-site estimate gives you a firm price.

Vinyl vs. HardiePlank vs. cedar — which is best for Vermont?

Vinyl is the best value and lowest maintenance, and modern insulated vinyl performs well in Vermont's climate. HardiePlank (fiber cement) is the premium pick — it looks like painted wood, resists fire, moisture, and pests, and carries a 30-year warranty. Cedar shake gives the most authentic New England look but needs more upkeep. We'll help you weigh cost, maintenance, and curb appeal for your specific home.

How long does a siding replacement take?

Most Vermont homes take one to two weeks from tear-off to final cleanup, depending on the size of the home, the material, and the weather. We schedule around Vermont's dry season for the best results and keep you updated at every stage.

Will new siding lower my energy bills?

Yes — worn or damaged siding lets air and moisture into your walls, which drives up heating and cooling costs. Replacing it with a properly sealed, well-insulated system (especially insulated vinyl or fiber cement over a fresh house-wrap) tightens your home's envelope and can meaningfully cut your winter heating bills.

Do you handle storm-damaged siding and insurance claims?

Yes. Vermont wind and ice storms regularly damage siding. We inspect the damage, document it with photos, and can work with your insurance adjuster to help move your claim along — then repair or replace the affected siding correctly.
