You get siding that actually works. Not just something that looks decent for a few years, but protection that handles Riverhead’s weather extremes without warping, cracking, or fading.
Your energy bills drop because modern insulated siding creates a real barrier against heat loss. No more drafts, no more rooms that never quite get comfortable.
Your weekends stay yours. Quality siding means no more scraping, painting, or patching every few years. Install it right once, and you’re done worrying about it.
We’ve been installing and repairing siding in Riverhead and throughout Suffolk County since 2001. We’re the local contractor who understands what Long Island weather does to your home’s exterior.
We’ve seen every type of siding failure you can imagine. Vinyl that warps in summer heat, wood that gets destroyed by our local woodpecker population, and cheap installations that fail during the first nor’easter.
That’s why we only work with materials that are built for this climate and install them the right way the first time.
First, we inspect your current siding and the structure underneath. You need to know what you’re dealing with before any work starts. We check for moisture damage, structural issues, and proper insulation.
Next, we remove the old siding down to the sheathing. We install house wrap for moisture protection, add insulation where needed, and then install your new siding with proper ventilation and flashing.
The final step is cleanup and a walkthrough. We don’t leave until your property looks better than when we arrived, and you understand exactly what was done and how to maintain it.

Vinyl siding remains popular in Riverhead because quality brands like CertainTeed can handle our humidity, wind, and temperature swings without warping. It’s low maintenance and comes in dozens of colors and styles.
Fiber cement siding like James Hardie is engineered for coastal climates. It won’t warp, rot, or burn, and it’s designed to withstand hurricane-force winds. Many Riverhead homeowners choose it because it can lower insurance premiums.
Wood siding gives you that classic Long Island look, but it requires the right species and proper treatment to handle our climate. Cedar works well here because it naturally resists moisture and insects.
Fiber cement siding like James Hardie performs best in Riverhead because it’s specifically engineered for coastal climates with high humidity and strong winds. It won’t warp from temperature changes like vinyl can, and it resists moisture damage that destroys wood siding.
Quality vinyl siding from manufacturers like CertainTeed also works well if it’s properly installed with adequate expansion gaps. The key is choosing thicker gauge vinyl that can handle Long Island’s temperature extremes.
Wood siding can work, but only if you choose the right species like cedar and maintain it properly. Most Riverhead homeowners prefer the low-maintenance options.
Most Riverhead siding projects take 5-10 days depending on your home’s size and the complexity of the job. Weather can extend this timeline, especially during Long Island’s stormy seasons.
We start by removing old siding and inspecting the structure underneath. This usually takes 1-2 days. Installing house wrap, insulation, and the new siding takes another 3-5 days for an average home.
Complex architectural features, multiple stories, or the need for structural repairs can add time to the project. We’ll give you a realistic timeline during your estimate and keep you updated if anything changes.
We handle both siding repairs and full replacements throughout Riverhead. Many siding problems can be fixed without replacing everything, especially if the damage is localized from storm debris or isolated wear.
Common repairs include replacing damaged sections, fixing loose pieces, addressing moisture intrusion, and matching existing siding colors and styles. We keep common siding materials in stock for quick repairs.
However, if your siding is approaching the end of its lifespan or has widespread issues, replacement usually makes more financial sense than ongoing repairs.
Insulated vinyl siding has a foam backing that provides additional thermal protection and structural support. In Riverhead’s climate, this can significantly reduce energy costs and make your home more comfortable year-round.
The insulation backing also makes the siding more resistant to dents and provides better sound dampening. This is especially valuable if you live near busy roads or in areas with high wind.
Regular vinyl siding costs less upfront but doesn’t provide the energy efficiency benefits. For most Riverhead homes, the energy savings from insulated siding pay for the upgrade within a few years.
Look for warping, cracking, or pieces that have pulled away from the house. These are signs that your siding is failing and no longer protecting your home properly.
Check for moisture damage inside your home, especially around windows and corners. If you’re seeing water stains, mold, or peeling paint on interior walls, your siding might not be doing its job.
High energy bills can also indicate siding problems. If your heating and cooling costs have increased significantly, failing siding could be letting conditioned air escape and outside air infiltrate your home.
Yes, we provide both manufacturer warranties on materials and workmanship warranties on our installation. Most quality siding materials come with 20-50 year manufacturer warranties against defects and fading.
Our workmanship warranty covers installation issues for several years after completion. This includes problems with flashing, proper fastening, and any installation defects that could lead to moisture intrusion or structural issues.
We also maintain full licensing and insurance, so you’re protected if anything unexpected happens during the project. All warranty details are clearly outlined in your contract before work begins.
