MORE THAN SIDING PANELS

A complete exterior siding system includes the visible cladding, trim, weather protection, flashing, openings, transitions, and installation details that work together across the wall assembly.

Siding Replacement

Removal and replacement of residential exterior siding when replacement is appropriate for the condition and needs of the property.

Siding Repair

Targeted repair of damaged or deteriorated siding areas when practical and compatible materials are available.

Trim & Accessories

Exterior corner posts, utility trim, J-channel, starter components, soffit, fascia, and related siding details.

Openings & Transitions

Construction details around windows, doors, wall penetrations, roof intersections, and changes between exterior materials.

Weather Protection

Coordination of appropriate water-resistive and flashing details behind and around the exterior cladding.

Storm Restoration

Exterior siding and related construction solutions following severe weather and other events affecting exterior building components.

EVERY DETAIL MATTERS

REPAIR OR REPLACE?

The appropriate approach depends on the extent of the siding concern, material condition, material availability, existing installation, wall-system details, and whether a practical repair can be completed.

Siding Repair May Be Appropriate When:
  • The affected area is limited.
  • Compatible replacement material is available.
  • Surrounding siding remains serviceable.
  • The repair can be integrated without creating additional exterior-wall issues.
Siding Replacement May Be Appropriate When:
  • Deterioration or damage is widespread.
  • Matching or compatible materials are unavailable.
  • Multiple elevations require significant repair.
  • Existing installation or wall-system details require broader correction.
  • Replacement provides a more practical long-term construction solution.

WHAT'S BEHIND THE SIDING MATTERS

Siding performs as part of an exterior wall system. Water-resistive barriers, flashing, trim, and transitions around windows, doors, penetrations, and roof intersections must be coordinated with the visible cladding.

Water-Resistive Barrier

Protective layer behind exterior cladding used as part of the wall's water-management system.

Window & Door Flashing

Flashing and transition details integrated around exterior openings as appropriate to the existing wall assembly and project scope.

Roof-to-Wall Transitions

Coordination of siding, flashing, roofing, and related details where roof surfaces meet exterior walls.

Exterior Penetrations

Appropriate trim and weather-detail integration around vents, fixtures, utilities, and other wall penetrations.

SIDING QUESTIONS

How do I know whether my siding should be repaired or replaced?

The appropriate option depends on the extent of the concern, material condition, availability of compatible materials, existing installation, and whether a practical repair can be integrated.

Can you match existing siding?

Material availability, profile, color, age, and manufacturer changes can affect whether an appropriate match is available. Existing conditions should be reviewed before determining repair options.

Do you replace house wrap or weather-resistive barrier?

Existing wall conditions and the project scope determine what weather-protection components should be addressed during construction.

Can you replace soffit and fascia with the siding project?

Yes. Soffit, fascia, trim, gutters, and related exterior components can be coordinated with an approved siding project.

Can you inspect siding after a storm?

Yes. Mann General Contractors can document observable siding and exterior conditions following severe weather and discuss appropriate construction options.

Do you work with insurance restoration projects?
