When your siding’s compromised, everything else is at risk. Water gets in where it shouldn’t. Energy bills climb. Your home’s protection weakens with every storm.
We fix that. Whether it’s vinyl panels pulling away from your house, cedar shakes splitting from weather exposure, or storm damage that happened overnight—we restore the barrier that keeps your home safe.
You’ll have siding that actually does its job again. No more drafts sneaking through cracks. No more water finding its way behind panels. Just reliable protection that handles whatever Long Island weather throws at it.
We’ve been fixing siding issues across Long Island for years. We’ve seen what nor’easters do to vinyl panels and how summer heat warps even quality materials.
North Great River homes face unique challenges—coastal moisture, temperature swings, and storms that test every exterior surface. We understand these conditions because we work in them every day.
We know the difference between a quick patch and a repair that lasts. We’ve built our reputation on doing the work right the first time, whether it’s a small crack repair or extensive storm damage restoration.
First, we assess what’s actually wrong. Not every siding problem needs a full replacement—sometimes targeted repairs save you thousands while solving the real issue.
We examine the damage, check for underlying problems like moisture infiltration or structural issues, and give you a straight answer about what needs fixing. If your siding can be repaired effectively, we’ll show you exactly how.
The repair process depends on your siding type and damage extent. Vinyl repairs might involve replacing damaged panels and securing loose sections. Cedar work often means matching and replacing individual shakes, then sealing everything properly. We work efficiently but thoroughly—most repairs are completed in hours, not days.
Ready to get started?
Every siding repair includes damage assessment, proper material matching, and protective sealing. We don’t just fix what’s broken—we prevent future problems.
For vinyl siding repairs, we address cracks, warping, loose panels, and storm damage. Our work includes checking fasteners, ensuring proper overlap, and sealing any gaps that could let moisture in.
Cedar shake repairs involve replacing damaged shakes with properly matched materials, addressing any rot or mold issues, and applying protective treatments. Long Island’s coastal climate is tough on cedar, so we take extra steps to ensure lasting protection. We also inspect surrounding areas to catch problems before they spread.
Most siding repairs can be completed within a day, often in just a few hours depending on the damage extent. Storm damage gets priority scheduling because exposed areas let water into your home’s structure.
We keep common siding materials in stock specifically for emergency repairs. For vinyl siding, we can usually match colors and complete repairs the same day we assess the damage. Cedar repairs might take slightly longer if we need to source matching materials, but we’ll secure the area immediately to prevent further damage.
The key is calling quickly after storm damage occurs. The longer damaged siding stays exposed, the more likely you’ll develop secondary problems like water damage, mold, or structural issues that cost significantly more to fix.
Yes, we maintain relationships with major siding manufacturers and suppliers to source matching materials. Most vinyl siding can be matched exactly, even for older installations.
Cedar matching requires more expertise since natural wood varies, but we’re experienced in finding shakes that blend well with existing siding. Fresh cedar will be lighter initially but weathers to match the surrounding material over time.
For discontinued or unusual siding styles, we work with specialty suppliers and sometimes recommend strategic repairs that blend seamlessly with your home’s overall appearance. We’ll always show you samples before starting work so you know exactly how the repair will look.
Long Island’s climate is particularly hard on vinyl siding. Summer heat can reach levels that cause vinyl to expand and warp, especially on south-facing walls that get direct sunlight for hours.
Winter temperature drops cause the material to contract rapidly, which can create stress cracks. Add in coastal moisture and salt air, and you get conditions that accelerate normal wear. Poor installation also contributes—siding that’s nailed too tightly can’t expand and contract properly, leading to buckling and cracking.
Storm damage from high winds can pull panels loose or impact them with debris. We see this frequently after nor’easters and hurricanes. The good news is that most vinyl damage can be repaired without replacing entire sections, especially if you address it quickly.
Cedar siding problems usually start small but can spread quickly if ignored. Look for individual shakes that are cracked, split, or pulling away from the wall. Dark staining or soft spots indicate moisture damage that needs immediate attention.
If you can push a screwdriver into the cedar easily, or if pieces break off when touched, the wood has deteriorated beyond simple repair. However, isolated damage doesn’t mean your entire siding needs replacement—we can often replace just the affected shakes.
Check areas around windows, doors, and roof lines where water tends to collect. These spots develop problems first. Also inspect after major storms, since high winds can loosen or crack cedar shakes even when the damage isn’t immediately visible from ground level.
Many homeowners insurance policies cover siding damage from storms, high winds, hail, and other weather events. The key is documenting the damage quickly and understanding what your specific policy covers.
We can help with the insurance process by providing detailed damage assessments and repair estimates. Take photos of the damage before any temporary repairs, and contact your insurance company promptly to start a claim.
Keep in mind that normal wear and tear isn’t typically covered, but storm damage usually is. We’ve worked with many insurance adjusters and can provide the documentation they need to process your claim efficiently. Sometimes the difference between covered and non-covered damage comes down to proper documentation and timing.
Regular inspection is your best defense against major siding problems. Walk around your home twice a year, preferably in spring and fall, looking for loose panels, cracks, or areas where caulking has failed.
Keep gutters clean and properly functioning—overflowing water is one of the biggest causes of siding damage. Trim vegetation away from siding to allow air circulation and prevent moisture buildup. Power washing can help maintain vinyl siding, but use appropriate pressure to avoid forcing water behind panels.
For cedar siding, annual inspection and occasional treatment with wood preservatives extend life significantly. Address small problems immediately—a single loose shake can let moisture behind the entire wall system if ignored. Most homeowners can spot obvious issues, but having a professional inspection every few years catches problems before they become expensive repairs.
