Siding contractor in Bucks County, PA

In some cases vinyl can be installed over existing aluminum, but we inspect the wall condition first. If there is moisture damage or rot in the sheathing beneath, that needs to be addressed before new siding goes on. Installing over a compromised substrate shortens the life of the new material and can trap moisture in the wall.

Plaster surfaces require different prep than drywall. Hairline cracks are common in older plaster and need to be filled and primed correctly before paint goes on, or the cracks telegraph through the finish coat. We treat plaster prep as a separate step from the painting itself so the final result holds.

Finishing a basement in a mid-century split-level typically means framing interior partition walls, addressing any moisture at the foundation wall before closing it in, and roughing in for any electrical or mechanical work that needs to happen before drywall. The framing stage is when those decisions get made, so it is worth thinking through the full layout before the first stud goes up.

Older homes often have subfloor conditions that newer construction does not, including uneven surfaces, gaps between boards, and areas where the structure has settled over time. We assess the subfloor before selecting the installation method so the finished floor lies flat and does not develop squeaks or movement after the job is done.
