Full Siding Replacement in York
A lot of the siding we replace in York is original to homes built decades ago. Once wood has rotted in multiple spots or old aluminum is dented and loose throughout, a full replacement makes more sense than chasing repairs one section at a time.
Complete Tear-Off
We remove old siding entirely and inspect the sheathing before installing anything new.
Insulation & Weather Barrier
A proper house wrap goes in first, cutting drafts that older York homes are prone to.
Respect for Home Character
We work carefully around trim and architectural details on older homes rather than simplifying them away.

Real, verified reviews from homeowners across PA.
When Repair Isn't Enough Anymore
Once siding damage in York spreads across several panels, or the wall underneath feels soft, patching only delays a bigger repair while moisture keeps working its way in behind the wall.
Richards Siding's Full Replacement Process
We strip the siding down to the sheathing, fix any hidden damage, and install new material with proper flashing and insulation, giving your York home a weather-tight, updated exterior.

Soft Sheathing
A soft feel when pressed means moisture has already reached the wood underneath.
Persistent Drafts
Old, gapped siding lets conditioned air escape year-round.
Storm Damage
Wind and hail can crack or dislodge enough panels that patching isn't practical.
Warping & Buckling
Temperature swings cause aging siding to expand and contract until it warps.
