Seal Your Home Against Wind and Water

Installation and replacement of exterior siding systems for homes in Columbus.

Your siding forms the outer shell that keeps wind, rain, and moisture away from your home's framing, insulation, and interior walls, and when it cracks, warps, or pulls away from the house, water finds its way behind the surface and starts rotting wood, soaking insulation, and feeding mold growth. In Columbus, older siding often shows damage from years of temperature swings, wind-driven rain, and sun exposure, and replacing it means your home stays dry, loses less heat in winter, and looks sharper from the street.

Prime Service Ohio Roofing installs and replaces exterior siding systems using materials that match the architectural styles common in central Ohio neighborhoods. The work includes removal of damaged siding, inspection of the sheathing and moisture barrier underneath, installation of new siding with proper overlap and fastening, and trim work around windows, doors, and corners to complete the exterior upgrade.

What Changes After New Siding Goes Up

The crew removes old siding down to the sheathing, replaces any water-damaged boards or house wrap, and installs new siding from the foundation up with attention to drainage, expansion gaps, and fastener placement. In Columbus, this process accounts for how vinyl, fiber cement, and wood siding respond to seasonal temperature changes and ensures the system stays tight without buckling or cracking.

After installation, you will see siding that sits flat against the house without gaps or loose sections, sheds water away from windows and doors, and stops drafts that used to come through the walls. Your heating and cooling bills drop because insulation stays dry and effective, and your home looks cleaner and better maintained from the curb.

The service covers siding installation, trim, and basic soffit and fascia work, but does not include full window replacement or structural framing repairs. Prime Service Ohio Roofing coordinates siding projects with roofing work when both are needed, and the service is available across the Columbus area.

A Few Things Worth Clearing Up

Homeowners in Columbus often ask about material choices, installation time, and what to expect after siding is replaced, so these answers address the practical concerns that come up during exterior evaluations.

What siding materials work best in Ohio?
Vinyl siding handles temperature swings well and requires little maintenance, while fiber cement offers better impact resistance and a longer lifespan. Wood siding looks traditional but needs regular painting and sealing to prevent rot.
How long does siding installation take?
Most single-family homes take three to seven days depending on size, siding type, and how much trim work is involved. The crew works through the day and cleans up before leaving each evening.
When should I replace my siding instead of painting it?
If your siding is cracked, warped, or loose in multiple areas, or if you see water stains and rot behind it, replacement makes more sense than a fresh coat of paint. An exterior inspection will show whether repair or replacement is the right choice.
What happens to the old siding?
The crew removes old siding carefully to avoid damaging the sheathing underneath, hauls it away, and disposes of it properly. You do not need to arrange for dumpster rental or cleanup.
Why does siding matter for energy bills?
Siding protects the insulation and moisture barrier that keep your home's temperature stable, and damaged siding lets air and water through, which reduces insulation effectiveness and forces your HVAC system to work harder. New siding seals those gaps and improves efficiency.
