Siding Installation in Watsonville, CA
New and replacement siding, installed with the house wrap and flashing details that keep moisture out.
Siding is the last line of defense against Watsonville's fog and rain, but it's the layers behind it — house wrap, flashing, and proper seams — that actually keep water out of the wall. We see a lot of siding failures on older Pajaro Valley homes that have nothing to do with the siding material itself and everything to do with a flashing detail that was missed decades ago.
Whether we're re-siding an older home or installing new siding on an addition, we start with the wrap and flashing, because siding installed over a bad water-management layer just fails again a few years later.
Signs You Need Siding Work
- Visible warping, cracking, or gaps in existing siding
- Soft spots when you press on the siding or the wall behind it
- Peeling paint or moisture staining that keeps coming back
- You're finishing out an addition and need siding to match the house
Our Siding Installation Process
Strip & inspect
Old siding comes off (on replacements) so we can check the sheathing and framing underneath for damage.
Wrap & flash
House wrap goes on lapped correctly, with flashing at every window, door, and penetration.
Install siding
Siding goes up to manufacturer spec, with attention to seams and corners.
Seal & finish
Trim and caulking finish the job at transitions and openings.
What Drives Siding Cost
Square footage, material choice, how much of the existing wall assembly needs repair before new siding goes on, and the complexity of the house's shape (corners, dormers, multiple stories) all factor in. We price after inspecting what's underneath the current siding, not before.
