Siding a building in Boston means working in the most demanding conditions in New England. Street-facing scaffolding, city permits, attached and semi-attached housing, buildings separated by inches, and tenants living on every floor throughout the project. The siding has to perform — but the logistics have to come first.

Boston’s buildings wear every generation of siding — original clapboard on Back Bay brownstones, asbestos shingles on Dorchester three-deckers, aluminum cover-ups from the 1970s, and first-generation vinyl that’s faded and cracking. Each era left different wall conditions behind. We handle all of them.
Vinyl is the most affordable — low maintenance, wide color range, solid performance when installed properly. Hardie fiber cement is more substantial, resists impact, and holds its appearance longer. Everlast composite is our primary premium option — factory-finished, fade-resistant, with strong warranties. In Boston’s competitive real estate market, many owners investing in a reside choose Hardie or Everlast for the curb appeal and long-term return.
Full vinyl siding on a typical single-family runs $40,000–$55,000. Hardie and Everlast composite start around $68,000 and go up with trim scope. Triple-deckers and multi-family buildings are significantly more due to three stories of wall area, scaffolding permits, and tenant coordination — expect $80,000+ for a full three-decker reside with premium materials. Complete projects include removal, sheathing inspection, weather barrier, new siding, and PVC trim.
Most single-family projects take 2–3 weeks. Triple-deckers and larger multi-family buildings take 3–5 weeks depending on building size, material choice, and trim scope. Boston’s permitting requirements and access constraints can add time compared to suburban projects, but we build that into the timeline from the start.
Yes — and in Boston, that’s a significant portion of our siding work. Multi-story scaffolding, city permits, tenant coordination, and maintaining weathertight conditions on an occupied building are all standard. We work section by section, floor by floor, and manage the project so residents can continue living in the building throughout.
Yes — and on Boston’s pre-war buildings, there’s almost always something. When we strip old siding, we inspect every square foot of sheathing. Rot, water damage, and insect damage get repaired before the weather barrier and new siding go on. The condition behind 100-year-old clapboard or under 1970s aluminum is never a guarantee — the only way to know is to look.
Yes. Attached and semi-attached buildings require careful planning — shared walls, party wall transitions, matching the streetscape, and coordinating with adjacent property owners when scaffolding extends close to the property line. We understand how these buildings connect and where the wall system needs to transition cleanly between properties.
Yes. With the old siding off and sheathing exposed, it’s the ideal time for continuous exterior insulation. Boston’s pre-war buildings have minimal wall insulation, and many older structures have balloon framing that allows air to move freely through the wall cavity. Adding exterior insulation during a reside can make a meaningful difference in heating and cooling costs.
