The Pre-Installation Phase (1-2 Weeks)

Before the first panel is removed, we handle the logistics. This includes ordering materials, securing local permits (required in most North Atlanta municipalities), and coordinating with your HOA. We ensure everything is staged and ready to go so the actual work proceeds without delays. This level of detail is why we're the top choice for siding in Canton and nearby communities.
Blueprint and project planning tools
Thorough planning is the foundation of a successful siding replacement project.

Day 1-2: Tear-Off and Inspection

The most critical days. We remove your old siding and inspect the underlying sheathing. If we find rot, we address it immediately. We then install the HardieWrap® moisture barrier to "dry-in" the home.
