Siding Replacement in Melrose, MA —
From Demo Day to Final Panel

Old siding doesn't signal failure loudly — it fails quietly, letting moisture migrate into sheathing and framing for months before interior symptoms appear. Our Melrose, MA replacement crews do a full tear-off down to the substrate, document every deficiency they find, repair what needs repair, and install your new system correctly. No buried surprises, no patching over problems.

How It Works

From First Call to Finished Project

Our Melrose, MA team follows the same documented process on every project — so you know what to expect at every stage.

1

On-Site Assessment & Documentation

We photograph and moisture-meter the existing exterior, document suspect areas, and take precise square footage measurements by elevation. The assessment feeds directly into your line-item estimate.

2

Demo & Substrate Repair

Crew strips all existing cladding, probes and meters exposed substrate, documents findings with photos, issues change orders for any repair scope, and completes substrate work before staging new material.

3

Installation in Correct Sequence

Housewrap goes on first, reflashing at all openings second, panels third, trim last. Each phase is inspected before moving to the next. No cladding goes on until the weather barrier is complete.

4

Cleanup, Walkthrough & Warranty

All debris removed, property swept for fasteners, final walkthrough by elevation with you. Permit records, manufacturer warranty registrations, and workmanship warranty document delivered before final payment.

Customer Reviews

Real Reviews from Siding Replacement Clients Across Melrose, MA

★★★★★

They found rotted sheathing on the north wall during demo — called me within the hour, showed me the photos, gave me the change order price before doing anything. That's the kind of transparency I'd never had from a contractor before.

★★★★★

Three bids — one lump sum, one vague breakdown, one line-item detail from Forge Siding. The difference in specificity made the decision easy. Four pages of itemized components versus a single number I couldn't evaluate.

We'd been patching the same north wall section for six years. Forge Siding diagnosed the root cause — missed flashing on the original 1995 install. The replacement and correct flashing solved a problem five years of patches never touched.

★★★★★

The sheathing moisture map they produced during demo was something I'd never seen from a contractor. Showing me the actual readings, by location on the wall, before discussing any repair cost — that approach builds instant trust.

FAQ

Siding Replacement FAQ — Melrose, MA

We give you an honest read at the assessment visit, with moisture readings and photos supporting whatever we recommend. Our goal is the right scope for your situation, not the larger project.
We remove everything that belongs to the siding system. Structural framing stays unless our moisture assessment reveals damage, in which case we stop, document, and give you a written change order before proceeding.
We provide a day-count estimate at the written quote stage. We build a buffer day for weather into most schedules and communicate adjustments the day before they affect your timeline — not the morning of.
Siding replacement consistently ranks in the top tier of exterior investment for return on resale value. Buyers in MA housing markets respond to updated exteriors because they signal reduced near-term maintenance. A documented replacement with manufacturer warranties gives buyers something a listing agent can point to as a verifiable asset.
The answer is always the same: stop, photograph, document the extent, issue a written change order with the per-unit cost, and wait for your approval. We don't proceed with cladding installation over compromised substrate and we don't add scope without written sign-off.
Daily cleanup is built into our project schedule — not a last-day activity. We sweep for nails each afternoon and tarp any unclosed sections before leaving the site overnight.
