A replacement is really three jobs: removal, wall repair, and new installation. Tear-off is when you learn what the old siding was covering. On older homes we hear about missing house wrap, rotted sheathing below windows, and kick-out flashing that was never installed.
A careful pro budgets for that from the start. Your quote should carry a per-sheet price for replacement sheathing so the cost of hidden rot is known ahead of time. Lead-safe practices matter on homes built before 1978, since disturbed painted trim may contain lead.
Re-siding is a natural time to improve the wall. Many homeowners add rigid foam or insulated vinyl, switch from aluminum to fiber cement, re-flash every window, and replace tired soffit and fascia while the scaffolding is already up.

Siding Replacement Services in Hodgkins
The replacement projects we route most often in Hodgkins include:
Complete Siding Tear-Off and Replacement
Old siding is stripped to the sheathing, the wall is inspected and repaired, and new cladding goes on over a fresh weather barrier.
Upgrading From Aluminum Siding
Faded, dented aluminum is among the most frequent re-sides. Contractors pull it, inspect the old sheathing underneath, and install the new material over correct wrap.
Rotted Sheathing Repair During Re-Siding
Spongy sheathing gets cut out to sound framing and replaced before new siding is installed. The cause of the water is corrected too.
Energy Upgrades During Replacement
Rigid foam board or insulated vinyl adds thermal value and stiffens the wall. Window and door trim depths are adjusted to account for the added thickness.
Re-Flashing Openings
Once the siding is removed, each opening can be re-flashed the right way with sill pans, jamb tape, head flashing, and drip caps.
Soffit, Fascia, and Trim Replacement
Worn soffit and fascia often get replaced with the siding for a uniform finish. Vented soffit also helps attic ventilation.
What Turns Up When the Old Siding Comes Off
Every tear-off is a small investigation. The crew starts on the worst wall, usually the one with the most weather exposure, and takes a few courses off to see what the rest of the house is likely hiding. Dark stains on the backs of panels, swollen sheathing edges, and rusted fasteners show exactly where water has been entering.
The most common findings are rot below windows, rot at the bottom of walls where siding met soil or mulch, and rot under roof-to-wall intersections that never had kick-out flashing. Older homes may also have fiberboard sheathing that crumbles when wet, or no weather barrier at all.
A good replacement pro photographs each problem area before repairing it and shows you the damage, so the sheathing allowance in your quote is applied transparently. Every repaired wall then gets wrapped, flashed, and inspected before the new siding goes up. That process takes a little longer, but it is the reason a properly replaced wall lasts for decades.

What Hodgkins Homeowners Said After Their Re-Side
Follow-up notes from Hodgkins callers, shared with permission and trimmed for length.
We knew the aluminum had to go. When it came off, two walls had no house wrap at all. The contractor wrapped everything, replaced four sheets of sheathing at the price in the quote, and the fiber cement looks fantastic.
Paul and Gina R.Aluminum to fiber cement, HodgkinsTheirs was the only quote that priced sheathing per sheet, so when they found rot under the kitchen window, the cost was already settled.
Teresa V.Full re-side, HodgkinsOur house dates to the 1950s, and the contractor set up plastic and used a HEPA vacuum for the old painted trim. They raised it before I even asked.
Walter M.Lead-safe replacement, HodgkinsInsulated vinyl made a real difference in our upstairs bedrooms, and the magnetic sweep found every nail before my kids were back in the yard.
Jasmine L.Insulated vinyl replacement, HodgkinsThe old hardboard was swollen and falling apart. The crew tore it off, fixed the wall, wrapped it, and finished the new vinyl in less than a week, cleaning up daily.

How do I know if my siding needs replacement instead of repair?
Widespread cracking, brittleness, fading, panels that keep releasing, or soft sheathing in several places usually point to replacement. Damage on one wall with sound siding elsewhere usually means repair.
What does a siding replacement cost in Hodgkins?
Price depends on material, wall area, height, trim, tear-off, and how much sheathing needs replacing. A good quote itemizes each of these so you can compare bids fairly.
What happens if rot is found under the old siding?
The contractor should show you the damage and replace it using the per-sheet allowance in your quote. That is exactly why the allowance should be set before work starts.
Do I need to be home during the replacement?
Not usually, but you should be available by phone and at the start and end of the job. Expect noise, and keep cars and pets away from the work area.
Is lead paint a concern during siding removal?
Houses built before 1978 may have lead in painted surfaces. Contractors working on those homes should follow lead-safe practices, including containment, careful cleanup, and proper disposal.
Will a replacement need a permit?
A full re-side frequently needs a permit, especially if sheathing is involved. Your contractor should check with the local building office and take care of it.
