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.

What a Full Replacement Can Include
The replacement projects we route most often in Savage include:
Full Tear-Off and Re-Side
Old siding is stripped to the sheathing, the wall is inspected and repaired, and new cladding goes on over a fresh weather barrier.
Aluminum to Vinyl or Fiber Cement
Faded, dented aluminum is among the most frequent re-sides. Pros remove it, check the old fiberboard or plank sheathing beneath, and install the new material over proper wrap.
Sheathing and Rot Replacement
Soft OSB or plank sheathing is cut back to solid wood and replaced before any new siding goes up. 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. Trim at windows and doors is extended to suit the thicker wall.
Re-Flashing Openings
With the old siding off, every opening can be re-flashed correctly: sill pan, jamb tape, head flashing, and drip cap.
Soffit, Fascia, and Trim Replacement
Tired soffit and fascia are usually replaced along with the siding for a matched look. Vented soffit improves attic airflow at the same time.
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 staining on the back of old siding, mushroomed OSB edges, and rusted nails all tell the story of where water has been getting in.
The usual suspects are rot under windows, rot along the bottom where siding touched dirt or mulch, and rot below roof-wall junctions that lacked kick-out flashing. Older houses sometimes have crumbly fiberboard sheathing or no barrier whatsoever.
A careful contractor photographs every damaged section before fixing it and shows you, so the sheathing allowance is used openly. Every repaired wall then gets wrapped, flashed, and inspected before the new siding goes up. It takes a bit more time, and it is why a properly replaced wall lasts decades.
Typical replacement requests
- Old aluminum that is dented or chalking
- First-generation vinyl that is cracking

What Savage Homeowners Said After Their Re-Side
Follow-up notes from Savage callers, shared with permission and trimmed for length.
Our old aluminum came off to reveal two walls with zero house wrap. The pro wrapped the whole house, replaced several sheets of sheathing at the quoted allowance, and the new fiber cement looks great.
Paul and Gina R.Aluminum to fiber cement, SavageTheirs 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, SavageOur 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, SavageInsulated vinyl made a real difference in our upstairs bedrooms, and the magnetic sweep found every nail before my kids were back in the yard.

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 Savage?
Cost is driven by material, square footage, height, trim, removal, and sheathing repair. A solid quote breaks each item out so bids can be compared 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 why the allowance matters before work begins.
Do I need to be home during the replacement?
Usually not, though you should be reachable and present for the kickoff and final walkthrough. Expect noise and keep vehicles and pets clear of the work zone.
Is lead paint a concern during siding removal?
On homes built before 1978, painted surfaces may contain lead. Contractors working on those homes should follow lead-safe practices, including containment, careful cleanup, and proper disposal.
Will a replacement need a permit?
Full replacements often require a permit, particularly when sheathing is replaced. Your contractor should check with the local building office and take care of it.
