Siding Installation in Crofton, MD

Crofton was built as a planned community in the 1960s, and that history shapes almost every siding job we do here. The colonials in Crofton Village, Crofton Meadows, and Crofton Woods share a family of steep colonial roof pitches, two-story gable ends, and tall side elevations — a lot of exposed wall, much of it now on its original or first-replacement siding. Under Crofton's mature tree canopy the north and shaded elevations along Walden and toward Waugh Chapel are where problems start: green algae and mildew take hold on siding that stays damp, panels chalk and fade unevenly, and moisture works behind the wall at the many window and trim penetrations these colonials carry. What starts as a tired look is usually a wall that has quietly lost its drainage plane.

Because these are consistent 1960s-era builds, we know what tends to be behind the siding before we open it — but we still inspect. On a Crofton colonial we spec either James Hardie fiber cement, which holds crisp lines on the tall two-story gables and won't warp or feed algae the way old vinyl does, or a quality insulated vinyl that adds an R-value bump and evens out the wall on a tighter budget. The steep pitches and two-story runs common here mean staging and safe access matter, and our own crews handle that rather than a rotating subcontractor. Every wall gets a full tear-off, fresh housewrap, and every window and penetration re-flashed and taped so water drains out of the assembly instead of sitting in it.

Crofton is also one of the few Anne Arundel communities with an active architectural review — the Crofton Civic Association reviews exterior changes, including siding color and profile. We prepare that paperwork for you, with product spec sheets and color samples, so your selection clears before we order material and start. Sheathing is inspected before we quote, and any decking that needs replacing is priced per sheet in writing up front, so the number you approve is the number you pay. Every job is installed by our own W-2 crews — never subcontracted — backed by a written workmanship warranty, with Anne Arundel County permits pulled where required and a full cleanup before we leave.

Most Crofton siding projects run $12,000–$38,000 depending on square footage, the tall two-story colonial elevations common here, insulated vinyl vs. James Hardie fiber cement, and how much sheathing or trim needs replacing.
