The Siding Installation and Replacement Process: Our Step-by-Step Guide

Our goal is to make your siding project seamless and stress-free, from start to finish. Our process is designed for clarity and efficiency, ensuring that you are informed and confident at every stage.

​

  • Initial Consultation & Project Planning: It all begins with a no-obligation consultation where we inspect your home’s exterior, take precise measurements, and discuss your goals—whether that's better insulation, repairing damage, or modernizing your home's appearance. We'll listen to your vision and offer recommendations based on your home’s style, the local Hayward climate, and your budget. This is the time for you to ask us any and all questions you have.

  • Material & Design Selection: We will walk you through the various siding options, helping you choose the best material for your home. You'll finalize your selections for siding, trim, and colors. Once the plan is approved, we will handle all material ordering and schedule your project based on availability.

  • Permit Acquisition: For any major exterior work in Hayward, including siding replacement, a building permit is required. We take on the responsibility of preparing and submitting all necessary documents to the City of Hayward to ensure your project complies with all local building codes and regulations.  

  • Site Preparation & Old Siding Removal: Before we begin, we will help you prepare your home by moving outdoor furniture and protecting your landscaping. The first physical step is to carefully remove your existing siding, allowing us to inspect the underlying sheathing for any rot, mold, or structural damage that may need repair.  

  • Installing the Weather Barrier: After any necessary repairs, we will install a weather-resistant barrier (often a house wrap) to create an essential second line of defense against moisture. This step is crucial for protecting your home’s structure and ensuring your new siding performs its best for years to come.  

  • New Siding Installation: Our skilled team will expertly install your new siding, working with precision and attention to detail. This is the most time-intensive and rewarding part of the process, as your home’s new look comes to life. We will also install all necessary trim, corner posts, and flashing to create a complete and professional finish.  

  • Final Walkthrough & Cleanup: Once the installation is complete, we will conduct a final walkthrough with you to ensure your complete satisfaction. We will then perform a thorough cleanup, removing all debris and materials from the site so you can immediately begin enjoying your home’s refreshed exterior.  

Siding Materials: Choosing the Best Option for Your Hayward Home

The right siding material provides not only aesthetic appeal but also long-term protection against the elements. We offer a variety of popular siding types to meet the unique needs of your home and budget.

​

  • Vinyl Siding: A highly popular choice, vinyl siding is known for its affordability and versatility. It is lightweight, relatively easy to install, and requires minimal maintenance. It comes in a wide range of colors and styles, with some options that can mimic the appearance of other materials like wood. In Hayward, you can expect an average installation cost of about $5.06 per square foot.  

  • Fiber Cement Siding: Made from a mix of wood fiber, cement, and sand, fiber cement is a durable and low-maintenance option. It is fire, rot, and pest-resistant, and can be manufactured to look like wood or stucco. Due to its weight, it typically requires professional installation.

  • Wood Siding: Wood siding offers a classic, traditional look with a natural feel. Materials like cedar or pine are excellent insulators, but they do require regular maintenance, such as painting or staining, to prevent rot and weather damage. Average installation costs in Hayward for materials like pine or fir clapboard are around $7.07 per square foot.  

  • Engineered Wood Siding: This material is a great alternative to natural wood, offering its look at a lower cost and with less maintenance. It is made from wood fibers combined with resins or waxes, making it more resistant to moisture and termites than real wood.

  • Stucco Siding: Stucco is a durable, low-maintenance, and fire-resistant siding option with a distinctive texture. It is a versatile material that can be painted and used to create a variety of looks. Installation is labor-intensive and requires a skilled hand to prevent cracking. In California, the cost can range from $8.17 to $9.88 per square foot depending on the type of stucco.  

  • Metal Siding: Commonly used in commercial buildings, metal siding is becoming a popular choice for homes due to its durability and easy upkeep. It is available in various forms, including panels and shingles, and is often more budget-friendly than other choices. In Hayward, metal siding installation averages about $7.24 per square foot.  

Siding Combinations: Create a Distinctive Exterior with MEJA

For homeowners looking for a unique and high-quality exterior, combining different types of siding and materials is an excellent strategy. A contractor refers to this as "siding combinations," and it can add a dynamic, visually interesting look to your home. This can be achieved in several ways:

​

  • Mixing Different Siding Styles: You can create textural contrast by pairing horizontal plank lap siding with vertical board-and-batten siding. This is a popular combination for achieving a modern farmhouse look.  

  • Combining Different Materials: To get a polished appearance, we can pair a primary siding material like fiber cement or vinyl with a stone or brick veneer on specific architectural features, such as the lower facade, gables, or around the entryway. This is a way to get a luxury look without the cost of covering the entire house in a more expensive material like stone.

  • Strategic Accents: Using shingles in the gable area or decorative trim to highlight dormers or windows can draw attention to key architectural features and add a polished finish.  


By expertly mixing materials, colors, and textures, we can create a sophisticated and intentional design that sets your home apart from the rest.
