Older La Porte homes
Much of La Porte’s housing stock dates from before 1940, with original wood clapboard that has been painted many times and often covered later with aluminum. On these homes we tear off to the sheathing, replace rot around windows and the lowest courses, and install smooth or cedarmill fiber cement or insulated vinyl in profiles that keep the house’s proportions.
Lake homes
Homes on La Porte’s lakes take wind-driven rain on the water side. We use taped house wrap, wind-rated fastening and careful flashing at decks and doors, and recommend fiber cement where reflected sun off the water fades vinyl faster.

Siding questions from La Porte
Do you charge extra to come out to La Porte?
No. Estimates in La Porte are free, and travel is built into the labor price rather than billed as a separate trip fee. We group LaPorte County estimates on the same days.
What siding keeps the look of an older La Porte two-story?
A 4-inch to 5-inch exposure lap siding keeps the proportions of a pre-1940 house. James Hardie HardiePlank in smooth or select cedarmill, or a Dutch-lap or 4-inch vinyl profile, both read as traditional clapboard from the street.
