Complete Siding Replacement — A Fresh Start for Your Home
Full tear-off to expose hidden damage, new house wrap, premium siding, and coordinated trim that transforms your home from foundation to roofline.
Complete Siding Replacement for Maryland & Delaware Homes
When siding shows widespread fading, warping, buckling, or visible moisture damage, a complete tear-off and replacement is the only way to address every issue at once — and it is one of the highest-ROI exterior projects you can undertake. Unlike a paint or repair job, a full re-side rebuilds the entire weather-resistive barrier of your home, exposes any hidden rot or pest damage, and resets the curb-appeal clock for the next 30-50 years.
Potomac Custom Remodeling has completed full re-sides on more than 1,200 Mid-Atlantic homes. We install exclusively CertainTeed premium vinyl — lifetime-warranted — and coordinate every project with new house wrap, trim, soffit, fascia, and window/door flashing — never just panels alone.
Why Full Tear-Off Is Worth Every Dollar
Recover installs (new siding installed directly over old) sound cheaper but they hide the very problems you are trying to solve: moisture trapped behind old panels, rotted sheathing, failing house wrap, rodent or insect damage. They also void manufacturer warranties for most premium product lines. We tear down to bare sheathing on every project so we can verify the actual condition of your home and install a brand-new building envelope.
New House Wrap — A Modern Building Envelope
We install Tyvek HomeWrap or Typar MetroWrap over the entire wall area, with proper 6" overlapping seams, wrinkle-free tension, taped seams, and integrated window/door flashing using flexible flashing tape. The result is a continuous water-resistive and air-control barrier that dramatically improves both energy efficiency and weather protection — independent of the siding itself.
Coordinated Trim, Soffit & Fascia
Existing wood trim is wrapped with .024" aluminum coil stock or replaced with cellular PVC for a maintenance-free finish that matches your siding color exactly. Vented soffit panels rebalance attic ventilation. Aluminum fascia wrap replaces or covers existing wood fascia. The roofline transition becomes one cohesive system rather than a collection of patched-together materials.
Hidden Damage Repairs — Priced Transparently
On most homes we find at least some sheathing rot at penetrations, window sills, or behind gutters. We replace damaged sheathing with new OSB or plywood at our published per-sheet rate (typically $85-$120 installed) — itemized on your invoice, never a surprise change order.
Design Your Perfect Exterior — Without Pressure
Large-format color samples brought to your home, mix-and-match profile renderings (horizontal field with shake gables is our most popular upgrade), HOA submittal handling. We help you build an exterior you'll love for the next 30 years.

Siding Replacement in Maryland & Delaware — Local Realities
Mid-Atlantic homes are punished by humidity, freeze-thaw cycles, summer UV, and Atlantic storms. Re-siding here is not just cosmetic — it is the single most effective way to protect a home's structure for the next 30+ years. Generic national siding advice rarely accounts for our coastal wind zones, stricter HOA review processes, or county permit requirements.
Permit & HOA Realities
Anne Arundel, Howard, Montgomery, and Prince George's counties require permits for siding replacement. Delaware permits are required statewide; Sussex County additionally enforces hurricane nailing patterns within 10 miles of the coast. HOAs in nearly every planned community in MD/DE require pre-approval — we handle every submittal.
Coastal Wind Zones
Within 10 miles of the Atlantic or the Chesapeake we install insulated panels (CedarBoards or Structure) with 150-170 mph ratings, stainless ring-shank fasteners, and reinforced J-channel. Standard .040 builder vinyl in these areas typically fails within 5-7 years.
