Siding Replacement in Lykens, PA
When siding on a Lykens home has cracked, warped, or let moisture through for too long, patching stops being worth it. Richards Siding handles full replacements, working around Dauphin County's freeze-thaw winters and humid summers so the new material lasts.
Built for This Climate
We select replacement siding rated for the temperature swings common to this part of Pennsylvania, reducing the risk of cracking after a few winters.
Sheathing Inspection Included
Before installing anything new, we check the wall sheathing underneath for rot or soft spots left behind by failing siding.
Matched to Older Home Styles
Lykens has a good number of older homes, and we adjust trim and detail work to fit that architecture rather than forcing a generic look.

Common Reasons Lykens Homeowners Replace Siding
Storm Damage
Wind and hail can crack or knock loose enough siding that a full replacement makes more sense than spot repairs.
Widespread Rot
When moisture has gotten behind siding in multiple spots, replacement addresses the whole problem at once.
Persistent Drafts
Old, gapped siding lets in cold air, driving up winter heating costs.
Fading Across the Whole House
Years of sun exposure can leave siding uneven in color, which replacement fixes uniformly.
Planning to Sell
New siding is one of the more noticeable updates when preparing a Lykens home for sale.
Outdated Style
Some homeowners replace siding simply to update an older look.

What material do you recommend for Lykens homes?

Can I get financing or payment plans?
