This home’s stucco had seen better days! Fortunately, our team was tasked to remodel this Broomall house with new James Hardie Navajo Beige siding, upgraded stone, new windows, and new window trim.
We are pleased with the transformation; take a look:
This project entailed removing this Broomall, PA home’s brick and vinyl siding then installing new James Hardie Iron Gray siding as well as new Simonton windows.
We also incorporated a white Aztec trim as an extra design element. The trim not only accentuates the siding but also offers a coastal style to the exterior of this home.

We recently took on the job of removing siding for a homeowner in Swarthmore and replacing it with James Hardie shingle and lap siding in evening blue. Evening blue is a rich, deep shade that works very well on this home. Houses that are on the smaller side and have lots of interesting detail benefit from being clad in darker siding–it helps them to stand out.
After installing the siding, we also added new downspouts, fascia capping, gutters, windows, trim, and a new storm door.
We enjoyed this project in Aston. This customer asked us to remove their aging vinyl siding and replace it with James Hardie Lap siding and board and batten. For the new siding, these homeowners chose the color Cobble Stone, which is a pale gray. The difference in the dark color of the shutters and the light siding creates an elegant contrast in the curb appeal of this home.
James Hardie is our top choice for exteriors. We love that it’s durable and attractive, plus, since it resists water absorption, it doesn’t attract mold or pests. We recently were recognized by James Hardie as an Elite Preferred contractor. Check out our James Hardie page to learn more.
In addition to the installation of new siding, we also installed a new garage window, shutters, a new front door, a rear door, and a garage entry door.
Stucco is common in the Delaware Valley. Unfortunately, it’s very prone to damage. We recently headed to this home in Collegeville, PA. The stucco and vinyl siding had been damaged due to moisture, which resulted in cracks in the foundation. We were able to repair the damaged stucco, plus we replaced the damaged vinyl siding with Certainteed, and we also installed new downspouts.
If your stucco has developed mold behind it, we also handle stucco remediation projects. In the meantime, check out these photos of the project in Collegeville.
While at this home in Perkiomenville, we were excited to give them the full royal treatment: a new roof and new siding.
This customer contacted us when they noticed some signs of wear in their roof, including missing granules and shingles that were curling up at the edges. You can check out this post for other warning signs that your roof needs to be replaced. We removed the damaged roof and replaced it with GAF Timberline shingles. We also removed the damage vinyl siding and replaced it with Certinteed. To finish things up, we installed new fascia capping, gutters, and downspouts.
Stucco has a tendency to get mold behind it. For people who live in humid areas, like Southeastern PA, it isn’t really a matter of whether their stucco will get mold behind it, it’s a matter of when. Fortunately, it is possible to salvage homes with moldy stucco, especially if you tackle the problem early on.
We usually recommend our clients to replace their stucco with James Hardie fiber cement siding, which has many benefits over other claddings. This client, located in West Chester, opted for James Hardie siding in the color Arctic White. While we were at their house, we also installed a new roof, a new entry door, a new patio side door, and put in new windows, gutters, downspouts, and gutter guard.
We are excited to share these photos from a recent project in Springfield, PA. This homeowner needed a new roof, which we were happy to provide, along with new James Hardie fiber cement siding in the color Evening Blue.
We also installed a new deck using pressure-treated wood, and finished off the deck with a new vinyl railing system. The homeowners got new window and door trim, a new garage door, and new fascia capping.
The vinyl siding on this West Chester home had started to show wear in some places. This doesn’t just create an unkempt look, but it takes away from the cladding’s primary function, which is to keep heat in and to keep moisture, cold, and loud noises out. In addition, siding is intended to create a visually appealing look for your home.
Fiber cement is long-lasting and highly insulating. It’s easy to install, which helps keep installation costs low. We also happen to think it looks really nice! This homeowner chose new fiber cement siding in a color called Boothbay Blue. We also installed new gutters, new downspouts, new fascia capping, and new garage windows. Their chimney was in need of repairs, so we took care of that as well.
