Smithys Masonry & Construction | Masonry/Concrete & Roofing in Boston, MA 02122

For durability against our variable New England weather, we often recommend fiber cement siding, particularly James Hardie products. As a James Hardie Preferred Contractor, we install siding specifically engineered to resist moisture, wind, and temperature swings common in Boston. This helps prevent rot, warping, and damage from ice dams, providing a long-lasting, low-maintenance solution for your home.

Absolutely. Ice dams are a common local issue that can force water behind siding, causing damage to the underlying structure. Our process involves first assessing and addressing any roof-related causes to prevent recurrence. We then carefully remove and replace the compromised siding sections, ensuring proper sealing and integration with the existing material to restore both the appearance and weather-tight integrity of your home's exterior.

Our extensive local experience means we've seen and solved a wide range of siding challenges specific to Boston-area homes. This knowledge allows us to accurately diagnose issues, recommend the most effective repair or replacement strategy, and execute the work efficiently. You benefit from tried-and-true techniques, an understanding of local building codes, and a commitment to craftsmanship that stands the test of New England seasons.
