Get DetailsHow It Works
{We start with a free visit to your Henrico property — no pressure, no sales pitch. One of our experienced estimators walks the perimeter, checks the current exterior condition, takes measurements, and listens to what you want from the project. You'll get a clear, itemized written estimate that breaks down material, labor, and any prep work needed.
Most estimates are completed in a single visit of 30 to 60 minutes. If we spot anything unexpected — moisture damage, deteriorated sheathing, or problem areas around windows — we'll flag it honestly so there are no surprises on installation day. Our goal at this stage is information, not a signature.
Once you've reviewed the estimate and have questions answered, we help you select the right material for your home and budget. Whether you're choosing between vinyl profiles, weighing the value of insulated backing, or comparing fiber cement to engineered wood, we give you honest guidance based on what we've seen hold up in Henrico, VA's conditions.
Scheduling is handled around your availability. We give you a firm installation window, order your materials in advance, and confirm everything before the crew shows up. You won't be left wondering when we're coming — clear communication is part of how we work.
On installation day, our crew arrives on time, sets up site protection for your landscaping and walkways, and gets straight to work. Old siding is removed methodically, the sheathing is inspected, and any substrate issues are addressed before new material goes up. We work to manufacturer specifications so your product warranty stays fully intact.
Throughout the day, a lead installer oversees the work and is available to answer questions. We don't rush through tricky areas like window flanges and corner returns — those spots require patience and precision, and that's exactly what they get from our team.
Before we pack up, we do a complete walkthrough of the finished exterior with you. We check panel alignment, trim seams, corner consistency, and every area that was worked. If you spot something that doesn't look right, we address it on the spot — not weeks later.
We clean the site completely, dispose of all old siding material, and leave your property better than we found it. You'll receive documentation for your warranty registration and a direct contact for any follow-up. The goal is that you feel completely confident in the work before we call the job done.
The Full Picture
Understanding what separates a lasting siding installation from a problematic one starts with what's behind the panels. At SOS Roofing and Siding, we inspect every substrate before installation begins on any Henrico job. Rotted sheathing, insufficient house wrap coverage, and improperly flashed windows are the most common root causes of siding failures — and they're all detectable before installation starts if you know what to look for.
The substrate — typically oriented strand board or plywood sheathing — has to be dry, structurally sound, and free of soft spots or delamination before new siding can go over it. Where we find compromised areas, we address them as part of the installation scope. Skipping this step to save time is something we simply won't do, because the warranty on the product and on our own labor depends on everything underneath being solid.
Flashing at windows, doors, and roof-to-wall junctions is where many DIY installations fail. Metal or flexible flashing has to be integrated into the window's drainage plane so water sheds outward — not inward toward the framing. Sill pan flashing, head flashing, and kickout flashing at roof intersections all require specific sequencing that's easy to get wrong if you're not experienced with it. Our installers follow manufacturer and building science protocols at every transition point.
One of the questions we hear most often from Henrico homeowners is whether DIY siding installation is worth attempting. The honest answer depends on the scope and the experience level of the person doing it. Small repairs and patch work can be handled by a careful homeowner. A full exterior installation, however, involves moisture management, structural decisions, and techniques that take crews years to develop. Mistakes during installation don't always show up right away — they show up two winters later as interior water damage or as bubbling, warped panels that have to come down.
On the day of your installation, here's what the experience looks like from a homeowner's perspective: the crew arrives, introduces the lead installer, and walks you through what will happen. Your landscaping is covered or protected before removal begins. Old panels and materials are loaded into a container or truck throughout the day so debris doesn't accumulate on your lawn. You can come and go freely — most homeowners don't need to be present the entire time, though you're welcome to check in any time.
