Your siding is the first line of defense for the walls of your home. In North Texas, it takes the same hail and wind that hit your roof, plus hours of direct sun every summer. Cracked, holed, warped, or rotting siding lets water get behind it, where it can damage sheathing and framing out of sight. RezComm Roofing & Construction repairs and replaces siding for homeowners across Dallas–Fort Worth, often as part of a storm repair or roof project.
Every siding project starts with a FREE, no-obligation estimate. If you think a storm caused the damage, we can also run a FREE storm history report for your address and a FREE AI drone roof scan, since siding damage and roof damage often go together.
Small areas of damage can often be repaired. When damage is widespread, when matching the existing material is not possible, or when moisture has gotten behind the walls, replacement may be the better choice.
Most North Texas homes combine brick or stone with siding on gables, upper stories, and accent walls. These are the siding materials we see most often, with the general tradeoffs of each.
Fiber cement is made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. It is popular in DFW because it is durable, resists rot and insects, and stands up well to heat. It is generally rated as noncombustible, which is why many homeowners consider it for fire resistance. It can look like wood lap siding, shingles, or panels, and it can be painted. The tradeoffs: it is heavier and more labor-intensive to install than vinyl, and it needs to be painted and caulked properly to perform well over time. Large hail can still damage it, though it generally holds up better to impact than vinyl.
Vinyl siding is lightweight, generally less expensive, and comes in many colors that do not need painting. Its weaknesses in North Texas are impact and heat. Vinyl can crack or puncture in hail, can become more brittle with age and cold, and can warp from intense heat, including reflected sunlight from nearby windows. It also needs room to expand and contract, so installation technique matters.
Natural wood siding has a classic look but needs regular painting or staining and is vulnerable to rot and insects if water gets in. Engineered wood siding is manufactured from wood strands and resins, treated for moisture and insect resistance, and is lighter than fiber cement. Both need good paint and careful attention to water management at trim and the bottom edges.
When only part of a wall is damaged, the goal is often a repair that matches the rest of the house. Matching can be tricky when the original product has been discontinued or has faded in the sun. We will tell you up front if an exact match is not available and what your options are.
Siding problems often start at the roof. Overflowing or missing gutters can dump water down the face of a wall, and missing kick-out flashing where a roof meets a wall can send water behind the siding. That is why RezComm looks at the full picture. If needed, we can handle gutter installation, roof repair, or a full roof replacement along with your siding, so one crew is responsible for how the pieces fit together.
Hail and wind that damage roofs often damage siding too, so siding is commonly part of a storm claim. Coverage depends on your policy and what the adjuster finds. RezComm helps by:
RezComm does not negotiate or adjust claims. Texas law reserves that for licensed public adjusters. We never promise a claim will be approved, and Texas law requires you to pay your own deductible. A contractor cannot pay or waive it. See our storm damage repair page for more on the process.
Our installation is backed by RezComm's 5-year workmanship warranty, and siding products carry their own manufacturer warranties, which vary by product. RezComm carries $1,000,000 in general liability coverage through Berkshire Hathaway Direct Insurance Company, with a certificate available on request, and holds a general contractor license covering our service cities. Financing is available through Acorn Finance.
Small repairs can often be scheduled quickly once materials are in hand. Full replacements take longer depending on the size of the home, the material, how much sheathing needs repair, and whether painting is part of the job. If insurance is involved, the adjuster's schedule and the claim decision come first. Weather can affect scheduling, and we will keep you informed.
There is no single best choice. Fiber cement is popular for its durability, heat tolerance, and fire resistance. Vinyl costs less and needs no painting but is more prone to hail cracks and heat warping. Wood and engineered wood offer a natural look with more maintenance. We will help you weigh the options for your home.
Often, yes. If the original product is discontinued or has faded, an exact match may not be possible, and we will explain your options before work starts.
Many policies cover sudden storm damage, but coverage depends on your policy and the adjuster's findings. We document the damage and meet the adjuster, but we do not negotiate claims or promise approval.
Yes. We regularly handle roofing, gutters, and siding together, which helps make sure flashing and water management between them are done right.
Soft or swollen boards, recurring paint failure, and stains on interior walls are common clues. We check the sheathing behind damaged siding when we remove it and repair what we find.
