Work Process

From the first site visit to final inspection sign-off, every stage runs on a single timeline with one point of contact. Here’s how a typical Levittown project unfolds.

Property Assessment: We inspect existing siding condition, wall sheathing, insulation, and any signs of moisture infiltration or structural deterioration. For homes built during the 1952–1958 construction period, we conduct asbestos testing before any removal work begins — this is mandatory, and we handle the process in-house.
Installation Plan & Documentation: We prepare a detailed scope covering installation methods, material specifications, and Bucks County permit requirements. Properties requiring asbestos abatement receive a separate EPA-compliant removal plan before installation documentation is finalized.
Permits & Abatement: We submit all paperwork to Bucks County’s building department and manage the approval process. Where asbestos removal is required, our licensed technicians complete certified abatement following EPA protocols before any new siding work begins.
Siding Installation: Our team installs a full weather-resistant barrier system — something original 1950s construction never included — then fits new panels to your home’s exact dimensions. We replicate original Cape Cod and Ranch trim profiles and corner details, maintaining the street-level consistency that defines the neighborhood.
Progress Updates: You receive regular updates with photos throughout the project. On 70-year-old homes, discoveries behind old siding are common — rotted sheathing, missing insulation, compromised framing. We walk you through any findings before proceeding.
Final Inspection & Cleanup: We coordinate the township inspection, complete full site cleanup, and hand over copies of the permit sign-off, abatement certification where applicable, and all warranty documentation. Your new siding comes backed by manufacturer warranties up to 30 years and our own workmanship guarantee.

Why 1950s Levittown Homes Need Different Siding Solutions

Cape Cod, Ranch, and original Levitt model homes built between 1952 and 1958 face challenges that newer construction never encounters. Seven decades of material aging, original construction methods, and Bucks County’s freeze-thaw cycles create conditions that require more than a standard replacement.

Aging Original Materials and Structural Failure: Many properties still carry exterior materials from the original construction period. After 70+ years of exposure, these show severe warping, brittleness, and complete failure at fastener points. Original aluminum siding deteriorates beyond repair, creating water infiltration pathways into structural framing and wall cavities. Modern replacement materials provide superior durability while maintaining the architectural proportions that define the neighborhood.

Asbestos in Original Siding and Insulation: A significant portion of homes built in this era contain asbestos in original siding materials, shingles, and wall insulation. Federal and state regulations require certified abatement before any replacement work begins. Our licensed technicians handle removal following EPA protocols, protecting your family and ensuring legal compliance. This step adds $2,000–$5,000 depending on material extent and accessibility — but eliminates health risks and legal liability entirely.

Water Damage from Decades Without Moisture Barriers: Original 1950s construction did not include the moisture barriers and ventilation systems standard in modern builds. With 24 inches of annual snowfall and winter temperatures averaging 30°F, freeze-thaw cycles push water through compromised siding into wall cavities. Signs include soft wood trim, interior water staining, mold growth, and peeling paint — all indicators that structural repairs are needed before new installation begins.

Uniform Street Design and Material Matching: Levittown’s planned layout means replacement siding needs to complement neighboring properties. We specialize in matching original Cape Cod and Ranch trim profiles, window surrounds, and corner treatments — using modern materials engineered for 30+ years versus the 15–20 years original products delivered. Material selection is guided by both performance requirements and neighborhood aesthetic consistency.

With home values ranging from $250,000 to $350,000, professional replacement prevents catastrophic water damage, eliminates health hazards from aging materials, and returns 75–85% of investment at resale — while upgrading energy efficiency that 1950s construction was never designed to deliver.

The same freeze-thaw cycles that stress siding also damage original roof edges and flashings on 70-year-old homes. If you’ve noticed ice buildup or shingle deterioration, our emergency roof repair team in Levittown handles those issues as well.

Siding Installation FAQs

Does my Levittown home contain asbestos siding?

Homes built during Levittown’s original 1952–1958 construction period have a high likelihood of containing asbestos in original siding materials, wall shingles, or insulation. Asbestos was widely used in residential construction through the late 1970s, so any home in this area built before 1980 should be tested before siding removal begins.

We conduct asbestos testing as part of our initial property assessment — at no additional charge. If asbestos is present, our licensed technicians handle certified removal following EPA protocols on-site, so there’s no need to hire a separate abatement contractor or delay your project.

How much does asbestos removal add to the project cost?

Certified asbestos abatement typically adds $2,000–$5,000 to the base installation cost, depending on the extent of contaminated material and its accessibility. Homes with asbestos in both siding and wall insulation fall toward the higher end of that range.

This cost is included as a separate line item in your written quote so you know exactly what you’re paying for before signing. Skipping proper abatement is not a legal option — and attempting DIY removal creates serious health and liability risks. Having it handled as part of your siding project is the most cost-efficient approach.

What siding material works best for a 1950s Cape Cod or Ranch home?

For most Levittown properties, we recommend either insulated premium vinyl or fiber cement depending on your priorities and budget:

Insulated vinyl ($8,000–$16,000) — best value option, handles Bucks County freeze-thaw cycles well, low maintenance, and available in profiles that match original Cape Cod and Ranch proportions. Reduces heating costs by 15–20% annually with insulated backing.
Fiber cement ($12,000–$22,000) — better long-term durability, superior moisture resistance, and ideal for homes with existing water damage history. James Hardie products come with a 30-year warranty and hold paint finish significantly longer than vinyl in high-sun exposures.

During the on-site assessment we’ll review your home’s specific condition, sun exposure, and any existing moisture issues to give you a material recommendation suited to your property rather than a generic answer.

Can you install new siding over the existing materials?

On most Levittown homes, we recommend against it — for two reasons specific to this area:

First, if the existing siding contains asbestos, installation over it is not legally compliant without proper abatement documentation. Second, 70-year-old homes almost always have moisture damage, insulation gaps, or sheathing deterioration hidden behind the original siding. Installing over existing materials without inspecting the wall assembly means locking those problems in, where they continue to worsen undetected.

Full removal allows us to inspect wall sheathing, install a proper weather-resistant barrier, add insulated backing, and address any structural repairs before new panels go up. The result is a significantly better installation that performs as designed for the next 30 years.
