    Baker replaced our slate roof and they were absolutely excellent. Steven Bartz was professional and a pleasure to work with the entire process. From start to finish everything was flawless, and the final result is a truly beautiful roof.

    We were told by someone else that we needed an entirely new roof. Will gave us the honest news that we only had a few shingles and pipe boots to replace. His honesty and quick scheduling saved us so much stress (and money).

FAQ

Common siding replacement questions from Carolina homeowners

Do you install James Hardie siding?+

Yes. Baker is a James Hardie Alliance Elite contractor, so we install HardiePlank, HardieShingle, and board and batten to the spec the warranty depends on. We install vinyl too.

Should I choose fiber cement or vinyl?+

Fiber cement costs more and lasts longer, holds up to storms and fire better, and comes in factory-baked ColorPlus finishes. Vinyl costs less and needs almost no upkeep. We walk through both at the estimate so you can pick what fits your home and budget.

Will you fix what is behind the siding too?+

Yes. If we find rotted sheathing or missing flashing once the old siding is off, we show you photos and handle it. The part you cannot see is the part that keeps water out.

What happens during a siding install?+

We strip the old siding, inspect and repair any rotted sheathing, install proper house wrap, then install your new siding with the correct fasteners, flashing, and trim. We clean up every day.

Where do you replace siding?+

Siding runs out of our Raleigh-market team at the Apex branch, covering Raleigh, Cary, Apex, Durham, Wake Forest, and Holly Springs. Share your address and we will confirm coverage and set up a free quote.

Do you offer financing on siding?+

Yes. 0% for 24 months is available for qualifying homeowners, no deposit required. We explain the terms in plain English at the estimate.
