Siding Repair in San Francisco and the Peninsula

Siding fails a board at a time — the splash-zone course by the patio, the sun-side run that's split, the section behind a downspout that's been quietly wet for years. The fix is targeted replacement, matched so the repair disappears.

Siding Repair — the work up close

How we repair siding

We replace what’s failed and only what’s failed. Individual boards come out without disturbing sound neighbors; new stock is matched to the existing profile — bevel, channel, board-and-batten, grooved plywood on the mid-century homes — and to the reveal, so the coursing lines stay true. Cut ends and back faces get primed before they go on the wall, which is where longevity actually comes from.

Behind the board matters as much as the board. We check the paper or wrap at the opening, repair flashing where it’s failed, and make sure the new section sheds water onto — never behind — the course below. On stucco homes, we seal the cracks that are water paths (window corners, parapet lines) and leave the cosmetic crazing honestly alone.

Then the finish: spot-prime and touch-up to blend with the existing paint, feathered so there’s no flag saying “repair here.” Where the failure had a cause — a gutter overflowing at a corner, sprinklers hitting the wall, soil piled against the bottom course — the visit fixes that too.

Scope, plainly

  • Siding repair — boards/sections, matched to existing

Bigger than a repair? We'll say so at the walk-through and point you to people we trust.

What this doesn't cover

Major remodels, permit-requiring work, and full rebuilds are project territory — we'll tell you plainly at the walk-through, and when a job needs a licensed specialty trade we coordinate vetted subs on one invoice.

What it costs

One published member rate — $125/hr — booked in half- or full-day visits. No per-job quotes, no padding. 2 free hours apply first, to your first project each membership year. See membership pricing →

Common questions

All questions →
What happens at the walk-through?

About an hour, free. We document rooms, mechanicals, appliances, measurements and paint codes to start your home's record, then plan your first visit around a real first project.

I just bought my home. Can you use my inspection report?

Yes. Bring it to the walk-through and we'll turn its findings into your to-do list.

What does the membership include?

Annual Membership is $500/yr: a documented walk-through, your list managed by us, priority scheduling, the crew at $125/hr whenever you book, 2 free hours every membership year applied to your first project, an annual Home Health Check, a direct line to your home advisor, and access to our referral network of vetted tradespeople.

What's the hourly rate, and how does crew size affect it?

$125/hr, and that covers a crew of up to 2. When safety or scope needs more hands — heavy carries, working at height — each additional tech is $55/hr, and we flag it before we book the visit, never after.
