Vinyl vs. Wood Siding for Franklin NH's Older Homes

For older homes especially, choosing the right siding material is a decision that affects the property for decades. CertainTeed vinyl is the right call for most homeowners. It’s code-approved for asbestos and lead encapsulation, which is a real consideration on pre-war properties, and requires no painting. It carries a 50-year transferable warranty and resists moisture and temperature cycling without maintenance. A1 Pro’s standard half-inch furring insulation layer also addresses insulation gaps common in older construction at no added cost. Wood siding remains the correct choice for properties where traditional profiles are architecturally appropriate or structurally required. A1 Pro installs eastern white cedar, clapboard, board-and-batten, and tongue-and-groove, and assesses each job carefully before recommending repair versus full replacement. All wood siding work carries a 10-year labor warranty. A1 Pro will give you a clear recommendation at the free estimate, with no pressure and no upselling.

Frequently Asked Questions

The cost of siding installation in Franklin varies from home to home based on size, material choice, the current state of the existing siding and any sheathing issues underneath it, and the amount of preparation work required before installation can begin. A1 Pro gives every Franklin homeowner a free, fully itemized written estimate before any commitment is made. The estimate accounts for the actual scope of your project, not a generic average. We also offer a price-match guarantee, so if another licensed New Hampshire contractor has quoted you less for the same scope and materials, we will match or beat that number.
Yes. Siding installation in Franklin requires a permit. For a community with a significant share of older housing stock, having every project fully documented and code-compliant is particularly important. Permitted work protects your home’s value at resale, satisfies your insurance carrier, and ensures nothing comes back as a liability if you sell or refinance. Before hiring anyone, confirm that permitting is included in the project scope.
No specific season is required for siding installation in Franklin or the Merrimack Valley. A1 Pro installs CertainTeed vinyl and traditional wood siding throughout the year. While some homeowners believe exterior work should only happen in warmer months, the reality is that material and installation quality matter far more than the season. For older Franklin homes where siding may already be failing, waiting for a specific time of year is rarely the right call. A1 Pro will give you an honest assessment and timing recommendation during the free estimate.
For Franklin homeowners dealing with older construction, there are some specific things worth verifying before agreeing to a siding replacement. The first is what is actually behind the current siding. Pre-war homes commonly have sheathing, underlayment, or framing issues that are only visible once the old material comes off, and those need to be priced into the scope from the start. Second is material fit. Vinyl and wood siding perform differently on older homes, and the right choice here in Franklin depends on the property’s construction and your long-term maintenance expectations. Third, confirm your contractor is pulling permits and offering written warranties on both materials and labor. Fourth, require a fully itemized estimate before you commit. A1 Pro reviews every one of these with you during the free exterior assessment.
