What siding services do we offer in the Capital Region?
We install and repair six types of siding. Each one has a different look, maintenance load, and price profile, so we walk you through the options on site instead of pushing a single product.
Vinyl siding
Vinyl is the most common choice on Capital Region homes because it never needs painting and cleans up with a garden hose. Our vinyl siding installation service covers standard and insulated profiles, trim, and accessories.
James Hardie fiber cement siding
Fiber cement is a dense, rigid board made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. It resists rot, insects, and fire, and it holds paint well. Learn more on our James Hardie fiber cement siding page.
LP SmartSide engineered wood siding
LP SmartSide gives you the look of real wood with a treated, engineered core. It is lighter than fiber cement and handles impacts well. See our LP SmartSide siding installation details.
Wood and cedar siding
Cedar clapboard and shakes suit historic homes and anyone who wants natural grain. Cedar needs regular finishing, and we explain that honestly. Visit our wood and cedar siding page.
Metal and aluminum siding
Steel and aluminum siding are durable, noncombustible, and a strong fit for modern homes, garages, and commercial buildings. Read about our metal and aluminum siding services.
Siding repair
Wind, ice, and moisture can loosen, crack, or rot sections of siding long before the whole wall fails. Our siding repair service handles storm damage, rot, partial replacement, and color matching.
How do the main siding materials compare?
The table below is a general comparison of widely known material traits. Real performance also depends on installation quality, so treat it as a starting point for the conversation.
| Material | Upkeep | Moisture and rot | Impact resistance | Common fit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Vinyl | Very low, no painting | Does not rot | Fair, can crack in deep cold | Budget conscious full replacements |
| Fiber cement | Low, repaint over time | Resists rot and insects | Good | Painted look, fire resistance |
| LP SmartSide | Low, repaint over time | Treated core, needs proper clearances | Very good | Wood look with less weight |
| Cedar | Higher, stain or seal regularly | Naturally resistant if maintained | Fair | Historic and craftsman homes |
| Steel or aluminum | Low | Does not rot | Steel good, aluminum dents easier | Modern homes and commercial |
For a deeper look at winter performance, our guide to the best siding for cold climates covers how each material handles freeze-thaw cycles.
What Capital Region homeowners say
Rated 5 stars by homeowners and business owners across the Capital Region. Read all reviews.
“My wife and I recently hired Mastaba Homes after some high winds partially tore back our sidings fascia. They were prompt in responding to our online submission (received a phone call in less than 15 mins, after business hours), and …”
“Jeff and his crew recently replaced our roof and are in the process of installing new window and siding on our home. The crew was in and out in one day and aside from the new roof, you couldn't tell anyone was there. Very professional, attentive, and fairly priced. Can't wait until the board and batten and new windows are up! I recommend to give them a call or email if interested in some renovations.”
“Great experience with Mastaba Roofing. The team was professional, on time, and delivered quality work. They explained everything clearly, worked efficiently, and left the place very clean. The whole process was smooth and stress-free. I would definitely recommend them for reliable roofing or home exterior work.”
How do you choose the right siding for your home?
Start with how long you plan to stay, how much upkeep you want, and the style of the house. A 1950s ranch in Colonie and a Victorian in Troy rarely call for the same answer.
- Maintenance: vinyl and metal need the least, cedar needs the most.
- Look: fiber cement and LP SmartSide take paint, cedar shows real grain, vinyl comes in fixed colors.
- Weather exposure: homes on open hills or near the Hudson take more wind-driven rain.
- Weight and wall condition: older framing sometimes favors lighter products.
- Budget and financing: material choice is the single biggest cost driver.
- Neighborhood and historic rules: some districts limit material choices.
Before you sign with anyone, our list of questions to ask siding contractors will help you compare bids on equal terms.
Why hire one contractor for both roof and siding?
Most exterior leaks start where two trades meet. When a roofer and a siding crew work separately, nobody owns the joint between the roof and the wall, and that is where water gets in.
- Roof-to-wall flashing: step flashing and kick-out flashing must tuck behind the siding and house wrap in the right order.
- Drip edge: the drip edge, gutters, and the top course of siding need to shed water away from the wall, not behind it.
- Soffit and fascia: these are trimmed and vented along with both the roof and the siding, so one crew keeps attic ventilation and trim lines consistent.
We handle all of it under one schedule and one warranty. If your fascia or soffit is rotted, our soffit and fascia repair service fixes it before new siding goes up. If your roof is near the end of its life, pairing the work with a full roof replacement saves a second round of setup. Our article on doing siding and roofing at the same time explains the tradeoffs.
What does a siding project with Mastaba Roofing look like?
- Free on site inspection and written estimate with material options.
- Material selection, color samples, and a confirmed start date.
- Removal of old siding and inspection of sheathing for rot.
- Repairs to sheathing, then house wrap and flashing at windows, doors, and roof lines.
- Installation of siding, trim, soffit, and fascia.
- Daily cleanup, a magnet sweep for nails, and a final walkthrough with you.
Our siding installation process guide walks through each stage in more detail.
What affects siding cost, and how do warranty and financing work?
Siding cost depends on the material, the wall area, the number of stories, and how many windows, doors, and corners need trim. Rotted sheathing, removal of multiple old layers, and added insulation also change the number.
We give every homeowner a free written estimate that lists materials and scope line by line, so you can compare it to other bids. Siding work is covered by our 10 year workmanship warranty. Manufacturer warranties vary by product, and we explain and register them for you.
We also offer $0 down financing up to 140 months, subject to credit approval, so you can replace failing siding now instead of patching it for another winter.

Siding Contractor in Albany NY and the Capital Region: frequently asked questions
Can new siding be installed during an Albany winter?
Yes, many siding jobs can continue through winter as long as crews follow cold weather installation practices. Vinyl becomes more brittle in deep cold, so it needs careful handling, and some finishes need minimum temperatures to cure. We will tell you during your estimate whether your material and schedule fit the season.
Do I need a building permit to replace siding in the Capital Region?
Permit rules vary from town to town and can depend on the scope of work and whether the home is in a historic district. We check the requirements for your address when we prepare your estimate. Our blog post on siding permits in Albany covers the basics.
Should I replace my roof and siding at the same time?
If both are aging, doing them together usually makes sense. One crew can flash the roof-to-wall joints correctly, set up equipment once, and coordinate gutters, soffit, and fascia. If only one is failing, we will tell you so and you can stage the work.
Do you install siding on commercial buildings?
Yes. Mastaba Roofing serves both residential and commercial customers, and metal siding in particular is a strong fit for commercial and light industrial buildings. We provide the same free written estimate and walk the site with you first.
Is house wrap really necessary under new siding?
Siding sheds most rain, but some water always gets behind it during wind-driven storms. A weather resistive barrier, properly lapped and taped, carries that water down and out instead of into the sheathing. We install it on every full siding replacement.
How many estimates should I get before choosing a siding contractor?
Getting two or three written estimates is a reasonable way to compare scope and materials. Make sure each bid lists the same items, such as house wrap, trim, flashing, and sheathing repairs, so you are comparing like for like. Our estimates are free and itemized so the comparison is easy.
