Greater Charlotte Contracting installs, repairs, and replaces residential siding throughout the Greater Charlotte metro. If your exterior is showing rot, impact damage, fading, or just hasn't held up the way it should, siding replacement is one of the highest-return upgrades you can make to a home. Clint has handled siding as part of full exterior renovations and as a standalone replacement project, and he'll tell you straight which option makes sense for your house before any work starts. Call (704) 957-5323 to set up a look.
The cost of a siding project depends on a handful of things: total square footage, the material you choose, what's underneath (rotted sheathing adds scope), how many penetrations and trim details need custom work, and whether the job is a partial replacement or a full tear-off. Vinyl siding sits at the lower end of the material range and holds up well in the heat and humidity the Southeast throws at it every summer. Fiber cement, including Hardie board, costs more upfront but it won't warp, rot, or get eaten by insects, which matters a lot in areas with older tree canopy and damp soil. Engineered wood siding is a middle option some homeowners prefer for the look. Every job is different, contact Greater Charlotte Contracting for an accurate estimate.
Material Options
The right material depends on your budget, your home's existing structure, and how long you want to go before touching it again.
The most common residential choice for a reason. It's affordable, low-maintenance, and doesn't need painting. Modern profiles have improved significantly. It can crack in very hard impacts and doesn't insulate quite like fiber cement, but for most homes it's a solid call.
Fiber cement siding is made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibers pressed together. It won't rot, it's fire-resistant, and it holds paint far longer than wood. Hardie board is the most common brand name. It's heavier and costs more to install, but the durability justifies it for most exterior renovations.
Looks like natural wood without the maintenance demands. Engineered wood is treated to resist moisture and insects, and it's lighter than fiber cement. A good middle-ground option when you want the aesthetic of wood siding but aren't ready to repaint every few years.
Siding never exists in isolation. Fascia, soffit, corner trim, and window wraps have to be addressed at the same time or the finished job looks half-done. A complete exterior repairs scope accounts for all of it, not just the field panels.
Our Process
Most homeowners haven't had a siding project done before and don't know what to expect. Here's how it actually goes.
Clint walks the exterior and looks at what's there: condition of the current siding, what's behind it, any rot or moisture damage in the sheathing, trim condition, and how the penetrations (vents, outlets, fixtures) are handled. The estimate reflects what he actually finds, not a generic square-footage guess.
Old siding comes off. Sheathing gets inspected and repaired where it's compromised. House wrap or moisture barrier goes on before a single panel is installed. Skipping or cheaping out on this step is how water gets behind new siding within two years. We don't skip it.
Panels go up, starter strips are set level, and the detail work around windows, doors, corners, and vents gets done to a finished standard. The last 10% of a siding job, the trim and custom bends, is where most of the visible quality lives. That's where extra time gets spent.
Honest Scope
One soft area might be a localized moisture entry point. Soft spots in multiple locations, especially around windows and at the base of walls, usually mean the sheathing underneath is compromised and patching the surface doesn't solve what's underneath.
Bubbling under the surface means moisture is already trapped. Warped panels won't lie flat again. Severe fading isn't just cosmetic. It means the material has degraded to the point where it's no longer doing its job as a weather barrier.
Failed siding that's allowed air infiltration behind the walls affects your HVAC load. If your bills have climbed without a clear reason, the exterior envelope is worth investigating before you look at windows or insulation.
Gaps are where water enters. A gap at a window trim corner or a seam that's pulled open is an active leak path. In older homes throughout neighborhoods like Mint Hill and Huntersville, siding that's twenty-plus years old often shows this at multiple points simultaneously.
Straight from Google
Clint did such a great job helping us replace some outdoor vent covers. We had a basket style vent cover that had cracked and birds had nested inside. We had previously tried other handymen that would say they would come out and never showed because it was a small job. Clint came out very quickly, in the rain, and made it so much more efficient and esthetically pleasing. He was very affordable and professional. Clint is the MAN! He will now be our go to guy for other projects. I highly recommend him!
Robin ChristopherMay 2026 · GoogleSo, I just wanted to first of all thank Liz for the great referral to get my home project done. I was a bit nervous however after meeting Clinton, I can’t thank him and his team enough for the job well done to my satisfaction. Clinton listened to what I wanted and delivered just that. Clinton not only listened also very professional and knowledgeable. He gave me a step by step timeline and actually stuck to it. That’s very rare to find in a contractor however his team was awesome and went above and beyond my expectations with the attention to detail. So my rating is really a 10/10. I had a simple garage make over.

I would highly recommend anyone looking for work to be done in the Charlotte area to work with Greater Charlotte Contracting.

Joshua KellyFeb 2025 · GoogleNew siding often uncovers adjacent work that's easier to address at the same time than to schedule separately.
Twenty-plus years in the field means knowing exactly where corners get cut and refusing to cut them.
No siding over moisture damage
Installing new panels over rotted sheathing hides the problem for a year or two. It doesn't fix it. If there's rot underneath, it gets addressed before anything else goes on.
No vague estimates
Robert Persinger's review mentions a neatly itemized, perfectly detailed estimate. That's the standard. A single-line number with no breakdown is how surprises get buried.
No subcontractor runaround
When work needs to be redone, it gets redone. The accountability stays with Clint, not passed to whoever is on site that day.
No pressure toward a full replacement you don't need
If a targeted repair is the honest answer, that's what you'll hear. The goal is to tell you what your house actually needs, not to maximize the invoice.
