Siding
Siding installation and repair across DFW
Vinyl, fiber cement, and wood cladding installed over a dry wall — so the new elevation still looks right after the second August.
Siding in North Texas fails in predictable ways: UV bleach, hail bruises, and water that entered at a window head and ran behind the course. Replacing the face without fixing the weather barrier is how you buy the same job twice. Genes Construction installs and repairs siding as part of the whole envelope — often in the same visit as roof, gutter, or paint work.
We help you choose a product that matches the house and the maintenance you actually want to do. Fiber cement takes paint and impact better; vinyl is lighter on the budget; wood is beautiful and honest about upkeep.
What we handle
Fiber-cement siding
Durable laps and panels with a painted or stained look, fire resistance, and better hail manners than thin vinyl.
Vinyl siding
A cost-effective refresh with insulated options that tighten the wall. We specify colors that will not chalk into a different house in five summers.
Wood siding
Classic profiles when the architecture calls for it, with flashing and finish details that slow the Texas sun down.
Repairs and matching
Cracks, holes, and storm hits repaired with attention to course lines and color so the patch does not announce itself from the street.
How a job actually runs
01
Read the wall
We check moisture, wrap, window pans, and what the last installer skipped. You see it before we pull a course.
02
Install dry
Housewrap, flashings, and starter courses first. Panels go on level; corners and J-channels are not an afterthought.
03
Finish and maintain
Caulk only where it belongs. We leave you with a simple wash-and-inspect list so the elevation lasts.
Questions we hear first
How do I know if siding should be repaired or replaced?
Widespread warping, open joints, mold behind the cladding, or a color that can no longer be matched usually means replacement. Isolated cracks and hail hits can be repaired. We will not sell a full elevation if a few courses will do.
Will new siding lower energy bills?
Insulated vinyl and a correctly wrapped wall reduce leakage. The roof, attic, and windows still do most of the thermal work, but a tight cladding job is part of a cooler house.
How long does a siding job take?
A typical single-family home is a few days to a week depending on elevations, window count, and whether trim is being replaced. Weather and paint-curing windows can stretch fiber-cement jobs.
Can you install siding and paint in one project?
Yes. Many of our exterior packages combine siding, trim, and paint so the colors and flashings are decided once. See exterior painting for finish details.
