Frequently asked questions
What types of siding do you install?
We work with many of the top products on the market, including vinyl, composite, aluminum, cedar shake, wood clapboard, and stone. If you’re unsure which material suits your home best, we’ll help you weigh the pros and cons of each.
How long does a typical siding installation take?
Most projects take 2 to 3 weeks on average. We may take a bit longer than larger companies—but that’s by design. We believe attention to detail takes time, and we never rush quality. The size of your home and the scope of work can affect the timeline, and we’ll keep you informed every step of the way.
Do I need to be home during the installation?
Not necessarily. We’ll coordinate access and keep you updated throughout the process, whether you're home or away.
Do you offer a warranty on installation?
Yes. Hitchcraft warranties all installations for 2 years after completion. If something wasn’t done right, we’ll make it right.
What kind of warranty comes with the siding itself?
Most manufacturers offer limited lifetime warranties on their siding products, covering defects like cracking, warping, or fading. We’ll walk you through the specifics for your chosen brand.
What’s the difference between a manufacturer warranty and an installation warranty?
Manufacturer warranties cover the product itself. Installation warranties cover how it was installed. Both matter—and we stand behind both.
Will my warranty be voided if I paint the siding?
It depends on the product. Some siding is paintable, others aren’t. We’ll advise you before installation so you don’t lose coverage.
Can you repair damaged siding or trim?
Definitely. Whether it’s a small patch or a full section, we handle repairs with the same care and precision as full installs.
What if my siding was damaged by a storm?
We offer responsive repair services for storm damage. We’ll assess the impact, document it for insurance if needed, and restore your exterior with minimal delay.
What should I do if I notice loose or missing panels after a storm?
Contact us right away. Even minor damage can lead to bigger issues if left untreated. We’ll inspect and repair as needed.
What kinds of trim do you offer?
We install a wide range of trim styles—from clean and classic to bold and decorative. We’ll help you choose accents that elevate your home’s curb appeal.
Can I upgrade my trim without replacing the siding?
Absolutely. Trim upgrades are a great way to refresh your home’s look without a full siding overhaul.
Who will be working on my home?
Our in-house team handles every project—no subcontractors, no surprises. You’ll get consistent quality and clear communication from start to finish.
What makes Hitchcraft different?
We blend technical precision with creative flair. Every project is treated like a craft, not just a job. We’re meticulous, imaginative, and proud of the magic we bring to exteriors.
Do you offer design guidance?
Yes! We love helping homeowners explore color palettes, material combinations, and layout ideas. Whether you want bold contrast or subtle charm, we’ll help you find your signature look.
Is Hitchcraft a good fit for small repairs or big transformations?
Both. Whether it’s a single panel or a full exterior makeover, we bring the same care, creativity, and craftsmanship to every job.
