A Worn Exterior Ready for Replacement
This home in Trumbauersville, PA was ready for a major exterior upgrade. The existing siding had experienced years of weather exposure, and it was clearly beginning to show its age.
Paint had chipped away in multiple areas, sections of the siding had started to crack, and the overall color had faded considerably.
Over time, siding like this stops doing its job properly. Moisture can find its way in, and the home simply begins to look worn down.
After evaluating the condition of the exterior with the homeowner, our team at XL Home Improvements recommended a full siding replacement.
From several angles around the home, the siding showed consistent signs of wear. While board and batten siding can last many years, exposure to Pennsylvania weather eventually takes its toll.
At this point, replacing the siding was the best way to restore both protection and curb appeal for the property.
Removing the Old Siding and Preparing the Home
Once the project began, our crew carefully removed the existing siding from the home. With the old materials removed, the exterior structure could be properly prepared for the new siding system.
The entire home was wrapped with Tyvek House Wrap, which provides an important moisture barrier. This protective layer helps prevent water infiltration while allowing the wall system to breathe properly.
Before installing the new siding panels, our team also installed several important siding components, including:
- J-channel around windows and doors
- Corner posts for clean vertical edges
- Light blocks for exterior fixtures
- Custom starter flashing to direct water away from the siding
These installation details play a major role in the long-term performance of the siding system.
Installing CertainTeed Board & Batten Siding
With the house properly prepared, the installation of the new siding began. For this project, the homeowner selected CertainTeed Board & Batten vertical siding, which provides both durability and a clean, modern appearance.
Board and batten siding has become increasingly popular because of its bold vertical lines and timeless design. It works especially well on homes surrounded by wooded landscapes like many properties throughout Montgomery County.
During the project, our crew also replaced the roof on the right-side bay window using CertainTeed Landmark shingles, ensuring that the entire exterior area was properly updated.

The Transformation
Seeing the comparison side by side highlights just how much of an improvement the new siding made. What was once faded and worn now looks clean, strong, and built to handle the seasons ahead.
