Siding Installation & Replacement Company in Mooresville, NC

Mooresville, NC's Top Rated Siding Installation Company

In our time working around Mooresville, NC, the local enemy we’re fighting on nearly every job is persistent humidity cycling off Lake Norman, where that 70 to 80 percent annual moisture load soaks into original wood siding and never fully dries before the next afternoon thunderstorm rolls through. That trapped moisture rots walls from the inside out. Over in the Mooresville Historic District, those late 1800s and early 1900s Italianate and Romanesque Revival homes still have original cedar clapboard that has long exceeded its 40 year service life, and we’re seeing a lot of soft, punky boards at the water table where splash back from decades of heavy rain has wicked moisture up behind layers of old lead paint.

The Mill Village Historic District is even worse in some ways because those early 1900s worker cottages were framed fast with minimal sheathing details, and the original wood siding is cupping and splitting at every nail penetration point where humidity has been working its way in for a century. Usually, the failure starts at the bottom courses. Just south of the Broad Street and Main Street intersection near the old depot, homes in the Academy Street Area are showing the same pattern of wood rot concentrated around window headers where there was never any integrated flashing to begin with. Fiber cement performs in this market specifically because its calcium silicate composition does not absorb ambient moisture the way wood fiber products do, meaning it stays dimensionally stable through Mooresville’s brutal summer humidity swings instead of swelling, cracking its paint film, and opening the door to bulk water intrusion behind the wall assembly.

Is Lake Norman Humidity Rotting Your Siding? Common Signs in Mooresville Homes.

We get this question on just about every walkthrough, and it usually boils down to two things: protecting what your home is worth and getting off the hamster wheel of constant patch repairs. Most homes in Mooresville are valued somewhere between $450,000 and $550,000, and that number jumps even higher in the historic districts. Bad siding drags that number down quick. We’re seeing a lot of folks who have spent years caulking warped joints, spot priming faded sections, and filling cracks only to add it all up and realize they could have paid for a full replacement with what they’ve already sunk into band aid fixes. That cycle doesn’t stop until you deal with what’s actually failing. Once water gets behind blown out cladding, it starts eating into the sheathing, and now you’re not just paying for siding but for reframing sections of wall. Catching it while the damage is still on the surface keeps the job on the exterior where your wallet can handle it. Whether you’re getting ready to list or you plan on staying another twenty years, new siding over a properly detailed weather barrier is the best way to keep moisture out of your walls and stop dumping money into fixes that never actually fix anything.

The put the life back into my old home.  They replaced my siding, performed repairs to damages, replaced sheathing, installed insulation, installed new windows (including repositions and adding new windows) and replacing my door with a larger door and staining.  I get endless compliments on how great it looks. I included some before and after photos.  White is before and green is after. Starting with Lin and working through the design process, she listened and understood what I needed and made recommendations and provided options for me to compare and use to appropriately budget.  Providing estimate of different design decisions and ways I can get what I was looking for.   that fit in my budget and gave me the look I was looking for.  We came up with a combination of board and batten with shingled gables.  She even gave me estimates on potential additions that could be needed like needing to replace sheathing on exterior so that I would not be blindsided if it came up JW was the project manager and he was always responsive, attentive and courteous.  Working with JW was a breath of fresh air after I had another contractor whose project manager was barely there and took days or something never responded to my messages or calls.  I was given expectations on start time and timeline and he did everything he could to keep the project on schedule.  With an old home like mine, issues do come up.  When they did, he made sure I was immediately informed and provided transparent pricing.  He was flexible and adjusted to accommodate changes and add ons I needed or wanted to make  on the project.  He was on-site a few times a week to make sure the crew was executing as expected.  He truly made you feel at ease. The entire crew was great.  They were knowledgeable and if they came across something they brought it to my attention and explained what they thought needed to be done and followed up with JW.  They were on time, worked hard and were always professional on site.  They would check with me if I was there to make sure it was what I wanted and adjusted if it wasn't.  I am happy with how my home has been transformed. Hatch homes also provided daily reports for what was done and pictures so you can see the progress whether or not I was there. I would recommend Hatch Homes for your exterior project needs.  From the design process to the finish of project, everyone I interacted with was professional, transparent and left me at ease with confidence that the they cared for my home and would do a good job.

From start to finish, working with Hatch Homes was a wonderful experience. Their detailed estimate showed every little detail that needed to be done. Their installers were perfectionists - they made sure everything was exactly right. They were real artists - not just nail bangers!  See before picture (vinyl siding) and after pictures (Hardie Board).

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hatch Homes renovated the exterior of two homes for us with Hardy Board. They do great work which is why I contracted them a second time. As the owner, I felt informed and appreciated. They have a program to view options on your home in advance which is nice so you can get a pretty good idea of what colors and styles of siding would look like. Yorin was in charge of this latest project and he is excellent to work with.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My husband and I have built our dream home ourselves, from the floor plans and elevations, to the framing and the rough-ins and everything. However, we knew that siding was going to be too much for us to take on given the height of the house and the number of specialized tools you need. We called Hatch early in the process and they worked with us to quote us on different siding materials so we could make an informed decision. We ended up with Ascend by  Allside in Laguna blue and PVC trim and molding around the windows and doors, corners and skirt board on the bottom. We could not be happier with the result! The foreman and crew were very polite and professional, knowledgeable, and patient with our questions! I would not hesitate to recommend them, and have to several folks already!

We can't wait to complete the rest of this project with Hatch Homes. We are having them replace our old siding with James Hardie, a new metal roof, along with new gutters. Great communication and execution from Hatch Homes.  I was so impressed with how reliable and honest they were.

Hardie Siding Replacement in Mooresville, NC

James Hardie fiber cement is what we put up more than anything else around the Lake Norman area, and that’s not because of some sales push. Hardie board is made from Portland cement, sand, and cellulose fiber, and once it cures you’ve got a rigid plank that barely takes on any moisture. That’s a big deal where humidity sits between 70 and 80 percent most of the year. Any siding that soaks up water is going to swell, pull on its nails, and crack its paint film. Hardie just doesn’t do that. On top of that, fiber cement won’t burn, woodpeckers can’t get through it, and termites want nothing to do with it. We’re seeing a lot of homeowners in the historic districts go with Hardie’s lap profile since it matches the old cedar clapboard dimensions without bringing along the rot problems that come with real wood around here. Hardie says 50 years on the lifespan, and based on what we’ve torn off after 20 plus years, we don’t argue with that number.

Vinyl Siding Replacement in Mooresville, NC

Vinyl catches a lot of flak from contractors who’d rather sell something pricier, but on the right job it makes sense and we have no problem saying so. PVC panels won’t rot, they don’t soak up Lake Norman moisture, and the newer formulas handle sun way better than the 90s vinyl that turned chalky after a few seasons. Where vinyl wins is price, running about 40 to 50 percent less than fiber cement. You never repaint it, and cleaning is just a garden hose. Now the trade offs. Vinyl is thinner, so it doesn’t block noise or handle impact like a cement plank does, and hail that would bounce off Hardie can crack a vinyl panel pretty easily. PVC also expands in the heat, and if it’s nailed too tight it buckles. Worth knowing too that buyers in Mooresville’s $500,000 plus market tend to view vinyl as a step down from the original wood or brick on the older homes around town.

Wood Siding Replacement in Mooresville, NC

Wood is what most of Mooresville’s older homes were built with, and we still install it where historic guidelines require it or the homeowner just wants real lumber on their house. Cedar and cypress hold up best in Iredell County because their natural oils fight off fungal rot better than pine or fir. That protection isn’t forever though. Out here, even good cedar needs fresh stain or paint every 5 to 7 years, and any cut end that goes up without back priming is going to wick moisture right into the grain. We’re seeing a lot of older homes where the last crew skipped that step, and now rot has kicked off at the butt joints and worked into the sheathing behind it. On the plus side, you can swap out individual boards without tearing into a whole wall, and wood insulates better per inch than vinyl or fiber cement. Plan on 20 to 40 years depending on how on top of maintenance you stay, because wood in this climate is not something you put up and walk away from.
