Project Overview: Restoring a 100‑Year‑Old Home With New Siding, Insulation & Windows
One of the most rewarding parts of our work is the privilege of restoring beautiful older homes and helping bring them back to their former glory. This 100‑year‑old home needed extensive exterior updates, and our team was honored to help preserve its charm while improving its comfort and efficiency.
Our homeowners chose crisp white CertainTeed vinyl siding, paired with 1/4" insulated foam board to enhance performance. This underlayment provides several key benefits, including:
Improved insulation and reduced air leakage, helping the home stay warmer and more energy‑efficient
Moisture protection, thanks to its perforated design that allows vapor to escape and prevents trapped moisture in the walls
A smoother, level surface for siding installation, ideal for older homes with uneven exterior walls
Light sound‑dampening qualities, as the foam structure can help absorb some noise, though not as much as dedicated acoustic materials
To complete the restoration, we installed new energy‑efficient vinyl windows and matching white seamless 5" gutters, giving the home a clean, cohesive, and historically respectful finish.
This transformation not only revived the home’s exterior beauty but also delivered better insulation, improved comfort, and long‑lasting protection—a true blend of old‑home character and modern performance.
