Get Your Free EstimateCement siding, also known as fiber cement siding, is a composite material made from cement, sand, and cellulose fibers. Our service includes the precise installation of these durable boards onto your home's exterior, complete with proper flashing, sealing, and trim work to create a weather-tight envelope. We handle everything from the initial removal of existing siding to the final painting and cleanup, ensuring a complete and professional finish that stands up to Guymon's climate.
Our approach to cement siding installation prioritizes structural integrity and longevity. We begin by inspecting your home's sheathing and framing, addressing any deficiencies before installation begins. This foundational step is critical because it ensures the new siding has a stable, even surface, which prevents future issues like bowing or cracking. We use corrosion-resistant fasteners and follow manufacturer-specific guidelines for overlap and gap spacing, which means your siding will perform as intended for decades.
For Guymon, OK, cement siding offers distinct advantages. The area experiences significant temperature fluctuations, from hot, dry summers to cold winters, along with occasional severe thunderstorms and hail. Fiber cement is engineered to resist expansion and contraction, unlike wood, which prevents warping and paint failure. Its non-combustible nature also provides an added layer of fire protection, a valuable consideration in rural and suburban areas.
Homeowners often wonder about the maintenance requirements. While cement siding is low-maintenance, it's not no-maintenance. We advise periodic cleaning with a soft brush and mild detergent to remove dirt and mildew, typically every 1-2 years. Repainting may be necessary after 10-15 years, depending on the paint quality and exposure, which is a longer cycle than many other siding materials.
Cement siding provides exceptional durability against the specific environmental challenges faced by homes in Guymon, OK. Our region's high winds, intense UV exposure, and fluctuating humidity levels can degrade many siding materials quickly. Fiber cement, however, is formulated to resist these elements, meaning it won't rot, warp, or crack under typical Guymon conditions.
Beyond weather resistance, cement siding offers superior protection against pests common in the Oklahoma panhandle, such as termites and woodpeckers. Unlike wood, fiber cement is inorganic and too hard for these pests to damage, which translates to fewer repair costs and a more secure home envelope over time. This intrinsic resistance helps maintain the structural integrity of your home.
Furthermore, the fire resistance of cement siding is a significant benefit. With dry conditions sometimes prevalent, having a non-combustible exterior can offer a crucial layer of safety. This material does not ignite when exposed to flames, which can slow the spread of fire and provide more time for emergency response, enhancing the safety profile of your Guymon property.
We begin by carefully removing existing siding and inspecting the sheathing, house wrap, and framing for any damage or rot. This ensures a sound substrate for the new cement siding, which is critical for proper adhesion and long-term performance.
Before installing the panels, we apply new house wrap and strategic flashing around windows, doors, and penetrations. This creates a continuous moisture barrier, directing water away from the wall assembly and preventing water intrusion behind the siding.
Fiber cement panels are cut and installed with specific clearances and overlaps according to manufacturer specifications, using corrosion-resistant fasteners. We pay close attention to vertical alignment and horizontal leveling to ensure a uniform and aesthetically pleasing finish.
All seams, joints, and fastener heads are properly sealed with high-quality, paintable caulk to prevent moisture entry. We then install all necessary trim boards, soffits, and fascia, followed by a professional paint application to complete your home's new exterior.
