Siding Installation & Replacement in Tappan, NY

Siding in Tappan spans the full range of the hamlet's housing ages. The oldest historic district structures from the 18th and early 19th centuries were built primarily in local Dutch sandstone — not conventional siding — but have wood clapboard additions and secondary structures where period-appropriate material selection matters. Residential homes from the late 19th and early 20th centuries along the district edges have original wood clapboard siding now 80-120 years old. The postwar residential stock surrounding the historic core has conventional aluminum and vinyl systems from the 1950s through 1970s past useful life on many properties. Tappan's mature canopy shade and Sparkill Creek proximity promote faster paint failure on wood and more active moisture intrusion on inadequately protected surfaces.
