Siding in Florence, NJ
Lightning Construction handles siding across Florence, New Jersey — a Burlington County town of about 5,076 homes with a median build year of 1971 — veteran-owned, GAF-certified, no deposit and no change orders. Most Florence projects run $10,000 to $22,000.
Siding in Florence, house by house.
Florence counts about 5,076 housing units, and the median one went up in 1971 — through the 1960s and early 1970s. About 63% predate 1980. Around 31% of homes here predate 1940 entirely.
Most houses from this stretch are on their second skin already — aluminum in the 1960s and 1970s, early vinyl after that. The second re-clad is the one where the wall finally gets done properly.
Wall areas vary enormously between the single-family houses and the two- and three-families here, which is why siding quotes in town range more widely than people expect.
About 82% of homes here are owner-occupied, so most of what we quote goes to the person who will actually live under the roof.
Local conditions we build for
Burlington County is the state's largest county by area, reaching from close-in suburbs out into the Pine Barrens, and Florence is part of it. The pines around Florence are the condition that matters most here. Needle drop is continuous here, and needles behave differently from leaves — they mat, they hold water, and they do not blow clear. Shaded walls under pine cover stay damp and grow mildew on the north and east elevations. Ground near Delaware River holds water longer, which puts more demand on drainage than a drier lot half a mile away.

“Honest about everything. They showed up on time, kept the property clean, and the roof came out amazing. Made everything stress free.”
Straight answers.
Siding in Florence typically runs $10,000 to $22,000. What moves a given house within that band is size, pitch and what is already on the roof — and with a median build year of 1971 and 63% of the stock built before 1980, Florence sees more of that variation than a newer town would. That is all visible at the free inspection, so the written number accounts for it.
Yes. New Jersey issues construction permits at the municipal level, so a siding in Florence is permitted through the local construction office under the state Uniform Construction Code. We pull it and meet the inspector; you file nothing.
Not harder, but less predictable. About 63% of homes in Florence were built before 1980, and on houses that age we regularly find board decking, more than one layer of shingle, or flashing that was never done properly. We inspect for all three before quoting.
Most jobs run one to three days depending on the size of the house. Florence is about 27 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
Yes — Roebling is part of the same municipality as Florence, and our crews cover the whole of it at the same pricing.
Nothing up front. We finish the job in Florence, you look at it, then you pay. Financing is available and does not change what we quoted.
