The Matawan houses we work on.
The typical home in Matawan was built in 1972, and of the 4,010 housing units here the median sits squarely through the 1960s and early 1970s. About 66% predate 1980.
These walls have been re-clad once already, and the product used is now forty to sixty years old. Whatever went on in the seventies is now well past its service life, and the sheathing behind it has never been protected.
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.
Owner-occupancy runs around 52% in Matawan, so a good share of the work here is for landlords and small property owners. Those jobs get the same written number and the same crews; they just tend to move faster.
The conditions this work has to survive
Monmouth County is inland horse country on one side and the northern shore on the other, and Matawan is part of it. Inland New Jersey does not have one dramatic weather problem; it has the freeze-thaw cycle, and it runs all winter. The mechanism is slow and cumulative: water enters a small defect, expands as it freezes, and leaves the defect slightly larger than it found it. Behind siding it shows up as sheathing that has been quietly wet every winter for a decade.

The cost of siding in Matawan.
Most siding projects in Matawan land between $10,000 and $22,000. Most jobs here come in below the midpoint. What pushes one higher is almost always something we can see before quoting — extra layers, a steep pitch, or soft decking. For context, the median home in Matawan is valued at about $470,000. The number on your estimate is the number you pay — we do not write change orders.

“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 Matawan 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 1972 and 66% of the stock built before 1980, Matawan sees more of that variation than a newer town would. The inspection settles it before you get a number.
Yes — this work is permitted by Matawan's own construction office under New Jersey's Uniform Construction Code. Handling the permit and the inspection is part of what we do, and it is already in the price.
Older houses hold more surprises, which is exactly why we look before we quote. Around 66% of the housing in Matawan is pre-1980, and that vintage often means decking or flashing work on top of the covering itself.
Usually a day or two; larger homes run to three. Matawan is about 10 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
Yes, and it is a large part of what we do here — owner-occupancy in Matawan runs about 52%, so most buildings are owned by someone other than the occupant. We quote per building, schedule around tenants, and the no-deposit terms are the same.
