The Piscataway houses we work on.
The typical home across the township was built in 1975, and of the 18,289 housing units here the median sits squarely in the late 1970s and 1980s. Something like 57% went up before 1980.
Cladding from this period is original vinyl at the end of its service life. By this age the panels have lost enough flexibility that repairs stop being practical.
Owner-occupancy runs around 64% in Piscataway, 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
Piscataway sits in Middlesex County — one of the busiest and most diverse counties in the state, built out in every decade since the war. Inland New Jersey does not have one dramatic weather problem; it has the freeze-thaw cycle, and it runs all winter. Water gets into a small opening, freezes, widens it, and comes back the next night. Over a few seasons that is what turns a nail pop into a leak, and a hairline crack in flashing into a stained ceiling. Behind siding it shows up as sheathing that has been quietly wet every winter for a decade. Ground near South Bound Brook 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 Piscataway 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 1975 and 57% of the stock built before 1980, Piscataway sees more of that variation than a newer town would. We work that out at the inspection, not after the job starts.
You do, and we take care of it. Permits for a siding come from the Piscataway construction office under the state Uniform Construction Code, and we pull the permit, schedule the inspection and meet the inspector ourselves.

Indirectly, yes. Properties near South Bound Brook sit lower and stay damper, which speeds up moss and algae growth on shaded slopes and puts more demand on gutters and downspouts than a drier lot a mile away.
