Siding in Riverside, NJ
Lightning Construction handles siding across Riverside, New Jersey — a Burlington County town of about 3,298 homes with a median build year of 1950 — veteran-owned, GAF-certified, no deposit and no change orders. Expect $10,000 to $22,000 for most homes in town.
The Riverside houses we work on.
Housing here dates to 1950 at the median, across roughly 3,298 units. Roughly 88% were standing before 1980. Around 42% of homes here predate 1940 entirely.
Walls from these years have no housewrap and almost no insulation, because neither was standard when they went up. The wall assembly gets rebuilt properly in the process, which is worth more than the new color.
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 57% in Riverside, 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.
Local conditions we build for
Riverside sits in Burlington County — the state's largest county by area, reaching from close-in suburbs out into the Pine Barrens. The pines around Riverside are the condition that matters most here. Pitch pine drops needles year-round rather than leaves once in autumn. Needles pack into valleys and gutters, hold moisture against the shingle, and stay there. Shaded walls under pine cover stay damp and grow mildew on the north and east elevations.

“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 Riverside 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 1950 and 88% of the stock built before 1980, Riverside 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.
You do, and we take care of it. Permits for a siding come from the Riverside construction office under the state Uniform Construction Code, and we pull the permit, schedule the inspection and meet the inspector ourselves.
It changes what we look for. With roughly 88% of Riverside housing predating 1980, plank decking, stacked layers and improvised flashing are all common — so the inspection covers them and the written estimate reflects whatever is actually there.
One to three days for a typical house here. Riverside is about 37 miles from our Manalapan base, well inside the area our crews cover daily.
