The Upper Saddle River houses we work on.
Upper Saddle River counts about 2,817 housing units, and the median one went up in 1971 — through the 1960s and early 1970s. About 58% predate 1980.
These walls have been re-clad once already, and the product used is now forty to sixty years old. The second re-clad is the one where the wall finally gets done properly.
91% of occupied homes in Upper Saddle River are owner-occupied — unusually high, and it shows in the work. People here are deciding about a house they intend to keep, which is why the conversation is normally about the right material rather than the cheapest one. Nearly 85% of the housing stock is detached single-family, so almost every job is a standalone house with its own access. Financing comes up less often here than elsewhere in the state, though it is available either way.
The conditions this work has to survive
Upper Saddle River sits in Bergen County — New Jersey's most populous county, running from the Hudson palisades out to Ramapo foothills. Nothing extreme happens to roofs in this part of the state. What happens instead is water freezing and thawing, night after night. 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 Passaic River and Saddle River holds water longer, which puts more demand on drainage than a drier lot half a mile away.

Straight answers.
Siding in Upper Saddle River typically runs $30,000 to $70,000. 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 58% of the stock built before 1980, Upper Saddle River 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.
