Siding in
Lafayette, LA
Residential siding installation and replacement — coordinated with roofing projects for a complete exterior solution.
(337) 408-1089Siding — Lafayette Area
Siding in Acadiana gets installed alongside roofing work most of the time — coordinated tear-off, water-management detailing where the roof meets the wall, and matched flashing at gables and eaves. The Acadiana climate is hard on siding: vinyl warps in direct south sun and subtropical heat, fiber cement holds up better but demands proper rain-screen detailing, and the cumulative hurricane wind cycling drives blow-off failures on improperly nailed installs. Brown's Roofing handles siding as a coordinated exterior project — usually with roofing, sometimes standalone.
What to Expect From Brown's Roofing
- Vinyl, fiber cement (James Hardie / equivalent), and engineered wood siding options matched to property style
- Coordinated installation with roofing work where both are scoped together
- Proper water-management detailing — house wrap, flashing tape at penetrations, rain-screen where needed
- Hurricane-rated installation with manufacturer-spec fastener pattern and depth (130–140 mph design wind zone)
- Color and profile consultation with samples on-site
- Manufacturer warranty registration and written workmanship warranty at completion
When to Call
- When you're scoping an Acadiana re-roof and the siding is also aging
- When existing siding shows blow-off failures, warping, or water intrusion patterns after named-storm events
- When fascia or soffit damage related to gutter or roof-edge failure is also affecting siding
- When you're listing your home and curb appeal needs a coordinated roof-and-siding refresh
- When a storm-damage claim covers both siding and roof

FAQ
Siding FAQ — Lafayette
- If both are aging at similar rates, yes — coordinating saves real money. One mobilization, properly integrated flashing where the roof meets the wall, and a single contractor accountable for the watertight envelope. Doing them separately means duplicated labor and risk that the second trade has to redo the first trade's flashing detail.
- Fiber cement (James Hardie and equivalents) is the durability standard for Acadiana — doesn't warp in heat, doesn't burn, handles humidity well with proper installation, and stands up to tropical wind better than vinyl when fastened correctly. Vinyl is cost-effective but south- and west-facing elevations can warp under sustained subtropical sun, especially darker colors. Engineered wood (LP SmartSide, equivalents) sits between in cost and durability.
- Yes, when the same storm event caused both. Wind events that lift shingles also frequently damage siding — same wind, same documentation discipline. Hail can damage vinyl siding too (cracking, dimpling) though it's less commonly claimed than roof hail. We document both scopes together for the claim, and our adjuster meeting attendance covers both.
- Yes — pre-1940 Saint Streets and Sterling Grove homes often have wood-clad substrates that need careful evaluation before re-siding. Direct over-cladding without addressing the existing wall assembly can trap moisture and accelerate rot. Some districts apply preservation review on certain visible material changes. We assess the existing wall, integrate proper water-management layers, and detail transitions at the original architectural features (windows, soffits, eaves) so the result respects the home's character.
