Siding does more than make your home look good from the street. It is the primary barrier between your home's structure and everything Alabama throws at it — summer heat, heavy rain, humidity, and the occasional severe storm. When siding is cracked, warped, faded, or pulling away from the wall, it is not just a curb appeal issue. Moisture gets behind it, works into the sheathing, and starts the kind of damage that is far more expensive to address once it takes hold. At Bradco Exteriors, we look at every siding situation honestly — what is failing, why, and what the right replacement material and approach looks like for your specific home.
We install and replace siding across a full range of material options — fiber cement, vinyl, and composite — and we help you understand the real differences between them before you make a decision. Fiber cement siding, including James Hardie products, performs exceptionally well in Alabama's climate. It does not rot, warp, or crack under UV exposure and humidity the way older materials can. Vinyl siding offers a lower upfront cost and still holds up well when installed correctly. Whatever direction fits your home, your budget, and your long-term goals, we give you an honest read on the tradeoffs before any work begins. Our team handles the complete installation — removing old siding, inspecting the sheathing underneath, and installing the new system with correct fastening, sealing, and trim finishing.
Homeowners across Hoover, Homewood, Vestavia Hills, and Bessemer have replaced their siding with Bradco Exteriors and seen the difference it makes — both in how the home looks and how it holds up through the following seasons. If your siding is past its life or showing signs of failure, call (877) 327-4348 and Randy will come out, walk the exterior of your home, and give you a written estimate based on what he actually sees.
Full Siding Replacement – We remove your existing siding completely, inspect the sheathing underneath for moisture damage or rot, and install a new siding system with proper fastening, sealing, and trim finishing from top to bottom.
Fiber Cement Siding Installation – Fiber cement — including James Hardie products — is one of the best performing siding materials available for Alabama's climate. We install it correctly with the fastening patterns and sealing methods the manufacturer requires for long-term performance.
Vinyl Siding Installation – Vinyl siding is a durable, lower-cost option that holds up well when installed correctly. We install vinyl siding with proper overlap, correct fastener placement, and full perimeter sealing so it performs the way it should.
Sheathing Inspection & Repair – Before any new siding goes on, we inspect the wall sheathing for moisture damage, rot, and structural issues. Damaged sheathing gets repaired before installation — because new siding over a compromised wall is a short-term fix.
Siding Trim & Corner Finishing – Corners, window surrounds, door casings, and soffit transitions all need to be finished correctly for the siding system to perform and look right. We handle all trim and finishing work as part of every installation.
Partial Siding Replacement – If only one section of your home's siding is failing, we assess whether a targeted replacement is the right approach and match the new material as closely as possible to your existing siding.
Moisture Barrier & Housewrap Installation – Every full siding replacement includes proper housewrap or moisture barrier installation behind the new siding — the layer that protects your sheathing if the outer siding ever gets compromised.
Sheathing Inspection Before Every Installation – New siding installed over rotted or moisture-damaged sheathing is a problem that will surface again within a few years. We inspect the wall underneath on every job and address any damage before the new system goes on — it is a step that separates a quality installation from a cosmetic one.
Honest Material Recommendation – Fiber cement performs better in Alabama's climate than vinyl in most situations — but it also costs more upfront. We explain the real differences, the long-term tradeoffs, and what actually makes sense for your home and budget. You make the decision with full information.
Complete Installation From Removal to Trim Finish – We handle the entire scope — old siding removal, sheathing inspection and repair, housewrap, new siding installation, and all trim and corner finishing. Nothing is left incomplete or passed off to another contractor.
Written Estimates Before Any Work Starts – You get a detailed written quote covering the full scope before anything is agreed to. The number we give you is the number you pay — no adjustments after the job is underway, no charges that appear at the end.
