Your home's exterior takes a beating every single day — sun, wind, rain, impact. When siding fails, moisture gets in fast and damage follows. Forge Siding sends licensed Siding crews across Mount Hope, WV to inspect, repair, and replace with zero guesswork.
Forge Siding grew out of a simple frustration: too many Mount Hope homeowners were paying good money for Siding work that failed inside five years. Wrong profiles, wrong fastener gauges, no housewrap — then the callbacks never came. We do it right the first time, using manufacturer-recommended installation methods and materials rated for WV's specific climate demands.
Every estimate is itemized and written down before we ever ask for a signature. You'll see material costs, labor, disposal, and any underlying repair work broken out separately — so you know exactly what you're paying for and why. We've completed thousands of Siding projects across Mount Hope, WV and our callback rate is under two percent. That number matters to us.
Siding doesn't fail overnight — it gives you warning signs first. Catch them early and a repair handles it. Miss them, and you're looking at rot, mold, and structural repairs on top of the siding bill.
Even a small gap at a butt joint or around a window trim is an entry point. Water wicks in, freeze-thaw cycles widen the gap, and the damage compounds every winter.
Panels that bow outward have usually absorbed moisture or were installed without adequate expansion clearance. Warped vinyl or fiber cement can't seal properly at the joints, so the problem accelerates.
Interior peeling close to an outside wall isn't a paint problem — it's a moisture infiltration problem. Your siding is the likely culprit and ignoring it turns a siding job into a drywall and mold job.
A missing panel after a wind event or impact isn't just cosmetic damage. That exposed sheathing is collecting rain until you replace it. This is one repair that can't wait for a convenient schedule.
Compromised siding reduces your wall assembly's thermal performance. If you've noticed climbing heating or cooling costs without an obvious cause, degraded siding — especially if it's letting air infiltrate — is worth investigating.
Extreme fading means UV degradation — the protective surface layer is gone. Chalking on older paint-based systems signals the same. At that stage, the panel is no longer blocking UV penetration to the substrate underneath.
From a single damaged panel to a complete re-side on a large commercial property, we handle the full range of exterior cladding work — and we do it with the same crew standards regardless of job size.
Fiber cement comes in lap, panel, and shingle profiles, and we've installed all three on everything from Cape Cods in historic neighborhoods to large multi-unit builds. Correct installation matters enormously with this material — improper fastening or insufficient clearances void the warranty and cause edge-swell failures. Our lead installers are trained to the spec sheet, not just to what looks right on the jobsite.
Vinyl offers the widest color and profile selection of any cladding material, and with the right thickness and a quality insulated backer option, it performs well across most of Mount Hope, WV. We carry Dutch lap, beaded, board-and-batten, and shake profiles and can match existing siding profiles on partial replacements when the rest of the home is in good condition.
Engineered wood is popular in Mount Hope neighborhoods where the traditional wood look matters architecturally but the maintenance demands of real cedar or pine aren't practical. We install with stainless or hot-dipped galvanized fasteners to prevent iron staining at the nail head — a detail that separates a professional installation from a quick flip job.
Our repair crews use the same material standards as our full-installation teams — no caulking over gaps as a permanent fix, no missing sealant at transitions, no shortcuts on housewrap at the repair perimeter. If there's rot in the sheathing behind the damaged panel, we address it during the repair rather than covering it up.
Commercial and multi-unit projects have different demands — larger panel formats, longer exposure to foot traffic and equipment contact, stricter fire ratings in some occupancy classes, and coordinated scheduling with other trades. Forge Siding handles commercial cladding projects in Mount Hope, WV with full project management: dedicated site supervisor, daily progress reporting, and material delivery coordinated to minimize storage and laydown area on constrained sites.
Soffit ventilation is often compromised during re-siding work when installers don't maintain existing vent openings or fail to add ventilation where it was previously missing. We verify soffit net-free vent area against attic square footage before closing up the overhang — because your roofing contractor will find the problem later if we don't.
Four steps. Each one documented. No surprises at the invoice.
A thorough inspection before we quote means the estimate we hand you is accurate. We check the substrate, the existing housewrap or vapor barrier, window and door flashing, corner and soffit condition — all of it — so there are no hidden surprises once demo starts.
The estimate covers every line item — material, labor, disposal, permit fees if required in your jurisdiction. You pick the product, the profile, and the color with our input on what's going to perform best for your specific wall orientation, climate exposure, and substrate condition.
Your start date is locked at signing. Crew arrives on time, materials are staged and ready, and the site is protected before demo begins. We run a tight job — no leaving panels exposed overnight when rain is in the forecast.
Installation follows manufacturer specs and local building code. When work is complete, the lead installer does a quality check before calling you for the final walkthrough. You inspect every elevation — we go through it with you, address anything that needs attention, and make sure the site is clean and restored before we invoice.
We don't sub out work to unlicensed handymen to cut costs. Every installer on a Forge Siding project is a W-2 employee or licensed sub with verified credentials and completed manufacturer training.
You see the number before you sign — and the invoice matches the estimate. If scope changes come up during demo, we stop work, show you what we found, and get written approval before proceeding. No invoice surprises.
When we book your project, we commit to a start date. No bumping you for a bigger job, no weeks of silence after signing. We operate with enough crew capacity to honor the schedule we gave you.
Old siding demo generates a lot of debris — old panels, nails, housewrap, fasteners. We haul it out daily. Your driveway, lawn, and landscaping are clean at the end of every work day — not just at project completion.
Every Siding project we complete is backed by our written workmanship warranty. If anything we installed fails due to installation error — a panel pulls loose, a trim joint opens, moisture gets in at a transition we sealed — we come back at no charge and fix it. Not a credit, not a partial. Fixed.

We were replacing deteriorated T1-11 on a house we'd bought the year before. Forge Siding walked us through why HardiePlank made more sense than vinyl for our wall orientation and explained the flashing work that needed to happen around the windows before panels went on. Project started on the date they said. Crew cleaned up every afternoon. The job came in within a couple hundred dollars of the estimate.
A storm took out a whole section of vinyl on the east side of our house. I called four contractors — three of them said they'd have to replace the entire elevation because they couldn't match the profile. Forge Siding's estimator sourced a matching panel through their supplier network and did a clean repair. You can't tell where the new material starts. Saved us probably $4,000 compared to a full-side re-do.
The fascia and soffit on our older home were rotting away and we assumed it would be a nightmare project. Forge Siding quoted it alongside the siding replacement so everything was done in one mobilization. The crew found two spots where the rafter tails had started to soften — they showed me photos before touching anything and walked me through the repair options. The whole exterior looks like a different house now.
I had a specific architectural profile I wanted for the gable ends — a shingle exposure pattern — and everyone else told me it was a custom order with a six-week wait. Forge Siding had it in stock through their regional supplier and we started within two weeks of signing. The detail work at the gable peaks is clean and exact. Not every contractor has the skill to do that level of trim work.
Five-star work across the board. The crew showed up when scheduled, worked efficiently, and the lead walked me around the house at the end of each day so I could see progress and raise any questions before the next morning. The final product is outstanding — tight lap lines, perfect miters at the corners, no nail pops. My neighbor has already asked for Forge Siding's contact information.
I needed a quick turnaround on a rental property before a new tenant moved in. Forge Siding fit us in on short notice, did a clean vinyl replacement on two elevations, and the inspection cleared without a single callback item. Responsive, professional, priced fairly. That's all I ask for and they delivered all three.
