Siding that stands up to Northern Michigan winters

Vinyl and fiber cement siding installed tight and clean, plus spot repairs when only part of a wall has taken the damage.

When: Book spring through fall; installs need dry, above-freezing days.

How long: Most full re-siding projects take three to five days.

Why it matters up here

Cracked or warped siding lets water behind the wall where you can't see it, and Northern Michigan's temperature swings make small gaps bigger every season. You feel it as drafts before you see it as rot.

How we do it

  1. We check what's behind the damaged area before quoting, so the price covers the actual problem.

  2. For partial repairs we match profile and color as closely as current products allow and tell you up front how close the match will be.

  3. Full replacements include a weather-resistant barrier and careful flashing around windows and doors.

What’s included

Vinyl siding
Low-maintenance and cost-effective, in a wide range of profiles and colors.
Fiber cement
Heavier, more rigid, and highly resistant to weather and impact.
Spot repairs
Storm, impact, and weather damage fixed without re-siding the whole house.
Weather-tight details
Proper wrap and flashing at every window, door, and corner.

Dark board-and-batten siding on a tall home

    “Best price of 4 estimates”

    Showed up on time, worked steadily, cleaned up when done. Best price of 4 estimates, best gutter guard I have seen. Work looks as expected, excellent job done, to spec. Would recommend you get a quote from Dan.

    “Exactly what working with a contractor should look like”

    The overall experience received from Dan and team is exactly what working with a contractor should look like. Prompt and always on-time, responsive and thoughtful with advisement on options, as well as going above and beyond to ensure the finished project would exceed expectations. Highly recommend a conversation with Leading Edge if you are looking for higher quality materials than others will offer, but at a price point that is more reasonable.

    “Eliminated a water issue near my back door”

    Professional, prompt and attention to detail, Dan was able to eliminate a water issue near my back garage door. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for gutter installation. Thanks, Dan and son.

Siding questions

Don’t see yours? Call or text (231) 715-1838. A real person answers, seven days a week.

How long does siding replacement take?

Most homes take three to five days, depending on size, material, and weather.

What siding do you install?

Vinyl and fiber cement. Vinyl is lighter and lower cost; fiber cement is more rigid and impact-resistant. We'll help you weigh them for your house.

Can you repair just one section?

Yes. Localized damage can usually be repaired. We'll be honest about how closely new panels will match older, faded ones.

Will new siding help with drafts and energy bills?

It can. A new weather-resistant barrier and tight installation reduce air leaks, which you'll feel on windy winter days.

What colors and styles are available?

Lap, dutch lap, board and batten, and shake profiles in a wide range of colors. We'll bring samples to the estimate.
