Siding Built for Shelby's Seasons
Shelby sits in north-central Ohio, where winters bring hard freezes and summers swing back to sticky heat. That kind of temperature swing wears siding down over the years, and it's why Richards Siding builds every installation around materials that can take it.
We Know the Richland County Housing Stock
Shelby has plenty of homes built well before modern siding materials existed, plus newer construction on the edges of town. Whether your house is a century home near downtown or a newer build off Route 61, we know what it needs.
Full-Service Siding Work
Vinyl, fiber cement, wood repair, and full tear-off replacement are all part of what we do. If a section is damaged or the whole exterior needs an update, we can scope it in one visit.
Straightforward Communication
We walk you through the material options, the timeline, and the price before anything starts, so there are no surprises once the crew is on site.
Shelby's Freeze-Thaw Cycle Is Hard on Siding
Ohio winters push temperatures well below freezing, then back into the 40s within days. That cycling makes older siding crack, buckle, and pull away from its fasteners. Add humid summers and open-field wind around Shelby, and poorly installed siding fails years ahead of schedule.
Richards Siding Installs for the Long Haul
We size expansion gaps correctly for Ohio's temperature range and use fasteners rated for wind exposure, so your new siding moves the way it's supposed to instead of cracking, and keeps moisture out where older installations let it in.

Why Shelby Homeowners End Up Calling About Siding
From storm damage to aging materials, these are the most common reasons our Shelby customers reach out.
Freeze-Thaw Cracking
Ohio's swing from freezing nights to warm days causes siding to expand and contract until it cracks at the seams.
Wind Damage
Open fields around Shelby mean less windbreak, and gusts can pry loose panels that weren't fastened tightly enough.
Moisture Behind the Wall
Once water gets past cracked siding, it soaks the sheathing and leads to rot that isn't visible until it's serious.
Faded Panels
Years of direct sun leave older vinyl chalky and uneven in color, especially on south-facing walls.
Rising Energy Bills
Gaps in old, thin siding let conditioned air escape, which shows up as higher heating bills every winter.
Pest Entry Points
Cracked or gapped siding gives insects and small rodents an easy way into the wall cavity.
Dated Exterior
A lot of Shelby's housing stock is older, and updated siding is one of the fastest ways to modernize the look of a whole house.
