What's Different About Worcester Siding

Triple-decker re-siding requires three-story scaffolding, careful trim work around windows on each floor, and coordination with multiple residents or owners. Historic district properties (West Side, Crown Hill, others) require Worcester Historical Commission review and approved materials - typically cedar or fiber cement profiles that match historical character. Lead paint is universal on pre-1978 Worcester homes - we follow EPA RRP requirements. Insulation upgrades during re-siding are valuable on most older Worcester homes, which typically have inadequate wall insulation.
