Siding Contractor Software in Maryland

Siding jobs don't fit neatly in generic contractor software. You've got full wraps, partial replacements, color matching trim, and HOAs that take three weeks to approve a sample. ExteriorPro lets you bid by square footage, track what material's going on what elevation, keep the approval paperwork attached to the project, and hand the crew a clean scope on install day. No more rebuilding the estimate from memory because the customer changed the J-channel color.

Whether it's a full wrap in Maryland suburbs or a partial replacement after hail, ExteriorPro keeps the scope, the material by elevation, and the install week on one screen.

From $199/month per location. No credit card required to start.

Humidity and clay are what a siding company in Maryland sells against. The summers are humid enough to rot wood from the bottom course up, and the termites find the damp wood first. The Piedmont clay under Baltimore, Howard, and Montgomery counties splashes up the bottom courses in every rain and stains anything light. Vinyl owns the market on price and on the freeze and thaw. Fiber cement is gaining in Clarksburg, Ellicott City, and Crofton, where the newer houses are brick or stone on the front and siding on the rest, so a lot of the work is partial. A partial job lives or dies on matching what is already there.

Storms put siding on claims. The derecho of June 29, 2012 put trees through walls across the state and left 1.6 million people without power. Isabel soaked everything below the surge line in Baltimore and Annapolis in 2003. Hail cracks vinyl on the north and west walls of the suburbs most springs. Maryland's deductible law reaches every contractor repairing weather damage, not just roofers. Paying or promising to pay any part of a deductible with intent to defraud the insurer is a felony with up to 15 years behind it. A siding company on a hail claim writes the deductible into the contract and collects it.

Maryland licenses home improvement at $500. A siding job takes a license from the Maryland Home Improvement Commission, with an exam and a payment into the Guaranty Fund behind it. The deposit may not exceed one third of the price, and nothing may be collected before the contract is signed. A sale made at the kitchen table carries the Door-to-Door Sales Act's five business days to cancel, or seven for a homeowner 65 or older.

The 2021 codes apply statewide under the Maryland Building Performance Standards, and every county enforces them, so a re-side is inspected. The older frame houses in Baltimore, Hagerstown, and Salisbury are where the full tear-offs are, with hardboard and wood under whatever went over it. The season runs from March into December, and vinyl gets brittle below freezing.

Every trade, one price

Roofing, siding, windows, and gutters are all included at one price per location — so a crew that adds a second trade doesn't change what they pay.
