THUNDER PRO CLADDING SYSTEMS
Siding choices dictate structural protection and longevity
We do not treat fiber cement, premium insulated vinyl, and engineered wood as simple cosmetic swaps. They fundamentally alter your home’s flashing, trim strategy, labor requirements, and long-term maintenance cycles.
01Ultimate Durability & Performance
Fiber Cement
Our premier recommendation for homeowners demanding a lifetime cladding package with crisp lines, advanced fire resistance, and unmatched weather defense.
—Engineered for full structural re-clads and long-term asset protection—Flawless architectural look with clean, modern trim contours—Integrates seamlessly with high-performance PVC / AZEK trim systems
02Maximum Efficiency & Value
Insulated Pro-Vinyl
A high-velocity installation with optimized thermal efficiency and a complete weather-barrier reset—far superior to cheap patch-over siding jobs.
—The perfect equilibrium between architectural appeal and budget efficiency—Highly popular for active family homes seeking zero-maintenance solutions—Maximizes energy savings through integrated thermal backing
03Architectural & Premium Styling
Architectural Wood & Board-and-Batten
Tailored for estates requiring a traditional, high-character design or place-specific look that standard production siding cannot replicate.
—Ideal for custom, design-driven residential projects—Rich, authentic depth and character with premium material selection—Sophisticated aesthetic combined with modern weatherproofing techniques
EARLY WARNING
things to consider
01
Warning 01
Soft Substrate Sections
A critical indicator that active moisture has already penetrated past the cladding, threatening the underlying structural framing.
02
Warning 02
Buckled or Dislodged Panels
Wind displacement usually points to incorrect fastening schedules, structural shift, or failing substrate integrity.
03
Warning 03
Caulked-Over Failures
Heavy or messy caulk lines are clear signs of a cheap patch-up job trying to hide flashing failures instead of fixing them.
04
Warning 04
Rot at Corner Posts & Window Heads
The siding is rarely the root issue here; failing drainage planes and lack of flashing are usually compromising the structure.

Hardie vs. vinyl — what's the real difference?
Hardie lasts longer (30+ years), won't burn, holds color better, but costs roughly 40% more installed. Vinyl is faster to install and easier to replace a damaged panel. Both get lifetime warranties now
Do I need new windows with new siding?
Only if the existing ones are failing. But it's the cheapest time to replace them — no extra trim or flashing labor since we're already there. We'll tell you honestly if yours have 10 years left
Can you re-side over existing?
Vinyl yes, Hardie no. We prefer full tear-off either way so we can inspect sheathing, re-wrap, re-flash. About 15% of homes show hidden moisture damage — better to find it now
How long does siding last?
Fiber cement 30-50 years. Insulated vinyl 25-40. Real cedar 20-30 with maintenance. All of our installs carry a 15-year workmanship warranty on top
