Siding that fits Rising Sun houses

Trim, soffit, and what we will not cover up
Mixed stock on one call sheet: metal seams on Main Street commercial, lifted shingle rakes on the hillside houses, both taking the same river gusts If the wall behind the siding is soft, we stop and show you. Covering rot is how a siding job becomes a callback.
Color for a Rising Sun wall is chosen in daylight on that street, not from a phone screen in the truck.
Storm and hail damage in Rising Sun
Storm calls in Rising Sun split between Main Street metal and hillside shingles. We photograph wind lift on rakes and any flood-season soffit staining separately from hail, which is less common here than along I-65.
Channel wind can open a ridge without a classic hail bruise. Documentation comes first; dry-in if water is active. Process detail is on the storm damage hub. Read more on our storm damage hub (/storm-damage/).
Gutter replacement and repair in Rising Sun
Hillside Rising Sun roofs dump hard into short gutter runs. Undersized troughs and loose hangers show up before leaf packing does. We re-pitch or replace before guards.
River humidity corrodes older steel faster than inland Clark County stock. Seamless aluminum replacement notes are on the gutter replacement page. See gutter replacement (/gutter-replacement/) for sizing and seamless options.
