Hear from Our Customers
Your home stops taking a beating from Long Island weather. No more worrying about water damage, rot, or energy bills that climb every season because your exterior isn’t doing its job.
Quality vinyl siding creates a barrier that actually works. Your heating and cooling costs drop because insulated options keep indoor temperatures consistent. Your property value increases – vinyl siding replacement delivers an 80% return on investment.
You get decades of protection without the constant maintenance headaches of other materials. No painting every few years, no worrying about insect damage or storm impact. Just reliable performance that handles everything Suffolk County weather throws at it.
SkyLuxe Construction isn’t new to Suffolk County exterior challenges. We’ve handled decades of coastal weather, from harsh winters near the water to summer storms that test every home’s defenses.
Our family-owned approach means owner Al personally oversees every project. No disappearing after the contract is signed – you get hands-on attention from start to finish with a 30-year guarantee backing the work.
West Hills homeowners choose us because we understand local conditions. We know which materials perform best against Long Island weather and how to install them properly for lasting results.
First, we assess your current siding and underlying structure. Any moisture issues, structural problems, or damage get addressed before new siding goes up – no shortcuts that cause problems later.
Next comes proper preparation. Weather-resistant barriers go in, flashing gets installed around windows and doors, and starter strips are positioned correctly. These details matter because they prevent water infiltration that ruins installations.
Installation follows manufacturer specifications with proper fastening techniques. Panels get positioned with expansion gaps, nails go in the center of slots with correct spacing, and each piece locks securely with the one below it. The result is siding that moves naturally with temperature changes without buckling or pulling loose.

You get multiple siding style options – horizontal clapboard, vertical panels, or insulated varieties that boost energy efficiency. Colors and textures range from smooth finishes to wood-grain patterns that look authentic without wood’s maintenance requirements.
Installation includes all necessary trim work, J-channels around windows and doors, corner posts, and soffit/fascia coordination. Every detail gets handled so your exterior looks finished and functions properly.
West Hills homes face unique challenges from coastal weather patterns. Your installation accounts for local wind loads, moisture conditions, and temperature fluctuations. Materials get selected and installed to handle Suffolk County’s specific environmental demands, not generic conditions that don’t match your reality.
Vinyl siding installation typically costs $4-12 per square foot installed, with most West Hills homeowners paying $13,000-25,000 for complete home projects. The exact cost depends on your home’s size, current siding condition, and material choices.
Insulated vinyl siding costs more upfront but reduces energy bills long-term. Standard vinyl offers excellent value for most applications. Removal of existing siding, repairs to underlying structure, and trim work affect total project cost.
Get accurate pricing with an on-site assessment. Variables like home height, architectural details, and access challenges influence labor time and material requirements. Free estimates let you understand exact costs before committing to work.
Most residential vinyl siding installations complete within 1-2 weeks for standard-sized homes. Timeline depends on home size, weather conditions, and complexity of architectural features.
Preparation work happens first – removing old siding, addressing structural issues, installing weather barriers. This phase takes 1-3 days depending on existing conditions. Actual siding installation follows, with experienced crews covering significant square footage daily.
Weather delays installation since moisture compromises adhesion and proper fastening. Spring and summer offer optimal conditions, though we work year-round when temperatures allow. We provide realistic timelines based on your specific project scope.
Insulated vinyl siding performs exceptionally well in Suffolk County’s variable climate. The foam backing provides extra energy efficiency and structural stability against temperature fluctuations common near Long Island’s coast.
Horizontal clapboard siding offers proven performance and classic appearance. Proper installation with correct expansion gaps handles freeze-thaw cycles without buckling. Thicker panels (0.050+ inches) provide superior durability against wind and impact damage.
Color selection matters for longevity. Lighter colors resist fading from intense summer sun, while quality vinyl formulations maintain appearance for decades. We recommend specific products based on your home’s exposure and local weather patterns.
Vinyl siding can be installed over existing materials if the underlying structure is sound and properly prepared. This approach saves removal costs and disposal fees while providing good results in many situations.
Existing siding must be firmly attached, level, and free from moisture damage or structural issues. Wood, aluminum, or previous vinyl in good condition often works as a substrate. Brick, stucco, or severely damaged materials typically require removal.
Professional assessment determines feasibility. We check for proper fastening points, moisture barriers, and structural integrity. Installing over unsuitable existing siding creates problems that cost more to fix than proper preparation upfront.
Vinyl siding requires minimal maintenance compared to other exterior materials. Annual washing with mild detergent and water removes dirt, pollen, and environmental buildup that affects appearance.
Inspect siding annually for loose panels, damaged sections, or caulk deterioration around windows and doors. Address minor issues promptly to prevent water infiltration or larger problems. Check that gutters drain properly to avoid water running down siding surfaces.
Avoid power washing at high pressure or steep angles that force water behind panels. Don’t use abrasive cleaners or tools that scratch vinyl surfaces. We handle repairs when needed – attempting DIY fixes often creates bigger problems.
Professional vinyl siding installation includes both material and labor warranties. Manufacturer warranties typically cover material defects for 20-50 years depending on product quality and brand selection.
Labor warranties vary by contractor but should cover installation defects for several years minimum. We offer comprehensive warranties that address both workmanship and material performance issues.
Warranty coverage requires proper maintenance and excludes damage from extreme weather events, accidents, or homeowner modifications. Keep installation documentation and follow manufacturer care instructions to maintain warranty protection. We honor warranties without hassle when legitimate issues arise.
