Restoring a Tudor-Style Home with Full Siding and Trim Renovation in Gaithersburg
Location: Gaithersburg, MD
Renovations: Siding Replacement; Trim Replacement; Capping; Gutter Installation
When the homeowners reached out, their 35-year-old Tudor-style home was showing clear signs of age. The original siding had weathered over decades, and extensive wood rot had formed around the garage doors, entry doors, eaves, and rakes.
Their 50–60 original vinyl windows from the 1990s were inefficient, drafty, and no longer supporting the comfort of the home. The existing gutter system also wasn’t protecting the property the way it should.
The family wanted modern performance and durability without losing the architectural character that made their home unique, which required a careful balance of restoration and renovation – a task the experts at Presidential Exteriors are more than prepared to handle.
A Consultation Centered on Their Home’s Style and Long-Term Goals
We began with a thorough inspection to identify areas needing immediate repair and to understand the homeowners’ priorities. They wanted better performance while keeping their architectural details intact.
We reviewed material options, timelines, and budget considerations, and spent time coordinating colors to ensure the siding, trim, and gutters would look cohesive. A detailed pre-installation meeting helped them feel fully prepared for the work ahead.
Why They Chose Presidential Exteriors
The homeowners appreciated that we approached their Tudor features with care rather than suggesting shortcuts. We explained how durable materials could restore their home without altering the details they valued. Our transparent process, thoughtful design guidance, and willingness to walk through every step gave them confidence in moving forward.
Strengthening the Home With New Siding, Trim, and Gutter Protection
We replaced the aging siding with premium fiber cement in a light, classic color and rebuilt all Tudor-style trim using durable composite materials. Before installing anything new, we repaired deteriorated wood around doors, eaves, and rakes to create a solid base.
The roofline received fresh capping, ventilated soffit, and new trim, and we installed a complete gutter system with leaf protection to improve drainage. Garage and entry door trim was updated carefully to maintain the home’s character, and all materials were matched for a cohesive exterior.
Solving Rot Damage and Preserving Architectural Details
A significant challenge was the amount of hidden wood rot uncovered during installation. Our team removed all compromised materials and replaced them with treated wood to ensure long-term stability.
The Tudor features around the bay window and garage doors required precision, and we worked carefully to preserve their shape and depth. Consistent communication kept the project aligned with the homeowners’ expectations and ensured there were no surprises along the way.
A Strengthened Home with Timeless Tudor Style
The completed renovation brought the home’s character back to life with modern durability and cleaner lines. With new siding, composite trim, improved ventilation, and a protected roofline, the homeowners now have a low-maintenance exterior built to withstand the coming decades.
