Owning a home built in the late ‘80s often comes with a unique set of challenges—and opportunities. For one homeowner in Laurel, their single-family home, built in 1988, was showing its age. After living there for four years, they noticed loose siding panels, fading curb appeal, and growing concerns about energy efficiency. The original vinyl siding had reached the end of its lifespan, leaving the homeowner worried about potential moisture intrusion and rising utility costs.
They knew it was time for a change.


A Personalized Consultation and Game Plan
During our consultation, we took a close look at the home’s exterior and uncovered the full picture: outdated siding, insufficient insulation, and trim that had seen better days. Together, we discussed options that would restore the home’s protection and give it a fresh, updated look.
The solution included a full siding replacement with Mastic Quest vinyl siding in a timeless light color, paired with flat foam insulation for better efficiency. We also recommended refreshed trim, soffits, gutters, and shutters to complete the look. By tailoring the project to the homeowner’s budget, we were able to create a plan that delivered both long-term value and a beautiful transformation.

Tackling the Challenges of a 1988 Home
Our team got to work removing the old siding and preparing the home for its new exterior. Like many homes from the late ‘80s, there were challenges—uneven walls and deteriorated wood trim. We replaced the damaged wood, then added flat foam insulation to create a smooth, even base for installation.
The finished project included:
- 21 squares (2,100 sq ft) of Mastic Quest siding in a classic light tone
- Insulated vinyl corners for added strength
- Aluminum-wrapped trim, T3 hidden vent soffits, and new gutters and downspouts for lasting durability
- Fresh vinyl shutters and complete window and door capping for a polished finish
Every detail came together to give this Laurel home a refreshed exterior that looks great and performs even better.
