Siding Built for Hastings
Richards Siding works on siding across Hastings, PA, Cambria County. Sitting on the Allegheny Plateau, Hastings gets some of the heaviest snow loads and coldest wind chills in Cambria County, and we choose materials and installation methods with that in mind.
Built for Plateau Weather
Hastings sits high enough that snow loads and wind chill hit harder than in the valleys below. We choose fastening and materials with that in mind.
Older Housing Stock
Many Hastings homes date back to the borough's coal-mining years. We've worked on enough of them to know what's usually hiding behind the original siding.
Straightforward Estimates
You get a written number before we touch anything, and it covers the whole job, not just the parts that are easy to see.
What Hastings's Weather Does to Old Siding
Hastings' elevation on the Allegheny Plateau means heavier snow sits against exterior walls longer than it does in lower parts of Cambria County. Combined with the age of a lot of housing here, that moisture works its way into seams and behind panels, and once winter wind gets behind loosened siding it doesn't take long for real damage to show up.
How Richards Siding Fixes It
We install with a fastening pattern and weather barrier suited to sustained wind and snow load, and we check older walls for existing moisture damage before anything new goes up. That's the difference between siding that lasts one winter and siding that lasts twenty.

Serving Hastings Homes and Small Businesses
Hastings is a small borough, and most of the homes here were built decades before today's siding materials existed. We work around that history instead of ignoring it.
Respecting Older Construction
Homes from Hastings' coal-town era often have different framing than newer builds. We adjust our approach accordingly instead of forcing a modern install onto an old wall.
Winter-Ready Scheduling
We plan installs around the plateau's shorter weather windows so your project isn't caught mid-way by an early snow.

Why Hastings Homeowners Replace Siding
These are the reasons we hear most often from Hastings callers.
Snow-Load Damage
Sustained snow against walls can work siding loose at the base over a winter.
Wind-Driven Moisture
Plateau wind pushes rain and melting snow behind loosened seams.
Age-Related Cracking
Original siding on older Hastings homes has often outlived its expected life.
Rot at the Foundation Line
Snow piled against the base of a wall keeps that section wet longer than the rest of the house.
Rising Heating Costs
Older, uninsulated siding is a common source of heat loss during Hastings winters.
Storm Damage
Summer storms on the plateau can bring high winds that crack or dislodge panels.
