If your Connecticut home was built before the 1980s, there’s a good chance it still has asbestos siding. Back in the day, it was seen as a miracle material – strong, fireproof, and nearly indestructible. But times have changed. Now we know that asbestos fibers can be dangerous when the material starts to age, crack, or crumble.
At Superior Remodelers, we’ve helped countless homeowners in Hartford, Stamford, Newtown, and Norwalk, replace outdated asbestos siding with beautiful, safe, and durable James Hardie fiber cement siding – and the difference is night and day.
As long as asbestos siding is intact, it’s not necessarily a hazard. The problem starts when weather, age, or home repairs cause it to deteriorate – releasing microscopic fibers that can harm your health.
Here are a few signs your siding is due for replacement:
⨁ Cracked or crumbling shingles
⨁ Faded or chalky surface
⨁ Difficulty finding matching replacements
⨁ Plans to renovate or sell your home
Replacing asbestos siding isn’t just about safety. It’s about protecting your family, improving energy efficiency, and giving your home a major curb appeal boost.
At Superior Remodelers, we partner with licensed asbestos abatement teams to handle the safe removal and disposal of old siding before we start your new installation. You won’t have to coordinate multiple contractors – we manage the entire process for you, from inspection to the final clean-up.
