  • Yes. Allied Siding & Roofing is fully licensed and insured to operate throughout Michigan. We are proud to be 1 of only 12 James Hardie Elite Preferred Contractors in the state, a designation that requires rigorous insurance verification and a commitment to professional excellence.

  • Most residential siding and roofing replacements are completed within 3 to 7 business days, depending on the size of your home and weather conditions. We provide a specific project timeline during your initial consultation so you can plan accordingly.

  • No, you do not need to be home for exterior work. Our crews are self-sufficient. We do ask that you keep pets inside and clear your driveway of vehicles to allow our team space to work.

Siding & Exterior

  • James Hardie fiber cement is the industry leader in durability. Unlike vinyl, it is non-combustible (fire-resistant), won't warp or melt, and is engineered specifically for Michigan’s "H5" climate to resist damage from freezing temperatures, snow, and ice.

  • While we specialize in fiber cement, we also offer high-quality vinyl and metal siding options. We help you weigh the pros and cons of each material based on your budget, aesthetic goals, and maintenance preferences.

  • Yes. To ensure the best weather-tight seal (flashing and capping), we recommend replacing windows at the same time as siding. We offer window installation specifically when performed in conjunction with a siding project.

  • Look for signs like warping, cracked boards, frequent "peeling" of paint, or increased energy bills. If you see moisture or mold inside your home, it’s likely time for a replacement. We offer free honest evaluations to help you decide.

  • Absolutely. According to the Remodeling Magazine Cost vs. Value Report, fiber cement siding replacement consistently provides one of the highest Returns on Investment (ROI) for homeowners, often recouping over 75% of the cost upon resale.

  • No, you do not need to be home for exterior work. Our crews are self-sufficient. We do ask that you keep pets inside and clear your driveway of vehicles to allow our team space to work.

Roofing & Decks

  • We are certified installers for top-tier brands like CertainTeed. This allows us to offer extended manufacturer warranties that "standard" contractors cannot provide.

  • Currently, we specialize in sloped residential roofing systems (asphalt shingle) and do not offer flat roof installations.

  • We are certified Trex and TimberTech installers. These composite decking materials are ideal for Michigan homeowners because they require zero staining, won't rot, and resist fading even with heavy UV and snow exposure.
