Siding Contractors in North Babylon, NY

Siding That Fits North Babylon's Post-War Blocks

North Babylon is almost entirely single-family housing from the 1950s and 60s: capes, ranches, splits and high-ranches set on straight streets between Deer Park Avenue and the Belmont Lake side. A good share still carries aluminum siding or the first round of vinyl, which by now is faded, cracked at the corners or rattling in wind. AP Siding & Windows replaces it with insulated vinyl, vinyl shake, board and batten or fiber cement, and we take care of window replacement and roofing in the same project. Our crews are AP employees, and we send the same people who measured your house.

North Babylon is inland, with no bay exposure, so the weather story here is different from the South Shore hamlets. Tree-lined streets, especially around Belmont Lake State Park and the blocks east of Deer Park Avenue, keep north and east walls shaded and slow to dry, and that is where mildew and green staining show up on siding. We counter it with a proper drainage plane, vented trim, and keeping the bottom course above grade and mulch. On the open streets near Sunrise Highway, sun fade on the south face matters more, and we steer homeowners toward colorfast, thicker panels.

Siding styles we install

Horizontal Vinyl Lap Siding

The classic look for capes, ranches, and colonials. Low maintenance, dozens of colors, and never needs painting.

Cedar & Cedar-Look Shake Siding

The look of cedar shakes without staining, splitting, or rot. Great on a whole home or as gable and dormer accents.

Board & Batten Siding

Vertical siding for farmhouse, modern, and coastal exteriors, often mixed with lap siding for contrast.

Fiber Cement Siding

The premium option: heavy, fire-resistant, and very durable, with a real painted-wood look.

Signs it's time to replace your siding

• Cracked, warped, or loose panels, especially after a storm
• Faded or chalky color that no longer cleans up
• Soft spots, rot, or mildew along seams and trim
• Water stains or peeling paint on interior walls
• Drafty rooms and rising heating and cooling bills

Siding and windows in one project

Replacing windows at the same time as siding is the smartest way to do both. With the old siding off, new windows can be flashed and sealed properly on every side, and all the exterior trim comes out clean and consistent. You get one crew and one schedule for the whole exterior.

North Babylon Neighborhoods

The blocks around Belmont Lake State Park and the Southern State are wooded, with ranches and colonials on slightly larger lots. Between Deer Park Avenue and Little East Neck Road, around North Babylon High School and Phelps Lane, sit tight capes and splits from the 1950s. The streets off August Road and Weeks Road, toward the Deer Park line, are high-ranches from the 1960s. South toward Sunrise Highway and the West Babylon border, the housing turns to ranches and expanded capes. The Town of Babylon offices on Phelps Lane sit right in the middle of it.

Serving All of North Babylon

Our crews cover the entire North Babylon hamlet, from the Southern State down to Sunrise Highway and from the Deer Park line to the West Islip border. We also work the surrounding Town of Babylon hamlets, Babylon Village, and the Town of Islip communities just east.

Frequently asked questions

What is the price range for siding a North Babylon high-ranch?

A high-ranch has tall front and back walls, so it carries more square footage than a cape of the same footprint, and that is the biggest factor. Add the material you choose, whether old aluminum or vinyl must come off, and the window and trim detail. Vinyl is the lowest-cost route and fiber cement the highest. We measure, then give a written price.

Who do I get a siding permit from in North Babylon?

North Babylon is a hamlet, not a village, so the Town of Babylon Building Division issues the permit. Its office is on Phelps Lane, right in North Babylon. We prepare and file the application, submit our license and insurance certificates, and schedule the final inspection. You will not need to take time off to deal with it.

What siding handles the shade and dampness on North Babylon's tree-lined streets?

Shaded walls near Belmont Lake and along the older blocks stay wet longer, so the goal is siding that dries and sheds. Insulated vinyl with a proper drainage wrap behind it works well and resists mildew staining. Fiber cement is another strong choice because it holds paint and does not trap moisture. In both cases we vent the trim and keep siding off the soil.

How long does siding take on a North Babylon cape or split?

Three to five working days is typical for vinyl on an average cape, ranch or split, with our crew on site each day. High-ranches with full-height walls lean toward five. Fiber cement adds time because every board is cut, primed and caulked. Rain can push a day out, and we tell you ahead of time rather than leaving you guessing.

Can new windows go in with the siding on my North Babylon home?

Yes, and we recommend it when the windows are original. Once the old siding comes off, we set replacement windows with their flanges against the sheathing, flash them with tape and tie the housewrap in before the new siding goes on. That is the right sequence to keep water out. It is one Town permit, one crew and one cleanup instead of two separate projects.

My North Babylon house still has aluminum siding. Does that have to come off?

We recommend taking it off. Aluminum from the 1960s often hides fiberboard or rotted sheathing, and leaving it in place means your new siding sits on an uneven surface with trapped moisture. Removing it lets us inspect, replace any bad sheathing, wrap the house and start clean. We haul the aluminum away as part of the job.
