Ready to see what engineered wood looks like on your Florissant ranch? We will measure every elevation, review your color options in person, and give you a line-item quote with the permit, warranty, and financing terms spelled out plainly.
If you own one of Florissant’s post-war ranch homes along New Halls Ferry Rd or near Old Jamestown, you’ve probably watched the original aluminum dent in hail or seen aging vinyl crack along the south elevation. LP SmartSide siding in Florissant, MO gives those 1950s walls a tougher, more authentic wood look without the price tag of fiber cement. Top Quality Exteriors installs engineered wood siding sized to modest ranch footprints, matched to the Florissant permit process, and backed by financing that works for cost-sensitive north-county owners.
Engineered wood resists the hail that bruises aluminum, holds paint longer than aging vinyl, and carries a deep cedar grain that reads real from the curb. Our Florissant crews pre-prime cut ends, install over a proper weather barrier, and flash every opening so your 1950s ranch wall gets a true moisture-managed system, not just a cosmetic overlay. If budget is the deciding factor between this and fiber cement siding in Florissant, we’ll price both options honestly and let the exterior drive the final choice.
LP SmartSide is engineered strand substrate treated with zinc borate and sealed under a factory-primed overlay, which is why it holds up on the sun-exposed southwest elevations that take the brunt of Florissant hail during storm season. We fasten per the manufacturer’s nailing pattern, maintain the required gap at butt joints, and seal cut ends in the field so moisture never finds the core. On the mid-century ranches off Lindbergh Blvd and the newer builds near Villages at Barrington Downs, we match trim profiles so the install looks native rather than retrofitted, with corner boards and window surrounds sized to the original architecture. The planks come in 16-foot lengths, which cuts seams on long north-county elevations and speeds installation on tight schedules. If you want to pair the exterior with wall insulation, our insulated siding in Florissant page covers the R-value math on un-insulated 1950s framing that is standard here through Hazelwood, Ferguson, and Bridgeton.
Replacing siding on a Florissant ranch is predictable work when the sequence is right. Here is exactly how we move from first phone call to a finished wall, with the permit, the weather barrier, and the final walkthrough spelled out in plain terms.
We meet you at the house, measure every elevation, and photograph the aluminum, vinyl, or wood that is on the wall today. You get a clean line-item quote within one business day.
We bring LP SmartSide prefinished panels and primed-for-paint samples so you can match a Florissant ranch palette. Trim, corner boards, and soffit choices are confirmed here now.
We pull the Florissant building permit, schedule disposal, and tarp landscaping before tear-off. The old aluminum or vinyl comes down one elevation at a time, never a whole house.
Crews install a house wrap, flash every window, and nail planks on the manufacturer pattern. Butt joints get the required gap and cut ends are sealed before the next course lands.
We power-wash the yard clean, pull every nail from the lawn, and walk the finished exterior with you. Final payment follows your sign-off and the workmanship warranty is on paper.
Top Quality Exteriors was founded in 2022 and brings over 7 years of industry experience to every Florissant job. We are a BBB Accredited Business with an A+ rating, licensed in Missouri and Illinois, and carry both general liability and workers’ compensation coverage so your home and our crew are protected during the install. Owner Mario A. Granados runs crews personally, keeping quality consistent on the small ranch footprints that fill north county.
Our team of 52-plus runs multiple siding crews across north St. Louis County, which means a Florissant tear-off can be scheduled inside a reasonable window even during a busy storm season. Every job is backed by our 36-month workmanship warranty, with extended options up to lifetime available on selected product lines so the exterior stays covered long after the final walkthrough. We also offer Hearth and GreenSky financing for qualified homeowners.
LP SmartSide typically lands between vinyl and fiber cement on the quote line. On a typical 1950s Florissant ranch of 1,000 to 1,400 square feet of wall area, that often works out below the James Hardie equivalent while delivering a thicker plank, longer prefinished warranty, and real wood grain depth. The variable that moves the number most on an older north-county home is substrate: rotted wood lap, un-insulated cavities, or soft sheathing adds material and labor.
We quote everything in writing with no surprise change orders, pulling the Florissant permit under our name and handling disposal of the old aluminum, vinyl, or wood. Hail or wind damage from the May 19, 2025 storm or the March 2025 EF2 tornado track through Florissant may be covered by your homeowners policy, and we work directly with adjusters when the claim is legitimate. If you want a premium-tier comparison, our James Hardie siding in Florissant page lays it out.
Every credential we carry is a commitment to quality, safety, and your peace of mind — on every project, in every state we serve.
