Ready to swap out dented aluminum, brittle vinyl, or chipped transite siding before the next Overland hail storm hits? Give us a call at (314) 618-8888, and we’ll walk your elevations in person. Your written quote lands the same day.
Roughly two-thirds of the homes in Overland were built between 1940 and 1969, and most still wear original aluminum panels, chalky old vinyl, or brittle asbestos-cement siding that took a beating from the May 16, 2025 hail across north St. Louis County. If your walls are dented, cracked around the gables, or leaking behind chipped transite, LP SmartSide siding gives you an engineered-wood answer at a friendlier price than premium fiber cement. As Top Quality Exteriors, we install it every week on post-war capes and ranches off Woodson Road.
LP SmartSide is a treated engineered-wood product, so it stands up to hail impact far better than aged vinyl and won’t crack the way transite shingles do when a ladder brushes past. The deep grain reads like real cedar lap on a Woodson Road cape, and the pre-primed boards accept factory or field paint in almost any color, so your dormers, gables, and fascia can finally match. We tie it into the water table, corner posts, and window trim as one system, and pair it with new insulated siding in Overland where the 1950s framing has no wall insulation at all.
Overland sits square in the metro’s hail corridor, with three to five significant hail events in a typical year and storms tracking in from the southwest — so your west and south walls take the worst of it. LP SmartSide is a treated engineered strand board bonded with zinc borate, primed at the mill, and tested to a Class 4 impact rating, which is why it holds up to the hail that dents aluminum and shatters chalky old vinyl on 1950s ranches. On a 60- to 70-year-old cape, we usually strip the old wrap, verify the sheathing behind the water table and dormer flashings, replace any rotted 1x board where the eaves have leaked, and install new house wrap before the first plank goes on. Fasteners go into studs on layout, butt joints are flashed, and trim is mitered rather than caulk-jammed — the same standards we bring to jobs in Charlack, St. Ann, and Woodson Terrace. If your project also calls for James Hardie siding in Overland on a gable or bay wall, we can blend the two on one elevation.
Every LP SmartSide job in Overland runs on the same five-step playbook, whether you’re re-siding a small ranch off Lackland Road or a two-story cape near Wild Acres Park. Here’s exactly what to expect from first phone call to punch-list.
I meet you at the house, check every elevation for hail, and map out where the siding has failed. You’ll get honest options on the spot. The estimate is written that same day.
You choose the LP SmartSide profile, color, and trim package. We bring real samples so you can hold them against your brick or gable. Nothing ships until you sign off on the order.
We pull the Overland permit through Building and Code Enforcement. Boards get staged tight to the site so your yard stays usable. Dumpster, protection, and layout hit day zero.
We strip old aluminum, vinyl, or transite to sheathing, patch any 1x board rot, and hang new house wrap. LP SmartSide planks are nailed to studs on layout. Butt joints get flashed.
We walk elevations with you, magnet-sweep for nails, and haul debris the same day. You get workmanship warranty paperwork plus the LP coverage. A follow-up call closes the job.
Top Quality Exteriors LLC was founded in 2022, and ownership carries over seven years of field experience installing lap, panel, and fiber-cement systems on north St. Louis County homes just like yours. We are BBB Accredited with an A+ rating, licensed in Missouri and Illinois, and we carry general liability plus workers’ compensation on every job we hang. That coverage matters when a crew is running ladders around a cape’s tight dormers and fragile old soffit boards.
Our foremen have installed LP SmartSide across St. Ann, Woodson Terrace, and Charlack, so we know how the planks behave against 1940s framing that never saw a truly square wall. We’re an Owens Corning Preferred Contractor and a James Hardie Alliance Program member on the roofing and fiber-cement side of the business, and we bring the same crew standard to every fiber cement siding in Overland project when an owner chooses that route.
LP SmartSide typically lands between traditional vinyl and premium fiber cement on the price per installed square foot. On a modest post-war cape or ranch off Woodson Road, the total swings on wall square footage, tear-off condition, and how much of the water table, corner post, and window trim package you replace. Modest footprints keep the total project cost friendlier than the sprawling west-county subdivisions, which is one big reason volume works in Overland.
We write a line-item quote so you can see what the strand board planks cost, what the trim system runs, and what the tear-off plus disposal add. Hearth and GreenSky financing options turn one lump payment into a manageable monthly figure, which matters when hail arrived ahead of a homeowner’s budget cycle. Every job carries our 36-month workmanship warranty on the labor, plus LP’s own manufacturer coverage on the boards themselves.
Every credential we carry is a commitment to quality, safety, and your peace of mind — on every project, in every state we serve.
