Most of Trenton went up while the steel plant on the river was running, so the houses here are largely post-war, and a lot of them are wearing their second or third exterior. We replace siding here with a free inspection first and a 15-year labor warranty on the work.
What We Do in Trenton
Whatever the outside of your Trenton home needs, we handle it and back the work with the same 15-year labor warranty.
Vinyl, wood, and fiberglass, measured twice and ordered to the exact size of your opening.
Entry, patio, and storm doors, set plumb and weatherstripped so they seal and keep sealing.
Panels that interlock and hang loose enough to move with the weather, in a range of colors and profiles.
Local Knowledge
Trenton was not built the way the older river towns were. It filled in fast, in one long stretch, and that shows up in the openings.
Abram Caleb Truax settled the site in 1816, on the high ground along the Detroit River, and put up a sawmill, a church and a store. The place went by Monguago and then Truago before taking the name Trenton in 1847, after a limestone quarried here.
McLouth Steel bought the riverfront land in 1948, poured its first ingots the year after, and ran until 1996. Trenton grew through all of it and its population peaked in 1970. That makes most of the housing post-war, which in practice means the first windows were aluminium or early vinyl, and plenty of them are still in the wall.
A city built across a few decades repeats a handful of house plans down a street, so the openings tend to agree with each other room to room. We still measure every one twice, but there are fewer surprises here than in a town that went up over a century.
Trenton's building department requires a permit to repair, alter or change a building, and it is pulled before a crew begins. It is a fair question for anyone bidding your job: who files that, and when.
Your Local Rep
Kyle Adkins Jr. is our VP of Sales and covers Trenton and the rest of our southern service area. Ask for Kyle by name: Kyle comes out for the free in-home estimate, measures the openings, walks you through the material options, and hands you the full price in writing before anything is ordered. If a question comes up mid-job, Kyle is the person to call, and the phone rings in our Southgate office rather than a national call center.
What Sets Us Apart
When the company that sold you the job is not the company that stands behind it, a warranty call two years later turns into a search for whoever did the work. We do not work that way in Trenton. The 15-year labor warranty comes from us, so there is one company to call.

Our Process
Four steps, one point of contact, and a clean home when we leave.
01
We come to your Trenton home, measure, listen, and give you straight numbers. Or stop by the Southgate showroom and see the options first.
02
The house is measured in full and the siding, trim, and accessories are ordered to it, so installation day has no surprises.
03
The crew protects your landscaping and everything underfoot, hangs the siding, and hauls away the old materials.
04
We walk the finished job with you and register your 15-year labor warranty before we leave.
Warranty
15
Years Warranty
Every installation is backed by our industry-leading 15-year labor warranty, on top of the manufacturer's coverage on the siding itself. If the workmanship ever needs attention, one call and we make it right, at no cost to you.
180 Month
2
Years Warranty
Most siding companies stand behind their installation for only a year or two. Once that coverage runs out, drafts, leaks, and seal failures become the homeowner's problem to fix.
24 Month
Questions
Usually, yes. A window from that era is either single-pane aluminium or an early vinyl unit, and both are past the life the seal was built for. The frames are often still square, which is in your favour: it means a replacement unit sits into a sound opening rather than into one that has moved.
Our workmanship: the frame set plumb and square, the sealing, and the finished trim. It sits on top of the manufacturer's own warranty on the product, and we register it with you at the final walkthrough before the crew leaves.
The in-home estimate is free and you get the full price in writing before anything is ordered. There is no pressure to sign that day. You can also see full-size windows and doors first at our 4,000 sq. ft. showroom in Southgate.
