Founder & Owner
James Hardie Alliance Select installers. 15-year workmanship warranty. One call, one accountable team.
If you’re searching for siding contractors in Folsom, Modern Construction Group, Inc. is a licensed, bonded, and insured siding contractor serving Folsom and Northern California homeowners with professional siding installation and replacement built for this climate. Folsom is brutal on siding: triple-digit summers bake it, UV bleaches it, winter moisture rots it from behind, and if your home sits anywhere near the foothills, wildfire risk is part of the equation. Old, damaged siding costs you twice: once in curb appeal, again in energy bills and hidden dry rot.
Our experienced professionals fix it once, correctly, with premium exterior siding systems engineered for California conditions, including James Hardie fiber cement and LP SmartSide, with permit handling, financing options, and a 15-year workmanship warranty. Whether you’re comparing materials, pricing, fire-resistant siding, contractor licensing, or what’s involved in a full siding replacement, this page helps Folsom homeowners choose a contractor that protects their home and investment for the long term.

Why Folsom Homeowners Choose Modern Construction Group
A 15-year workmanship warranty. In writing. Transferable.
Most siding contractors warranty their labor for a year, maybe two. We stand behind ours for fifteen, and the warranty follows the house, not just you. If you sell, your buyer inherits the coverage. That is how confident we are in our installation.
James Hardie Alliance Select certification.
Anyone can buy Hardie boards at a supply yard. Only certified contractors install them to the specifications that keep the manufacturer warranty valid. Alliance Select is an exclusive designation from James Hardie, held by a select group of contractors who meet their highest standards for installation expertise and business practices. With James Hardie siding installed on over 5.5 million homes, that certification carries real weight. We are one of them.
Fire-country expertise.
We have completed James Hardie installations in Wildland-Urban Interface areas, including a full WUI-conscious exterior in Auburn. If your home borders open space or foothill terrain, we build to the fire-resistance standards California now demands. Noncombustible siding is not an upgrade anymore. It is how you protect the home you live inside.
Family-owned. One accountable team.
With over 25 years of experience, our family-owned team oversees every project directly, from the first measurement to the final walkthrough. No rotating subcontractor crews. No finger-pointing. One company, one warranty, one phone number that gets answered.
Permits and HOAs, off your plate.
We file Folsom permit applications, and for a Folsom home, siding replacements generally require a permit from the City of Folsom as well, coordinate inspections, and handle HOA architectural review submissions, including color approvals. You approve the design. We handle the paperwork.
0% financing available.
Through our partnership with Synchrony, qualified buyers can finance their project at 0% interest with flexible terms and same-day online approval. Fix your siding now. Pay over time without interest working against you.
Folsom Siding Services Built for Valley Heat and Fire Country
We do not spread ourselves across a dozen trades. We master exterior siding and windows, and that focused service gives our team experience with local building codes and materials, which shows up in every corner cut cleanly and every board fastened to spec across the industry.
James Hardie Fiber Cement Siding Installation
James Hardie fiber cement is the leading siding product choice for Folsom homes: noncombustible, pest-proof, and climate-matched to hot, dry regions through the HardieZone system. We install:
- HardiePlank lap siding for classic horizontal profiles
- HardiePanel vertical siding and board-and-batten looks
- HardieShingle for cedar-style texture without cedar maintenance
- ColorPlus Technology finishes with baked-on color backed by a 15-year finish warranty
Every installation carries James Hardie’s 30-year non-prorated product warranty on top of our 15-year workmanship coverage. Professional new siding installation and close attention to detail help prevent water damage and energy loss. Two warranties. One protected home. With siding installed the right way, James Hardie siding can also help lower energy bills by improving insulation.
LP SmartSide Engineered Wood Siding
Want real wood grain without the rot, pests, and repainting cycle? We install LP SmartSide engineered wood siding and trim, including on manufactured homes, and unlike real wood, wood siding can take paint in virtually any color but still comes with rot and repainting demands. Dry rot can spread quickly when siding problems are not caught early, turning small issues into smaller repairs missed too long. See our LP SmartSide project for the finished product and the finish quality this material delivers.
Full Siding Replacement and Tear-Off
A quality re-side is decided under the surface, before a single new board goes up, especially on older exteriors with panel systems or T-11 siding. Every replacement includes:
- Complete removal and disposal of old siding
- Structural inspection with dry rot identification, including checks at bottom edges and loose sections
- Moisture barrier upgrades before new cladding is installed
- Permits and HOA approvals, handled by us
Failures in panels and T-11 siding often trace back to improper sealing and moisture, which is why some homes need full replacement and others can be handled with siding repair. When patching keeps coming back, it stops making more sense, and replacement becomes the better choice.
Trim, Soffit, and Exterior Finishing
We finish what we start: HardieTrim boards, coordinated soffit systems, precision mitered corners, and custom color matching so your whole exterior reads as one intentional design, not a patchwork.
What Siding Costs in Folsom
Straight answer: expert siding installation in Folsom typically runs $8 to $15 per square foot for materials and professional labor combined. In California, projects valued at $1,000 or more require a licensed contractor. Full James Hardie projects on a typical Folsom home generally start around $15,000, with final pricing driven by home size, tear-off scope, dry rot repairs, and material selection.
Every Modern Construction Group estimate includes:
- Premium siding materials
- Professional installation labor
- Permits and inspections
- Old siding removal and disposal
- Our 15-year workmanship warranty
No hidden fees. No surprise change orders for work we should have caught up front. Your estimate is one of our free estimates, detailed, in writing, and provided as an itemized quote with zero obligation. California also limits the initial down payment for home improvement contracts. Most are completed within 24 to 48 hours.
How to Vet a Siding Contractor in Folsom
Run these five checks on every contractor bidding your project, including us:
- Verify the CSLB license. Every legitimate California contractor holds an active license you can check at cslb.ca.gov. Ours is #1092104.
- Confirm bonding and insurance. Licensed, bonded, and insured status protects you and your property if anything goes wrong, but also verify coverage for workers’ compensation and general liability.
- Check manufacturer certifications. Uncertified installation can void a material warranty. Alliance Select is the James Hardie certification to look for.
- Get the workmanship warranty in writing. Material warranties come from the manufacturer. Labor is on the contractor. Ask for the number of years before you sign anything.
- Compare bids only after matching the scope. Make sure each contractor is pricing the same materials, prep, trim, and installation details. Identical scopes make it easier to identify unusually low bids.
We pass all five, and we would rather you check than take our word for it. Homeowners who verify are homeowners who hire us, especially when abnormally low bids often mean someone plans to cut corners.

Your Siding Gets Worse Every Summer It Waits
Cracked boards let moisture in, and hidden damage behind loose sections can turn a small issue into structural repair on top of a re-side. The cheapest time to fix your siding is now, and the estimate that tells you exactly what it will cost is free.
If your siding project also includes window replacement or window installation, new windows can reduce heat transfer across the entire exterior and help lower energy costs.
