Known as theMushroom Capital of the World, Kennett Square pairs a beloved, walkablehistoric downtown with newer homes spreading into the surrounding countryside.That mix means siding projects here run the full range, from period-sensitiveupdates on older borough homes to fresh, modern looks on newer construction.Each calls for a different touch, and doing both well takes a contractorcomfortable with older homes and current materials alike. Volpe Enterprises hassided homes of every era across Chester County since 1970, and we bring theright approach to whichever kind of home you own.


On older homesnear downtown, siding has to protect the structure while respecting the home'speriod character, which shapes the materials, profiles, and colors that makesense. On newer homes in the surrounding area, a siding update is a chance torefresh and modernize the exterior. We help homeowners choose the right productfor whichever kind of home they have.
Regardless of ahome's age, the work behind the panels determines the outcome. We check andrepair the sheathing and moisture barrier when the old siding comes off, and weflash every window, door, and transition so water is kept out of the walls forgood.
The finishingdetails matter on both historic and newer homes, including how the trim,corners, and soffits are handled and how cleanly the new siding meets existingmaterials. Those details are what make a project look considered rather thanmerely done.
KennettSquare's older homes make our EPA Lead-Safe certification especially relevant,since original materials may contain lead. We contain and handle themcorrectly, protecting your household and property throughout the work. Everyproject starts with a free estimate and honest guidance.
Seeing sidingat full size makes the decision far easier, whether you are matching thecharacter of a historic downtown home or updating a newer one. A small swatchcan be misleading once the color and profile cover an entire house.
Our Malvernshowroom lets you compare colors, profiles, and trim in person, hold materialsagainst photos of your home, and talk through the options with someone whoworks on homes of every era. We can also walk you through photos of finishedprojects so you know what to expect.
