You need siding that can handle a Vermont winter and still look great come summer. At Herman Exterior Homes, we install and replace siding on homes all over the Bennington area. We know what works on the historic homes in Old Bennington and what holds up on a newer build out past the bypass. We’ll give you clear, honest advice and install a siding system that stands up to snow, ice, and everything in between.

Bennington winters are no joke. The constant freezing and thawing can pull lesser siding apart, creating gaps for moisture to get in. That’s a recipe for bigger problems down the road. We don’t just hang siding on your wall. We install a complete system, with the right housewrap and flashing, that’s designed to keep water out and stand up to sub-zero temperatures without getting brittle.
You get a home that’s protected, not just covered.
Worried about the cost? We get it. A siding project is a big investment, and you deserve to know exactly what you’re paying for. We provide clear, detailed estimates with no surprises or hidden fees. We’ll walk you through the options—from versatile vinyl to super-durable James Hardie—and help you find the best long-term value for your budget. Our goal is to give you a fair price for a job done right.
Our crews aren't just passing through, we live and work here, too. Our reputation in the Bennington community is on the line with every single job. We understand how our shifting seasons affect a home’s exterior because we deal with it ourselves. You can expect clear communication from start to finish and a crew that respects your property. We install it right the first time, so you don't have to worry about it again.
Bennington winters are no joke, and your siding needs to be just as tough. James Hardie fiber cement is what we trust for homes throughout Southern Vermont because it simply doesn't fail. While wood siding swells and rots from snow melt and vinyl gets brittle in the cold, Hardie Board keeps protecting your home season after season.
The color bakes into the material during manufacturing, so you're not stuck repainting every few years. For Vermont homeowners tired of constant siding maintenance, this is the answer.
Think of this as "set it and forget it" siding. Everlast siding is a thick, solid composite that looks like beautiful painted cedar. The planks are also impervious to water, so unlike wood, they won’t swell, rot, or attract pests. Its best feature for our climate, however, is that the color is baked in all the way through the plank, so if a branch scratches it during a storm, it won’t leave a glaring white mark. It requires almost no maintenance and looks fantastic for decades.
