American Star Contractor Corp (ASC) recently finished a professional siding and gutter replacement project for a homeowner in Hartsdale that enhanced their home’s exterior protection, drainage, energy efficiency and curb appeal. This involved removing old siding materials, fitting a completely new siding system and replacing the old gutters with a water drainage solution that would be long lasting and efficient in terms of performance.
Severe weather conditions to which homes are exposed in Hartsdale and Westchester County occur throughout the year: heavy rain, snow, strong winds, humidity and freeze-thaw cycles. These conditions can lead to cracks and fading of the siding surfaces over time and may cause water to puddle and collect, resulting in structural damage and foundation problems, if the gutters are broken. The aim of this project was to give the homeowner a full exterior upgrade that would help to protect the home from weather damage, and improve the overall look of the property.
Detailed Exterior Inspection and Assessment
Prior to the replacement project, the seasoned staff at American Star Contractor Corp conducted a comprehensive exterior siding, gutter and drainage flow inspection along with the fascia areas, soffits and areas around the home where moisture may be a problem.
As part of the inspection, our team noted that siding panels were damaged, the structure was exposed to weather conditions, there was moisture that had entered the structure, weathered gutter components, and places where water was not flowing away from the structure. If untreated, these problems can eventually cause water infiltration, mold growth, wood rot and damage to the insulation and foundation.
A comprehensive evaluation enables our team to develop a tailored replacement program to enhance exterior durability, waterproofing protection, venting and overall long-term drainage performance.
Removal of Existing Siding and Gutters
We had to take apart the old siding materials and gutter system and dispose of them carefully before installing the new ones! It is crucial to remove outer parts that have suffered damage as this can lead to new components not being installed as they should be or the entire lifespan of the new parts may be reduced by moisture or degraded materials found beneath the surface.
Wall sheathing, trim and structural surfaces were inspected for water damage or deterioration after being removed. A secure and stable foundation for the new siding system was provided by making any necessary repairs before the installation process began.

Hartsdale was the project site for American Star Contractor Corp to install a high quality siding system to enhance weather, insulation and exterior appearance. Tough siding materials were chosen for durability, low maintenance and adaptability to weather conditions in New York.

A new gutter replacement system was installed
A well-designed gutter system is crucial for safeguarding a home against water damage. Rainwater can run over the gutters around the roofline, siding, and foundation if they are damaged or clogged, which can lead to structural problems and basement water leakage.
We installed a brand new gutter system to help ensure proper water drainage and safely away from the property as part of this project. The following parts of the roof were replaced with gutters:
- Cleaning up old gutters and drainage items
- Installation of new seamless gutters
- Properly secure mounting and alignment for water flow.
- Installation of downspouts, drainage improvements.
- Sealing and final inspection waterproof.
A new gutter system is now in place which will improve the drainage efficiency, while also protecting the siding, roofing, landscaping and foundation from water damage.

The entire exterior remodel now offers the homeowner several long-term benefits, including:
