Answers
Clapboard Siding in Framingham — FAQ
Expect roughly 5–10 years between repaints depending on exposure and prep. The single biggest factor is whether the boards were back-primed (sealed on all six sides) before installation — unsealed backs absorb moisture and push the paint off from behind.

Setbacks — Single Residence R-1 to R-4 (front yard is 30 ft in all four)
Front 30 ft. Setbacks are set by zoning district, so confirm which district your lot is in before siting an addition or deck — we check it as part of the estimate.
Framingham has a local historic district
If your home falls inside it, exterior changes — siding, windows, roofing material, additions visible from the street — need Historic District Commission review before the building permit issues. That review adds time, so we file it early rather than discovering it mid-project. Commission details.
