Clapboard Siding Installation in Massachusetts
Classic New England clapboard siding, done right.
Clapboard is the timeless New England look — horizontal boards that have defined Massachusetts homes for centuries. RS Development Group installs and restores clapboard siding in wood, engineered wood, and fiber cement, with the careful detailing these traditional homes deserve.
A Timeless Look
From historic colonials to modern farmhouses, clapboard delivers a classic, authentic profile. We work in traditional cedar and pine, low-maintenance engineered wood (like LP SmartSide), and James Hardie fiber cement clapboard for the look without the upkeep.
Restoration and Replacement
Many older Massachusetts homes have original clapboard that has been painted dozens of times or has rot in spots. We can restore and repair existing clapboard or replace it entirely, matching the original exposure and profile.
