Your local siding contractor in Reading
Waterfront Construction is a trusted siding contractor serving Reading, Massachusetts and the surrounding region. Working from our Northborough base, we're fully licensed, insured and owner-led — known for treating every Reading home like our own: on time, on budget, and done right the first time.
Reading is in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, established in 1644 and home to roughly 25,500 people. That makes it one of the oldest communities in the state, so the older streets carry genuine antique stock — post-and-beam frames, hand-cut joinery, plaster over lath, and additions layered on across three centuries. For a contractor that makes it a mid-sized town with a genuinely varied housing stock, from the oldest streets to recent construction. It sits in Greater Boston. It is about 40 miles from our Northborough shop — about 45 minutes to an hour in normal traffic. Being close keeps estimates and site visits quick.
We treat your Reading home the way we'd want our own treated: clean job sites, clear daily communication, and respect for your time and property. When the siding project wraps, the only thing we leave behind is work you'll be proud to show off.
You're allowed to change your mind. Scope shifts on plenty of Reading projects once walls are open or samples are on site, and we re-price it in writing before anything proceeds — never quietly added to the final bill.

Siding replacement is not on the Massachusetts exemption list.
780 CMR’s exempt-work list covers finish work like painting and tiling, and small unattached decks — it does not exempt re-siding a house. Expect a building permit, and expect the inspector to care about the weather barrier and any rot repair found during tear-off. We handle the filing and the inspection.
For siding work in the Town of Reading, the filing goes to Reading's building department. As a Massachusetts Registered Home Improvement Contractor (HIC #196540) we pull the permit in our name, book the inspections and meet the inspector on site — you never have to take a day off for it. Requirements do change, so we confirm the current position with Reading's office before any work starts.
