Siding & Exterior in Conroe and the Greater Houston Area
Your home's exterior is its armor and its first impression, and in our climate it takes a beating from sun, humidity, and storms. Palacios Construction Group handles siding, exterior trim, stone veneer, gutters, and the full range of exterior repairs and upgrades for homeowners across Conroe, Willis, the Lake Conroe area, and greater Houston. We protect the home and elevate its look at the same time, as one coordinated project rather than a patchwork of separate trades. When it is doing its job you never think about it, and when it fails it shows up as peeling paint, soft trim, and water stains inside, which is why staying ahead of it pays off.
How Exterior Work Is Priced
Exterior projects are priced by scope, the materials, the size of the home, and how much repair is needed underneath, so a gutter replacement and a full re-side are very different projects. Rather than publish a misleading flat rate, we give you an accurate written quote after we see the home.
Free on-site estimate
We do not charge for estimates. Joel assesses the exterior, identifies what needs repair versus replacement, and gives you a written quote at no cost and no obligation.
What drives the price
The biggest factors are the scope and the materials, full siding replacement versus targeted repair, the size and height of the home, the siding and trim materials you choose, and how much hidden wood rot or structural repair turns up once we open things up. Stone veneer, premium siding, and gutter work each add to the project, and we lay every line out clearly so you can decide what fits your budget. The condition hiding behind the old siding is the biggest unknown, which is exactly why we assess it in person rather than guessing at a price.

Why a quote beats a flat rate
Every home's exterior is different, and the condition underneath the old siding is impossible to price online. A real assessment is the only way to give you a number you can rely on, and we make that part of the free estimate.
How do we compare to a single-trade exterior crew
"Easy to work with, no hidden costs, excellent work. They remodeled my master bath and put new siding on my home, and I plan to use them again."
We replace old, failing siding with durable fiber-cement or engineered-wood, tearing off the old material, repairing any wood rot underneath, and installing a fresh, weather-tight exterior. A dated, weathered house can look essentially new while performing far better in our weather than it ever did.
Why Exteriors Are Built Differently Around Lake Conroe
Our sun, humidity, rain, and storms all shape how a home's exterior should be built and maintained here. These are the realities we work around.
Intense sun and UV
Our relentless sun fades and degrades exterior materials, especially on south and west walls. Quality fiber-cement and engineered-wood siding and the right finishes hold their color and integrity under that UV load far longer than older or builder-grade materials, which is why material choice matters so much on an exterior here. You can often read a home's exposure just by looking at which elevation has weathered first, and we factor that into the materials and finishes we recommend.
Humidity, rot, and pests
Gulf-coast humidity feeds wood rot, mildew, and insects, all of which attack a home's exterior. Fiber-cement and engineered-wood siding resist moisture and pests far better than traditional wood, and sealing the envelope properly keeps humidity from getting behind the siding, where it does the real damage. We build with our humid climate in mind. Choosing materials that simply do not feed rot or termites takes a whole category of future repairs off the table for the homeowner.
Heavy rain and water management
With more than 50 inches of rain a year falling on expansive clay that holds water, drainage is critical. Gutters, downspouts, and proper grading keep rainwater off the siding and away from the foundation, protecting both the exterior and the slab. Poor water management is behind a huge share of the exterior and foundation problems we see. Moving roof water away from the house is one of the cheapest forms of insurance there is against expensive siding, trim, and foundation damage.
Hurricane season and storm damage
Our region has been through Beryl, Harvey, and more, and high winds and flying debris damage siding, trim, and gutters across Montgomery and north Harris counties. We repair and replace storm-damaged exteriors with stronger, better-sealed materials, and we can help coordinate the work around an insurance claim.
Expansive clay and the structure
Our Houston-Black clay moves with the seasons, and that movement can crack brick, separate trim, and stress the exterior. We repair brick, re-seal joints, and address the exterior effects of that movement, and because we also do concrete and structural work, we can deal with the cause rather than just the symptom.
Older homes and tired exteriors
Older homes in Conroe, Montgomery, and Huntsville often have aging wood siding, rotted trim, and failed caulking that let water in. Re-siding with modern materials and repairing the trim and seals brings these homes up to current durability and looks, while respecting their character.
Curb appeal and community standards
The exterior defines a home's street presence, and master-planned communities around Lake Conroe, Walden, and The Woodlands often have guidelines for siding, color, and materials. We help you choose products and finishes that lift your curb appeal and meet community standards, so the upgrade is both beautiful and approved.
