Leicester sits in Worcester County, about 15 miles from our Northborough shop, and about 49 miles from the coast. That puts a clapboard siding job here inside our normal working radius, so the crew arrives with the right materials on the first morning instead of making a supply run mid-job. We also work regularly in Spencer, Paxton, Auburn, so the drive is routine rather than an excursion.
Up in the higher interior the winter is simply longer and heavier. More snow sits against the lower courses, the freeze-thaw season runs weeks longer at both ends, and drifting piles hold meltwater against the wall — so the bottom two feet of an exterior take punishment the rest of the wall never sees. Leicester is 15 miles out from the shop and well into that higher ground, so we schedule its winter work around the snow rather than through it. That is exactly why we help Leicester, MA homeowners choose clapboard siding that stands up to it.
The housing stock across Worcester County runs to dense older housing around the former mill villages and a looser mix of mid-century single-families beyond it. Between Spencer, Paxton and Leicester itself we see that whole range in a single working week, which is why a clapboard siding quote here starts with a survey of the wall rather than a price per square.
Leicester borders Spencer, Paxton, Auburn and Worcester, and we run clapboard siding jobs across all of them from the same shop — so scheduling a Leicester project rarely waits on crew availability.
With an expected lifespan of 25–40 years, clapboard siding is a long-term investment for Leicester homeowners — ideal for historic homes and homeowners who want authentic New England character. Owner Ezequias Lobo personally oversees every job since 2007. Explore our clapboard siding across Massachusetts, or pair it with vinyl siding and hardie plank.
