Professional Exterior Remodeling in Darien, CT

Darien's older Colonial- and Cape-style homes experience significant wear and tear from the local climate. Roofing, siding, windows, and decks age together and often need attention at the same time. When the time comes, renovating your home’s exterior doesn’t need to feel like an overwhelming prospect. 

We’re Burr Custom Exteriors, a family-owned exterior remodeling contractor serving Darien, Connecticut, and surrounding Fairfield County since 1969. We can handle the full scope of your home’s exterior needs as a single cohesive project, saving you multiple contractor calls.

What We Do In Darien

Most home exterior issues don’t stand alone. We provide a full suite of services, making it easy for you to address multiple concerns all in one place. Here are the services we offer to transform your home’s exterior from top to bottom:

Siding and Roofing

Your home’s siding and roofing make up the majority of its exterior and serve as the first defense against the elements. We help protect your home with the industry’s most resilient materials, including James Hardie fiber cement, which holds its finish, resists moisture, and suits Darien's architectural character.

Typically, we see residents reach out when an aging roof has run its course or storm damage makes replacement the practical choice. That’s why all roofing projects begin with an assessment of your needs. When necessary, we focus on full roof replacement rather than temporary fixes to protect what matters most. We partner with CertainTeed and VELUX, manufacturers known for long-term durability. 

Decks and Porches

We help you make the most of your home with the perfect outdoor space. For deck projects, our teams utilize TimberTech and AZEK composite products designed to hold up without the refinishing cycles that wood demands in New England's climate. We specialize in new builds or replacement decking.

Our custom porch builds, complete porch replacements, and porticos can provide a safe and welcoming entry to your home. Designs are customized to perfectly express your style and highlight your home’s character.  

Pergolas and Cabanas

Our thoughtfully designed pergolas and cabanas help enhance the style and functionality of your outdoor space.

A pergola brings architectural definition to your patio without fully enclosing it. A cabana is more enclosed, typically positioned near your pool or patio edge, and functions as a destination. 

Windows and Doors

We offer energy-efficient windows from Marvin, known for their made-to-order sizing and both wood and fiberglass-clad construction. Customization is especially useful for older homes that don't conform to standard dimensions.

Therma-Tru door replacements fit naturally into larger exterior projects. Most homeowners include them as part of a broader scope where everything gets refreshed at once.

We simplify the entire process by acting as your single, full-scope contractor, delivering expert guidance and clear communication from start to finish. Here’s what you can expect:

2. Design and Plan: We’ll walk through all material choices and offer design services and 3D renderings to help you visualize the finished project. Then, you’ll receive a comprehensive quote. 

3. Installation: Once convenient timelines are set, our professional crews will manage the entire project. You'll benefit from a single point of contact who will maintain open communication to keep you in the know.

Frequently Asked Questions About Exterior Remodeling in Darien

Do you work on homes throughout Darien, including neighborhoods closer to the water?

Yes, we work on homes throughout Darien, including homes near Long Island Sound. Coastal-adjacent properties have specific material considerations. We lean toward fiber-cement siding and composite decking in those settings because both withstand moisture and humidity without the maintenance demands of wood.

Can Burr handle both the siding and roofing on the same project?

We can. One contractor means one schedule, one point of contact, and consistent oversight across both trades, rather than two companies coordinating around each other. It also aligns design and material decisions from the start.

What siding options do you offer if I want to move away from what's on my house now?

If you're replacing aging or outdated siding, James Hardie fiber cement is what we recommend most often. It's durable, low-maintenance, installs in multiple profiles, and holds a finish well over time. Fiber cement is the most common choice for those replacing vinyl siding.

Do you offer financing for exterior projects in Darien?

Financing is available for qualifying projects.
