Hudson Homeowners Have a Local Exterior Contractor They Can Actually Count On
Ward Exterior Works LLC is right in your backyard. Shane Ward serves Hudson WI and the surrounding area with custom decks, siding, windows, doors, and soffit and fascia built for Wisconsin winters.
Serving Hudson and the St Croix River Valley
Hudson sits on the western bluffs above the St Croix River in St Croix County and is one of the most desirable communities in western Wisconsin. The city was platted in 1848 and its historic downtown along Second Street features 19th century commercial architecture alongside modern restaurants and shops that draw visitors from across the region. Hudson's residential neighborhoods range from Victorian era homes near downtown to mid century subdivisions inland to the newer construction developments that have expanded the city significantly over the past 20 years. That growth has created a large inventory of homes built in the 1990s and early 2000s that are now hitting the age where siding, windows, decks, and soffit and fascia need serious attention. The bluff lots and river view properties above the St Croix also create unique opportunities for elevated deck construction that adds significant value to already premium properties. Shane Ward and Ward Exterior Works LLC are a short drive from Hudson in Hammond and serve this market with the same standard of work that built the business at home. Call 715-808-5260.

Hudson Exterior FAQ
Do you actually make it out to Hudson, or is that just a marketing claim?
Hudson's regular territory, not a reach. Shane covers all of Hudson including the downtown neighborhoods, the bluff communities above the river, and the newer developments throughout St Croix County. Call 715-808-5260 to confirm your specific location.
How far are you actually coming from, and does that affect response time?
Shane's based in Hammond, about 20 minutes east of Hudson. He typically responds same day and can get out for an estimate within a day or two of your call, no different from a contractor based in town.
My lot is on a bluff with a serious drop off, can you even build a deck there?
Yes, and it's a specialty, not a special case. Shane assesses the terrain, designs around the specific site conditions, and engineers the deck for the load requirements that bluff and elevated lots demand. Call 715-808-5260 for a free estimate on a bluff or riverfront property.
What's actually going wrong on Hudson homes built in the 90s and early 2000s?
Siding and windows, mostly. That era of construction is hitting the age where original siding starts failing and windows lose their seal, and it's the most common call Shane gets from Hudson homeowners. If your home falls in that build window, it's worth having both checked at the same time.
My deck's right on the river, does that change what it needs to hold up?
Yes. Riverfront and waterfront decks deal with moisture and humidity that inland properties don't, and it changes the material and fastener choices that actually hold up long term. Same goes for siding near the water. Shane builds with those conditions in mind from the start, not as an afterthought.
How long is my house actually going to be a job site?
Most deck builds in Hudson run 3 to 7 days depending on size and complexity. Siding jobs on an average home typically take 2 to 4 days. Shane walks you through a realistic timeline at your free estimate so you're not guessing.
Is Ward Exterior Works actually licensed and insured, or do I just have to take your word for it?
You don't have to take anyone's word for it. Ward Exterior Works LLC is fully licensed and insured to work throughout St. Croix County including Hudson, and Shane carries all required Wisconsin contractor credentials and full liability insurance. Ask for proof at any time before your project starts.
