Hawaii requires a state license for siding replacement contractors. Worth a quick check before you sign anything. Look up the license number at the state licensing board. Unlicensed work can void manufacturer warranties and make insurance claims a lot harder.
Hawaii uses the 2021 IECC. If your siding replacement job pulls a permit, the installed product has to meet those efficiency requirements. Make sure your contractor is spec'ing to code before materials get ordered.
HOAs are common in Hawaii, and they can add a step you don't want to skip. Check your CC&Rs before your contractor orders materials. Shingle colors, siding profiles, door styles, specific products. HOAs restrict all of it. Some also require board approval before a permit gets pulled, which can add a few weeks to your timeline. Better to know that upfront than deal with it mid-project.
