Siding is responsible for shielding your home from rain, snow, wind, fluctuating temperatures, and pests. When it’s damaged, siding can no longer perform those critical functions. Old and worn-out siding also looks bad.
Replacing the siding can make your house more energy efficient, lower your monthly utility bills, and improve your property’s curb appeal. These are signs your home needs siding replacement.
Visible Damage
After years of exposure to the elements, your siding might be cracked and warped. Sections might be buckling or sagging. Pieces of siding might even be falling off or missing.
You might see less dramatic signs of damage. For example, the color of the siding might have faded over the years. Some areas might have faded more than others.
High Utility and Maintenance Costs
You might have noticed that your utility bills have been rising. If your siding is damaged and worn out, your house is no longer as energy efficient as it used to be. Air leakage can force your furnace to work harder to keep the house warm in the winter and make your air conditioner struggle to keep your home cool in the summer.
You might have been spending more time and money on maintenance recently. If you’ve had to reattach loose siding or have multiple sections replaced, the problems and bills will most likely continue. Replacing your siding now can save you money in the long run.
