Signs Your Siding Needs to be Replaced
Your siding should be replaced every 10-20 years depending on the type of siding your home has. Many homeowners will see their siding is faded or fading and think it's time for a full siding replacement - this is not always the case. Often times you’ll just need a siding painter to touch up faded boards. If your siding is cracking, falling off, or rotting, then you should consider a full siding replacement. Some of the most common signs your home is ready for new singing include:
- Cracked, warped, or rotting siding
- Fungus, mildew, or mold on your siding
- Bubbles or blisters in or on your siding
- Detached or dismantled siding boards
- Abnormal increases in energy bills
If you’re noticing some or many of the above signs in your siding, it’s important you contact a professional contractor to inspect the condition of your siding.
