Look for These Signs If You Need New Siding

Storm Damage

When severe weather hits your area and damages your home’s exteriors, it’s almost certain that you’ll need to get a siding replacement. You won’t think twice about repairing or replacing your siding, after all, especially if parts of it were significantly damaged by the storm. The damage can come from flying debris caused by strong winds or even hailstones, so it’s important to get your home’s exterior inspected for any sign of denting, cracking, and chipping.

Unusually High Utility Bills

Your siding can sometimes cause your HVAC to consume more energy than needed to keep the indoors within comfortable levels. You’ll often not notice this until you notice your monthly energy bills are unusually higher. Of course, there may be other causes behind your increased energy consumption, but you may need a siding contractor to check your home’s exteriors to know for sure. 

Rot, Mold, and Mildew

You may sometimes notice dry rot, mold, or mildew on the seams of your siding. They can compromise your siding’s effectiveness against the weather elements unless addressed properly. Otherwise, your home becomes more exposed to the elements and is more susceptible to deterioration over time. Mold and mildew can also affect your indoor air quality. To avoid this from happening, make sure to have your siding checked by a professional and replaced as soon as possible.
