Can You Replace Just Pieces Of Siding?

Katelyn Lewis • October 25, 2022

If you have a few damaged pieces of siding, you may wonder if you can replace just those pieces or if you have to replace all of the siding.

The quick answer: Yes, you can replace just pieces of your siding.


And if you’d like to pursue that route, you may want to consider contacting a handyman for the project. Replacing a few pieces of siding will help to prevent an entry point for water, and having a licensed professional do the work will eliminate potential self-installation mistakes. We recommend Affordable Exterminators of Midlothian, VA, if you'd like to go that route – their number is 804-744-3835.


However, there are some cons to replacing only a few pieces of siding, which mostly come into play with the age and material of your siding as well as the extent of damage. 


For example, if you have siding that’s at least a few years old, replacing a few pieces in the original color may look vastly different, as over time the sun and weathering fades the color. This is especially true with darker siding colors.


And many homes in Richmond have Masonite siding, a material which is no longer distributed. So if a homeowner wanted to replace only a few rotten or damaged boards, they would have to pick a different material that’s similar to, but not quite the same as, Masonite.


And if you’re experiencing issues with rot or mildew on a section of your siding, replacing a few boards may not stem the issue or prevent the problem from returning. You may consider replacing a whole side of your home, or replacing your home’s siding as a whole to ensure its durability and boost your home’s curb appeal.
