When & Why To Replace Your Siding
Katelyn Lewis • May 31, 2023
How often you need to replace your siding largely depends on the type you have on your home, but some tell-tale signs it may be time to replace it include damaged boards or panels; loose, cracking, fading or peeling siding; high energy bills; and interior wall damage or cracking.
Here are four key reasons why you should replace your siding:
- Bolster your home’s defense. If your siding has begun to rot, crack, ebb, or crumble, then it leaves your home exposed to potential damage, especially from water. Replacing it will therefore better protect your home from outdoor elements.
- Change your home’s look. Boost your home’s curb appeal with fresh siding, whether in the same color or a completely different one than your current siding.
- Increase your home’s value. Replacing your siding can significantly improve your home’s resale value and attract more buyers. In fact, siding replacements yield one of the highest return-on-investment rates of any home improvement project.
- Improve your home’s energy efficiency. Notice any drafts in rooms throughout your home? Sturdy new siding will keep air from free-flowing in and out of your home, making less work for your HVAC unit and lowering your utility bills.
Replacing your siding not only improves your home’s defense against Mother Nature, it also boosts the value of your home by creating a greater curb appeal and refreshing your home’s overall facade.
