Five Signs That It’s Time to Replace Your Home’s Vinyl Siding
Old, worn down, and/or damaged vinyl siding can drag down the overall appeal of your home. Should you find yourself in this position, it’s time to replace your old vinyl siding with something that’s brand new.
Here are five signs that it’s time to replace your home’s vinyl siding:
- Holes or dents: Any type of damage makes it easier for water, insects, and debris to make its way behind your siding.
- Cracked siding: Over time, vinyl siding can crack. Once again, this lets moisture and insects breach the siding, thus putting your home at risk of damage.
- Dry rot: Everything looks good on the surface, but the wood behind your siding is rotting. This is a result of moisture.
- Faded color: Faded vinyl siding is anything but attractive. Fortunately, with so many colors to choose from, your new siding will give your home the look you’re going for.
- Mold, fungus, or mildew: All three of these things are a result of excessive moisture. Sometimes a good cleaning is all it takes. Other times, replacing your siding is the best approach.
If you notice one or more of these signs that it’s time to replace your home’s vinyl siding, don’t hesitate to take action. You’ll be glad that you did once the project is complete.
