4 Things to Know About Siding Replacement

A project as major as a siding remodel requires advance planning. If you’re thinking about replacing your home siding, here are four things you need to know first.

What are the Benefits of Siding Replacement?

While siding replacement isn’t as glamorous as a bathroom remodel, it offers a lot of practical benefits. Siding adds value by protecting your home and boosting its curb appeal. Fresh siding is also easier to keep clean than old siding, so you’ll spend less time on maintenance.

When is it Time?

Your siding protects your home, so if it’s damaged, your home can develop serious problems, including rot and mold.

If your siding develops mold or mildew, it’s a good idea to get it checked out. This could be an indicator of something more serious. When the siding starts to warp, or develops dry rot, it’s time to replace it.

Contractors typically recommend replacing the siding on your whole home, rather than replacing a few sections that have become damaged.

Which Material is Right?

In general, you should select siding that maintains or improves your home’s value over siding that lowers the value of your home. Look to the houses around you to determine what materials are commonly used in your neighborhood, then make sure those materials are built to withstand the climate highs and lows.

If you’re seeking something low maintenance, vinyl or plywood siding are practical. Wood siding is a classic option, although it does require more maintenance.

Once you understand the options, get several quotes to see how much siding installation will cost.

Choosing a Color

Once you’ve selected a material, it’s time to choose a color. Light or dark colors work equally well in the Cincinnati area, so pick something you’ll enjoy. If you’re planning other exterior home upgrades down the road, make sure the color you select will work with your planned maintenance.
