Siding Repair

Any cracks, gaps, or outright holes in your siding are more than just a cosmetic issue. They can let water into the interior of your wall, where it will fester and cause moisture damage issues such as rot, mold, and mildew. This kind of damage not only threatens the structural integrity of the house, it can actually be hazardous to your health and water damage mitigation is very frustrating and costly. Gaps also let in pests such as rats and termites, which can have similar negative effects on the well-being of both your house and your family.

This is something that we could go on and on about. However, the biggest items that we will touch on is the fact that siding protects the interior of your home from the exterior elements. Namely water, which once inside your home will cause issues and costly repairs. Siding repairs do offer the homeowner the ability to return some of the curb appeal and flair to their home.

Are your heating and cooling costs going up even though your usage hasn’t changed? If you notice cool drafts near walls and windows, or coming from light switches and electrical sockets, damage to your siding could be the culprit that’s driving up your energy bill. A professional handyman can help you determine the exact problem, but if it’s related to your cladding, replacing it with energy-efficient, insulated vinyl siding can save you a lot of money in the long run.
