Why Siding Repairs Are Important
Siding is the last layer of defense in your home’s building envelope system. Your siding protects your moisture barrier, flashing, and other waterproofing components.
In short, it keeps the water out so it can’t cause the inner components to rot. SFW Construction performs targeted siding repairs designed to prolong the life of the outer layer of your home.
Neglecting Siding Repairs Can Result In Dry Rot
The Pacific Northwest has a wet climate, and it is critical to keep all that moisture out of your home. If water can move past your building envelope, it can lead to other issues; such as mold and mildew, dry rot, and structural damage.
Siding defects and damages can be a direct path to moisture intrusion. Siding repairs need to be taken care of as soon as possible by a qualified, experienced siding repair contractor who is qualified and experienced properly executing a targeted repair.
