Targeted Siding Repairs Will Save Homeowners Money
Over the years, we’ve received many calls from homeowners who have small siding issues or a dry rot section starting to form that needs to be repaired. The rest of their home is in decent shape, and they’re looking to get a few more years out of the current siding. So, we developed a repair system and coined it, “targeted siding repairs.” Here’s how it works. We come out to the residence, inspect the area for any underline issues, remove the damaged areas, and repair the affected area. Then we integrate new waterproofing and weather resistant-barriers into the repaired area, install new siding material, and paint the siding to match. This system allows homeowners a cost-effective repair option that is a practical and permanent fix.
Targeted Siding Repair -vs- Full Siding Replacement
Unfortunately, some construction contractors use dishonest sales tactics to lead customers into expensive siding replacement projects—when a small siding repair will do the job.
- Targeted Siding Repair
- Water Leaks
- Bird or Animal Damage
- Broken Siding Boards
- Cracked Siding Boards
- Dry Rot
That said, there are times when a siding replacement is a better option. Below are some examples when to search for a full siding replacement contractor:
- Siding Replacement
- Over 50% of the Siding is Damaged
- All Defective Siding
- Siding at the End of its Life
- Material Upgrade (example: vinyl to fiber cement)
- You are Looking for a New Style
A Handyman Is Just A “Temporary Fix”
When dealing with protection from the elements, it is essential to hire a contractor with the experience and skill set to conduct the repair. It permanently fixes the issue and backs the repair with a warranty. A handyman is great for a lot of small repairs around your house. Still, siding damage can affect several different exterior home systems, siding, weather-resistant-barrier, sheathing, and even your home’s structural components. With so much at stake, finding a skilled contractor that leads in the industry in targeted siding repair is step one.
