Spring is approaching… and now is the best time to check your siding for winter damage.
regular maintenance and eventually will need to be replaced. Here are three clear signs your siding needs immediate attention:

1 - Increased Cooling and/or Heating Bills

There are many reasons for suddenly higher energy bills, and the first inspection should take place on your roof or in your attic. But if you can rule out those two areas, siding could be the culprit.

2 – Inside the Home: Loose Wallpaper / Peeling Paint

While not immediately obvious, loose wallpaper and peeling paint are both signs that your siding is faulty. With poor siding, moisture can seep underneath the outer layer, where it percolates your wallboard.

3 – Warped or Rotted Siding

With a screwdriver, poke under siding that appears warped to see if the underlayer is still solid. If the underlayer feels soft or it has started to rot, you have found a definite indicator that your siding must be replaced.
