Signs your siding needs help
We aren’t looking to scare you into replacing your Houston residential siding, but we do believe it’s necessary for you to know the indicators of failing siding. If it’s merely worn down or slightly chipped, you’re probably just fine leaving it that way for a while. However, keep an eye out for the following indicators of more serious issues:
1. Broken/damaged siding
It’s easy to notice this one right away. Broken siding isn’t just ugly, it’s putting your home at risk of serious damage. This includes leaks, mold, mildew and infestations that can cost a fortune to fix.
2. Mold and Mildew
Unless your siding is built from concrete or brick, you probably have a porous material providing an ideal environment for mold spores to thrive. Mold and mildew require replacement of the surrounding areas as well to keep everyone safe.
3. rot
Rotting does not require mold to occur, but you do need to be sure your siding is unbroken to prevent rot from happening. If you find that your siding is compromised, you must repair and replace the piece.
4. decreased insulation efficacy
If your electric bills have been skyrocketing without any obvious cause, you may want to consider that your siding is impacting your home insulation. It may be allowing air into and out of the home.
