What to Expect When You’re Having Your Siding Replaced

If you’re considering a home facelift, don’t overlook the importance of your siding. It’s not just about aesthetic appeal; your siding protects your home from the elements. This blog post will guide you through what to expect when having your siding replaced.

Before Siding Replacement

First, expect a thorough assessment of your current siding condition as professionals will examine any underlying issues. Once the project commences, anticipate the removal of the old siding, followed by the meticulous installation of the new materials, adhering to industry best practices. Depending on the size of your home and whether it is being done simultaneously with other home improvement projects, such as kitchen remodeling, the timeline may vary. Noise and dust should also be anticipated.

Home Preparation

Preparing your house for siding replacement is essential to ensuring a smooth and successful installation process. Take the following steps to minimize the hassle:

• Clear the exterior of your home.
• Remove fragile items from walls and shelves and move furniture away from exterior walls.
• Cover your valuable possessions with protective sheets or plastic wrap.
• Keep children and pets away from the work area during construction to prevent accidents.
• Inform your neighbors about the upcoming siding replacement so they can also prepare for the potential noise or disruptions.

Unexpected Repairs

Sometimes unexpected repairs need to be done before the actual siding replacement can begin. This could include rotten wood replacements, insulation repairs and asbestos removal. Be upfront and honest about the necessary repairs before starting any siding replacement project to ensure you get the best possible outcome for your project.

After Siding Replacement

Once your new siding is in place, taking good care of it is crucial. Schedule regular inspections and proper maintenance to extend its lifespan and keep it looking great.
