Why Should You Install New Exterior Siding For Your Home?

To Repair Damage – If your siding has chipping, denting, or cracking, it’s time for an upgrade. Hail, Wind, Rain, and Snow can quickly damage the siding of your home. Critters such as woodpeckers and insects can also destroy the outside of your home. If you leave your siding with cracks, chips, or dents, it can lead to water damage and leaks in your home. With new siding that is installed properly, you can ensure that your home is protected from the elements.

Reduce Energy Costs – Believe it or not, having a poorly insulated home or damaged siding can drastically increase your energy costs. While it may be a lot of money upfront, replacing exterior siding and upgrading your home insulation will ultimately save you more money in the long run on energy costs.

Less Maintainance – If you are spending a substantial amount of time restaining or repainting the outside of your home, it’s time for an upgrade. The team at Southeastern Carpentry uses high-quality siding materials to help you reduce outdoor siding maintenance.

Increase Resale Value – Of course, potential homeowners are looking for well-installed, durable exterior siding for their home. Many homeowners are not interested in buying a home with cracked or chipped siding. Replacing siding can increase the resale value of your home and give it a fresh new look.

It’s essential that you have moisture control in the wall cavity to prevent these issues. TYPAR HouseWrap not only defends against the elements during construction but also as an additional water barrier after your siding has been installed. Moisture can still enter the wall cavity from the inside of the home, however, TYPAR allows the wall cavity to breathe so the moisture vapor can escape.
