The Importance of Siding for Your Home
The siding of a house can be viewed as a house’s skin. It makes up the majority of a home’s exterior, providing a house with its general appearance. It is for this reason that faded, damaged, or old siding can greatly depreciate not only the physical appeal of a house, but its value as well. Not to mention that damaged siding, including soffit and fascia, can lead to bigger issues like pest infestation and water damage.
Why Siding is Important & the Benefits of Siding
One trait of a house’s siding that is often overlooked is that it can greatly affect the energy costs of heating and cooling a home. A siding that is thin, has gaps, or is not cut exactly to the shape of a house can lead to a high amount of air leakage. If the hot or cold air is not contained in your house, you will pay much more in energy bills heating or cooling it. With our Cedar Ridge Siding System, you are guaranteed a 20% energy savings for the life of your home. These savings are transferable to every future owner, a value that is hard to ignore.
The siding of your home can also determine how accessible the interior is to pests, such as bugs and rodents. It does not take a significantly sized gap or hole in your siding to invite in a pest looking for a hot meal or warm place to sleep. Given that we actually nail the siding directly to the studs of your home, not just into the layers underneath, we provide you with a sturdy siding that will not slip or create any gaps for the aforementioned pests to find their way into your house. You cool air stays in, and the pests stay out.

Frequently Asked Questions About House Siding
Choosing the best vinyl siding option for your home can be difficult. Because of this, we’ve answered some frequently asked questions to make your decision easier:
Does Siding Increase Home Value?
Yes, siding can increase home value. Quality siding enhances curb appeal and provides insulation, making your home more attractive and energy-efficient, thus positively impacting its market value.
What Happens to a House with No Siding?
A house with no siding is vulnerable to moisture, pests, and weathering. Exposed to the elements, it may experience structural damage, decreased energy efficiency, and a decline in appearance, potentially leading to costly repairs.
How Often Should Siding Be Replaced?
The lifespan varies by material, but generally, siding lasts 20-40 years. Factors like climate and maintenance play a role. Inspect regularly and consider replacement if you notice extensive damage, fading, or excessive wear.
Is it Better to Replace Siding or Paint it?
Replacing siding offers a longer-lasting solution. While painting is a temporary fix that enhances appearance, replacing siding improves insulation, durability, and overall curb appeal, ensuring better long-term value for your home.
