Damage can be caused to any siding material. In some cases, damage is simply cosmetic, but in others, the damage can be much more serious.
Damaged siding may be caused by a simple impact or by a storm ripping an entire panel off. Your home’s siding can also be damaged by hail, falling tree limbs, rocks, sports balls, and other projectiles.
Over time, your siding will fade and peel. Your home’s appearance and the feeling you get when you arrive are affected by damaged siding. As a result, your home’s curb appeal, and therefore its value, can be drastically reduced. Repairing siding can lead to a 55% return on investment if you plan to sell your home soon.
Siding provides protection against moisture, which is a threat to your home’s exterior walls. It is important to address moisture-related damage to wood siding right away if you notice soft rotten boards. Moisture damage to siding can easily spread to your home’s walls and frame. The time to make a small repair is past if you have multiple leaks throughout your house caused by moisture damage to your siding.
