Signs Your Siding May Need to Be Replaced

Many types of siding can last for decades without needing to be replaced, including metal, vinyl, fiber cement, and wood shake. However, all siding materials that aren’t stone or brick will need to be replaced eventually.

Signs that you may need to replace your your siding are:

  • Showing Signs Of Moisture Damage
  • Once moisture gets under siding, it can cause rotting, mold, and warping that can affect your home’s safety and energy efficiency. Widespread moisture damage is a sign that your siding needs to be replaced.

  • Damaged In More Than One Area
  • Localized damage can typically be repaired, but if your siding has widespread damage, such as rot, cracks, or mold, new siding installation will likely be a better investment than repairing several large areas.

  • Cracked or Warped
  • Cracked, split, or warped siding can create gaps and holes where moisture and pests can get in, which can compromise the ability of your siding to protect your structure and affect your home’s energy efficiency.

  • Displaying Bubbling Paint
  • If you have painted siding that’s bubbling, this is a sign of moisture or heat damage that could indicate your siding is no longer doing its job of protecting your home.

For some homeowners, their siding may be in relatively good shape, but they are ready to invest in a lower maintenance material or a new color to refresh their property’s curb appeal. Whether you plan to sell your home or stay put, installing new siding on your home can give your property a dramatic update.

Vinyl vs. Wood

Wood siding may last only 10 to 15 years before requiring replacement, while vinyl siding can last 20 years and steel up to 50. Fiber cement siding can last a minimum of 30 years and up to 50 years.

Lifetime Length

Your siding’s lifetime will also depend on your home’s location. For example, houses in areas that get a lot of rain or heat will typically have siding that ages faster, whereas homes in drier, cooler areas may not see as much siding damage
