Siding.
Is your home beginning to show wear, need repairs, paint or is it just looking tired? Then siding is just what you need. New Vinyl siding can dramatically change your home's appearance.
Vinyl siding is very dependable, looks great and requires very little maintenance. It is made from a PVC plastic material. Unlike wood or cedar it will not rot or flake. Vinyl is less expensive to purchase and install than most other siding material. There are a variety of styles to choose from including the rustic appeal of cedar shakes, hand split cedar, clapboard and the classic looks of real wood. There are many styles and colors to fit your lifestyle. Precision Home Designers is an authorised dealer for Mastic Siding and Mastic Trim product.
f you already have siding and it is showing signs of failure then it should be replaced before it causes structural damage. Is the failure because of age? If age is not the reason for failure it is very important to determine the cause of the failure and make the necessary repairs. If animals and trees are not the problem then moisture is most likely the cause.
You can expect it to take two weeks or more depending on ths size of the structure and the amount of repairs that has to be done. This time includes removal, prep, time to add insulation, and the install of the new siding, and any last modifications such as painting or trim work. While you are replacing the siding don't miss the opportunity to upgrade your insulation.
Maintenance
Vinyl siding is designed to be left alone, but if a piece of siding happens to come loose, you need to fix it soon. If it is allowed to flap in the wind, get bent, or curved into a different shape then it won't go back on and will need to be replaced. Also, your siding will just get dirty from blowing wind and the elements and a good washing once a year will restore that great look.
