Siding Installation

SIDING INSTALLATION

Installing siding can be a significant and eye-catching upgrade. Protecting your family and belongings, proper siding also increases your home’s energy efficiency, durability, and curb appeal.

Popular siding materials include stone veneer, fiber cement, clapboard, cedar shingles, engineered wood, and vinyl, which come in a variety of styles. With so many options, the different combinations are practically endless. You’ll have no trouble finding a beautiful blend of colors to compliment your home’s exterior! Even better, many of these options are also maintenance free.

IS SIDING REPLACEMENT WORTH IT

New siding installation is a significant and long-term investment in your home, with up to 80% of the project’s cost recouped in increased market value. While preserving the architectural integrity of the home, it can also reduce energy consumption, muffle outside noise, and, in some states, secure unique tax benefits. Furthermore, there are siding options that offer resistance to weather hazards such as wind and fire. This can reduce the cost of homeowners insurance depending on where you live.

If you are a “green” advocate, vinyl, composite, and cedar are all sustainable residential siding options. Today’s versions of these products contain at least 50-60% recycled products.

Is It Worth It To Replace The Siding?

Siding is a crucial component of a home’s exterior and can be quite costly. However, you can recoup a significant portion of your installation costs in the increased value of your home. According to Remodeling Magazine, new siding adds an average of 76.7 percent of the siding’s cost to the value of your home.

However, this is just an average and the actual value added depends on the type of siding you use, the quality of the material, how it’s installed, and the square foot area of the new siding.

Can You Replace The Siding By Yourself?

As a homeowner, you may be tempted to replace the siding yourself. Although this may seem achievable in some cases, we highly recommend thorough consideration before you start your siding replacement project yourself.

Siding installation requires some expertise, and you may need to contact a professional contractor if you don’t have any experience in the field. Different types of siding require other know-how, materials, and equipment. Be aware that there are some technical nuances you can spoil as a novice.

It would help if you had varied skills and materials (including safety equipment). If you want to ensure your home gets the best benefits and that you will be secure, seek the support of professional siding companies.

What Does Asbestos Siding Look Like?

Asbestos siding was a popular material for exterior home construction in North America, particularly in the 1950s through 1970s. It was primarily used because it was inexpensive and long-lasting, but many people are now aware of the risks associated with asbestos exposure.

How to Identify Asbestos

Asbestos siding can be difficult to distinguish from safer alternatives because it was made to look the same.

However, most homes constructed after 1980 will not have asbestos siding. But if you live in an older home, and suspect that it contains asbestos, take the following steps:

Test Your Siding

The best way to identify asbestos is by sending samples for testing. Because it’s difficult to tell if it’s present with an eye test, this is the only way that you can be 100% certain. In order to get your siding tested for asbestos, you need to send a sample to a qualified laboratory. To remove a piece of siding from your home, you can use a zip tool.

However you can also,

Look for fibers that are “ropey” or “curled” in appearance: This is one of the most common methods of asbestos detection. If you notice this texture, you’re probably dealing with a product containing asbestos.

Check for a company label: It’s not always easy to tell what type of material is being used on your house from the outside, but if you do see a company label, it might say “asbestos” somewhere on it.

Hire a Professional Siding Contractor

If you’re not familiar with this process, you should have a siding contractor inspect your home. They will be able to detect asbestos more easily and collect appropriate samples for testing. And if you need a siding company that you can trust, Volpe Enterprises has your back. Established in 1970, we’ve been the go to siding experts in your area for over 50 years.
