Home siding is engineered to last for many years until it begins showing signs of damage. When this happens, you may need to choose between repair and replacement. The right choice can be the one that offers a more cost-effective, longer-lasting option, and this will depend on several factors.
The Age of the Siding
Proper maintenance can extend the siding’s lifespan, but as soon as it reaches its average life expectancy, it will start showing signs of wear and tear. Telling whether it needs to be repaired or replaced depends on how long since it was first installed. Ideally, a siding replacement makes sense if it is approaching the end of its service life. If it is damaged, but still has considerable years left, a quick repair would suffice to bring it back to its peak condition and performance.
The Extent of the Siding Damage
The extent of the damage can oftentimes help you make an easier choice between the two. A few cracks or other minor damage situated in a small area of the siding surface will need repairs. This helps the exterior last longer without costing you too much. Serious damage, especially if it is caused by an intense storm, calls for a full replacement. To be sure, call a reliable storm damage services expert who can assess the damage thoroughly and recommend the best course of action for your siding.
