It can be difficult when you go through the process of getting quotes from different siding vendors. You will likely encounter local companies based in Denver along with national companies too.
Depending on the level of damage to your siding, some might recommend a partial siding repair but most will claim a full siding replacement. It can make the process of selecting a company very difficult.
Here are a few tips to help you know if you will need a full replacement or just a partial.
Is the damage to your siding limited to just one area? An example of this might be an object hitting your house like a falling tree or rock where the siding is only damaged in one specific area. The likelihood of a full replacement is low with these types of damage.
Is the damage being caused from years of wear and tear? The damage is likely across the entirety of the home and will likely require a full replacement at that point.
How long has it been since you repaired your siding? Another good way to help you tell the need for a full replacement or repair is how long you have been putting off repairs to cracks and damages to your siding. If you’ve noticed the damage for a while, there is a good possibility that moisture and other elements have snuck behind the siding and caused additional damage that you cannot see from the outside.
Finally, one more factor to your decision around a repair versus replacement might be the stage of homeowner you are currently at. If you are looking to sell your house and the siding is so damaged that it could cause issues during the selling process, it might be time for a full replacement. If you’re comfortable doing a piecemeal set of repairs because you plan to live in your house for a long time, repair might be the option for you.
You can pull all this information together when you are trying to decide on what is the right route to take with your home. It should be noted that you will also want to take an expert’s advice that is able to properly evaluate what your home needs.
