8 Vinyl Siding Maintenance Tips for Your Home

Posted on August 17, 2023 | by nwfam

Vinyl siding is a popular choice for homeowners due to its durability, low maintenance requirements, and aesthetic appeal. To keep your vinyl siding looking its best and functioning properly, here are some top maintenance tips to consider:

Regular Cleaning

Periodically clean your vinyl siding to remove dirt, dust, pollen, and other debris. At least once a year, visually inspect the condition of the siding. Work one small section at a time, starting from the bottom and working your way up to prevent streaking. First, rinse the siding with a garden hose using a low-pressure spray. Next, wash the siding using clean water and mild dishwashing soap. Apply the solution with a soft brush, rinsing with a garden hose using a low-pressure spray. Make sure to rinse the soap all the way down to the bottom of the house. Spot clean and rinse the missed areas as needed. For more tips on how to clean your siding properly, click here.

Preventative Measures

To prevent mildew and mold growth, trim any overhanging branches or shrubs near the siding. Adequate sunlight and airflow can help prevent these issues. Siding should be kept free of excessive or constant sources of moisture, such as sprinklers and water runoff from gutters. Keep grills, fire pits, and other heat sources at a safe distance from your vinyl siding to prevent warping or melting.

Inspect for Damage

Regularly inspect your vinyl siding for signs of damage, such as cracks, dents, or loose panels. Address any issues promptly to prevent further damage and maintain the siding’s integrity. If your siding has gaps or cracks, it could let moisture into the walls and affect your home’s ability to control the temperature. When moisture penetration goes untreated, it eventually causes mold and rot, which could even damage the structural integrity of your home. If you are unsure about how to check for potential damage or inspect your siding, please contact New Windows for America.

Painting Restrictions

Most vinyl siding is not designed to be painted, as it is typically manufactured in specific colors. However, chips and small imperfections in the paint finish can be touched up with matching paint.

Proper Ventilation

Ensure that your home’s ventilation systems, such as soffit and roof vents, are functioning correctly. Proper ventilation helps prevent moisture buildup, which can damage your siding and compromise its appearance.

Gutter Maintenance

Keep your gutters clean and free of debris to prevent water overflow, which could damage the siding and lead to mold or mildew growth.

Seasonal Checks

Check your siding before the seasons start to change. Performing thorough inspections before and after extreme weather seasons, such as winter and summer, can help to address any issues that might have arisen due to temperature fluctuations, storms, or other weather-related factors.

Give the Grill Some Distance from Your Home:

Vinyl is durable to the elements, but it can’t withstand the heat from an open flame. Some homeowners will place their grills up against the side of their homes for convenience. Grills in use should be kept at least 10 feet away to avoid melting and warping vinyl siding. Additionally, keep your grill on a stone or brick surface. This safety measure will avoid catching fire to grass or shrubs, which could also damage your siding, or worse cause a full-blown house fire.

By following these maintenance tips, you can help extend the life of your vinyl siding and keep your home looking beautiful for years to come.

Is it Time for New Siding?

It may be time for a siding replacement if you see any signs that your siding is worn – such as warping, cracking, excessive mold, or dry rot. Contact the team at New Windows for America for a free in-home consultation with one of our local siding experts. We can help you find the best option and style for your home, and your budget.

Choose the right siding for your home | New Windows for America

Choosing the Right Siding for Your Home

Posted on June 29, 2023 | by nwfam

Choosing the right siding for your home is an important decision as it not only affects the aesthetic appeal but also provides protection and insulation. The look of new, fresh siding installation can completely transform how your house looks, while also boosting your home’s property value. You will also need to factor in the style of your home, as well as maintenance and durability.

Here are some factors to consider when it comes time to choose the replacement siding for your Denver home.

Durability: Look for siding materials that are durable and can withstand the climate conditions in your area and exposure to the elements. Consider factors like resistance to wind, moisture (rain and snow), impact from outside forces like hail, or maybe the occasional baseball, and pests. LP SmartSide lap siding resists hail damage better than fiber cement and vinyl. In fact, the LP SmartSide warranty covers impacts from hail up to 1.75” in diameter.

Maintenance: Determine how much time and effort you’re willing to invest in maintaining your siding. Some materials require regular painting or sealing, while others are low maintenance and only require occasional cleaning.

Aesthetic Appeal: Choose siding that complements the architectural style of your home and reflects your personal taste. Consider the color, texture, and overall appearance of the siding options available. Your siding is a large part of the aesthetic of your home, so you should make sure it is beautiful to you.

Energy Efficiency: Insulated siding can help improve your home’s energy efficiency by reducing heat loss or gain. Ask any of our team members at New Windows for America about the R-value rating (indicates resistance to heat flow, and the measure of insulation’s ability to resist heat traveling through it). Look for siding materials with good insulation properties to help lower your energy bills.

Cost: Set a budget for your siding project and explore materials that fall within that range. Remember to consider long-term costs, including maintenance and potential repairs.

Environmental Impact: If sustainability is important to you, consider eco-friendly siding options like LP Smartside Trim & Siding. As a consumer, the products you choose have an impact, both positively and negatively, on the environment. Look for materials that are recyclable, made from renewable resources, or have a low carbon footprint. Using sustainable building materials like LP® SmartSide® Trim & Siding can help reduce your carbon footprint so that you can re-side with confidence.

When you are ready to invest in new siding for your home, make sure you consult with a professional siding installer, like New Windows for America. We can help you select the siding product that is most suited for your home and budget. Ask the team at New Windows for America about our special offers and how you can save this summer on your siding installation needs.

When Should You Replace Your Siding

Posted on December 15, 2022 | by nwfam

Siding is your home’s first line of defense against weather and pests; acting like an exterior windbreaker while insulating and protecting your home. When siding starts to fall apart, it becomes quite unsightly and invites pests and moisture leading to larger problems. Replacing your home’s siding may seem like a daunting and large project, but if using the right contractor, and the right products, and depending on how long you live in your home, chances are you probably only have to do it once. Unfortunately, your home’s siding won’t last forever. So how do you know when it is time to replace your siding?

Here are some signs to look for when you think you may need to do a siding replacement.

Excessive Maintenance

Taking care of your Colorado home’s siding will help prolong the life of your siding. Does it seem like you continually must repair spots on your home’s siding? Scheduling an inspection or maintenance check on your siding should be done once or twice a year, while the cleaning and maintenance are left up to the homeowner. This can be quite a time-consuming project, and you may want to consider having a siding that is more low maintenance to make better use of your time with other daily activities.

Extreme Color Fading or Peeling

Curb appeal is important to you and your neighborhood. Once the color on the siding begins to fade it can become quite unsightly. Do you find yourself having to paint your siding more frequently because it is peeling? In Colorado, we have 300+ days of sunshine per year, and that sun can be brutal on our homes. If you had sun-damaged siding and replaced or repainted it several times, and the damage returns quickly, this may mean a structural problem. There are options for sun-resistant vinyl siding, and fiber cement siding available in a variety of colors that don’t require constant maintenance and will retain their color for many years.

Cracks & Gaps

Cracks and gaps can be quite unsightly but can also lead to inviting in moisture or pests. The integrity of the underlying wood structure may be comprised or worn down. Water damage from rain, snow, or pests may contribute to some of the siding becoming loose. Although these small areas can be repaired as a short-term solution, it is recommended to replace damaged siding as soon as possible to protect your home, as well as the appearance of your home.

Rotting & Warping

Does it look like your siding is warped, buckled, or starting to crumble? This could be a sign of rot which can spread across the exterior. To test for rot, insert a screwdriver gently under the boards and joints around the gutters and chimneys. Is the area soft, and easy to poke into? This could be a sign of rotting damage. There are many new brands of siding like cement board or siding made from a vinyl composition that do not naturally decay when exposed to long periods of moisture.

Damage from Pests or Storms

Large-scale damage from storms or small damage from pests can present themselves as larger problems if not repaired or replaced. The damage could allow moisture to get into and under the siding which could reach your home’s structural framework or mold growth.

Higher Energy Bills

Rising costs of electricity and temperature swings may not be the only cause of your higher energy bills. Older siding does not insulate your home as well, making your furnace and air conditioner work harder to maintain the temperature in your home. Air leaks and drafts are common in defective or old siding. It may be time to replace your siding if you find you are paying more for heating and cooling bills.

Benefits of Replacing your Siding

Your home can look dramatically different with new siding, enhancing, and upgrading your home’s curb appeal, as well as increasing the value of your home. Installing and upgrading your siding could make a big difference in eliminating drafts, as well as saving on your energy bills in the winter and summer months. Ask the Team at New Windows for America about the different types of siding we offer, as well as siding that is rated by Energy Star for efficiency advantages.

What You Need to Know About Colorado Home Siding Replacement

Posted on October 16, 2018 | by nwfam

Do you need new Colorado home siding replacement? If your house has been around for decades, you might. That’s because, even though siding lasts a long time, it will eventually wear down under the weather conditions you find in Denver and Boulder. When it does, replacing it should be one of your top priorities, since new siding doesn’t just make your home look great, but also makes it safer and more efficient.

To help you understand why – and because it’s important to choose the right replacement siding in Colorado – here are four things you should know:

New home siding is beautiful. Perhaps the best reason to change the siding on your home is simply to give it a fresher look. Whether you’re trying to improve its “curb appeal” to buyers, or just add a new touch to the property, replacement siding can give your house a fresh appeal in a short period of time.
Home siding is fire-resistant. Siding manufacturers have developed a number of ways to make their products more fire-resistant. Hopefully, that’s a feature you’ll never need, but if you do then it could help to save lives, or minimize the amount of damage that has been done to your most important investment.
The right siding can lower your energy bills. As with doors and windows, replacing the siding on your home can help make your house more energy-efficient. That means fewer bills in the summer and the winter, along with more comfortable living spaces for your entire family. Your replacement siding may even pay for itself over time!
Different materials (and styles) make Colorado home siding versatile. One of the greatest things about replacement siding for your Colorado home is that it can be adapted for virtually any look, color, or style. That means your home can be modern or traditional, urban or rustic; you can decide the style you want without sacrificing all the other great benefits that come with vinyl or steel siding.

When you need the very best in Colorado home siding, it’s time to call or visit New Windows for America. Not only do we have a great selection and competitive prices, but all of our products are backed by strong warranties and our commitment to customer satisfaction.
