Why Siding Matters More Than You Think

Your siding isn't just about curb appeal—it's your home's primary defense against moisture, temperature extremes, and energy loss. Failing siding leads to mold, rot, and structural damage that costs far more than replacement.

Moisture Protection

Modern siding systems include weather barriers that keep water out of your walls

Energy Efficiency

Insulated siding can reduce heating/cooling costs by 10-20%

Home Value

New siding delivers 70-80% ROI and dramatically improves curb appeal
