Protecting your home against the harsh, Northwestern weather conditions is a necessary part of owning a house in Chicago. Siding is a particularly important part of your home’s defense against the elements and providing prompt maintenance is essential—especially if you’ve noticed some of the more common signs of deterioration, like rotting, cracking, or widening gaps, strange stains or warping—and even a rise in your monthly energy bills.
At WindowWorks, we agree that siding issues should be fixed as soon as possible to protect your home investment and enjoy a more comfortable living environment throughout the year. We also can easily say that summer is our favorite time for siding installation for reasons that go beyond the great weather conditions—though that’s important, too.
If you’re thinking about upgrading your home with a new siding installation this summer, you’re in the right place. Take a look at some of the benefits of siding replacement this season and throughout the rest of the year, brought to you by our team of expert contractors at WindowWorks.
Why Summer is the Perfect Time to Schedule Your New Siding Installation
Weather is an important part of planning a siding project. If rain falls while your siding is being installed, there is a serious risk that your insulation and the walls of your home could be exposed to water. This could lead to water damage, mold, and other issues later.
In the summer, the chance of rain showers on any given day is generally much lower than it is throughout the rest of the year, making it an ideal time for siding installation. Another great reason why summer is the perfect time for siding installation is that many people are off on vacation may have the additional time they need to supervise the process.
Beautiful, Durable Siding in Any Season
Whether you upgrade your home in the winter, summer, spring, or fall, new siding offers a wealth of benefits that will enhance for years to come. Here are some of the many benefits of new siding:
- Increased Curb Appeal: Brand-new, beautiful siding products can rejuvenate aging, worn, or tired-looking residential properties with a surprisingly modern and fresh look. Whether you’re thinking about selling your home or simply hoping to breathe new life into your home’s exterior, replacing your siding can transform your home with significant curb appeal.
- Extra-Strength Structural Protection: Old and damaged siding can lead to serious structural issues on your property. When siding fails to protect against moisture and mold, the walls and insulation in your home can begin to deteriorate. Repairing or replacing siding before it’s too late is one of the best things you can do to protect the foundations and structural integrity of your home.
- Boost Energy Efficiency: The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that a properly weather-sealed home can shave up to 30% off of their energy bills each year. The siding on your home plays a huge part in determining how effectively weather sealed your home is. This also means that investing in high-quality siding is an investment that will eventually pay for itself.
