Siding Maintenance

Siding Maintenance: 

Siding maintenance is one of the most effective ways to ensure that your property is protected from harsh weather conditions, maintains its visual appeal, and functions efficiently over the years. At APL HOME REMODELING INC, we offer specialized maintenance services that help preserve the integrity of your siding, ensuring that your home or business remains well-protected, efficient, and visually appealing.

Siding maintenance includes a series of tasks designed to extend the lifespan of the material, prevent major issues, and improve the energy efficiency of the property.

WHY IS SIDING MAINTENANCE IMPORTANT?

Siding is essential for protecting the structure of the property from moisture, wind, sun, and other weather factors. However, over time, siding can deteriorate due to constant exposure to harsh weather, dirt, mold, or even physical damage.

Regular maintenance ensures that your siding functions properly and prevents problems such as:

  • Water leaks: If siding wears out or cracks, it allows water to seep in, leading to severe structural damage.
  • Loss of energy efficiency: When deteriorated, it does not provide adequate insulation, increasing heating and cooling costs.
  • Aesthetic degradation: Dirt, mold, and visible damage negatively impact your property's appearance.

Damage spreading: If maintenance is not done on time, small issues will turn into costly damage in the long run.

OUR SIDING MAINTENANCE PROCESS

  1. Initial inspection: Our team conducts a detailed inspection of the siding to detect any signs of damage, accumulated dirt, or weak spots that need attention.
  2. Deep cleaning: We perform a thorough cleaning using low-intensity pressure washing techniques to remove dirt, mold, algae, and accumulated debris without damaging the material.
  3. Crack and fissure repair: If we detect cracks or fissures in the siding, we repair them immediately using high-quality materials to prevent water infiltration and further damage.
  4. Sealing of joints and seams: We apply specialized sealants to the siding joints and seams to ensure no water leaks and to provide moisture protection.
  5. Insulation check: We verify that the insulation behind the siding is intact and functioning optimally to improve energy efficiency.
  6. Final inspection and recommendations: After completing the maintenance, we conduct a final inspection to ensure everything is in perfect condition and provide recommendations for future siding care.
