Should there be a gap between the roof and the wall?

• <div><p>There should be small gaps between your roof and the walls of your home, and other buildings. These small gaps let building materials shift, expand, and contract with weather and other outside forces, and they prevent moisture from wicking down walls from roofing and gutter systems. Without these strategic gaps, your home’s exterior and its finishes can sustain water damage, decay, peel, delaminate, and crack. However, there is a fine line between a smart gap and a problematic gap—all gaps should be small, intentional, and covered or filled in with foam insulation to prevent pests from using them as access points.</p></div>

What increases house value the most?

• <div><p>Increasing home value and return on investment (ROI) are two different things and it’s important to differentiate between the two. While a kitchen remodel will surely raise the value of the house, it may only have an ROI of around 50%. Homeowners <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/remodeling-projects-highest-roi.htm">looking to raise the value of their home</a> for sale will have to consider how much they will recoup by the monetary investment in projects, as the ROI percentages may be lower or higher than the added value on a dollar-for-dollar basis.</p></div>

Can I create shou sugi siding with cedar wood?

• <div><p>Yes, cedar is a popular option for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-shou-sugi-ban-siding.htm">shou sugi ban siding,</a> which is a Japanese style of charring wood for a home’s exterior to finish and protect the material. Cedar <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/shou-sugi-ban-siding-price.htm">shou sugi ban siding costs</a> $15 per square foot on average, but ranges between $2 and $25 per square foot depending on your home’s size, the price of labor, and where you live.</p></div>

Q: What siding holds up best against hail?

• <div><p>The best types of siding to withstand hail are fiber cement siding and engineered wood siding. Fiber cement siding is known for impact resistance, while some brands of engineered wood siding can withstand hail as big as 1 and 3/4 inches with no marks. Vinyl and aluminum siding are the most susceptible to hail.</p></div>

Q: What is the best siding to put over stucco?

• <div><p>Fiber cement siding is the best siding to install over stucco because it offers many of the same benefits for homes where stucco is common, including fire resistance, insect resistance, and good insulation. Fiber cement siding is also rigid, so it won&rsquo;t warp over time like vinyl siding might if installed over furring strips.</p></div>
