Q: Should you caulk clapboard siding?

• <div><p>Some homeowners use caulk on the edges of clapboard siding to help seal it. However, this method invites new problems. With so many gaps sealed, clapboard siding is often unable to drain properly and moisture from rain or other sources can build up inside. This can lead to rot and other issues over time. When repairing clapboards, it&rsquo;s best to avoid caulking the final product. The exception is trim around windows and doors, which should be caulked to avoid moisture problems.</p></div>

Q: How often should I seal clapboard siding?

• <div><p>Wood clapboard siding needs frequent sealing to keep it in top condition&mdash;likely every two to three years. A sealant helps protect it from both moisture and sunlight damage. Your weather and climate will affect how often you need to seal the siding, but the pros recommend sealing it every couple of years. More durable woods in milder climates may not need to be sealed quite as often.</p></div>
