Get matched with top siding pros in Litchfield, IL

Q: What do you put under lap siding?

• <div><p>Siding underlayment varies based on the type of material, but most siding is installed on top of a vapor barrier, a moisture-resistant house wrap, sheathing made from plywood or oriented strand board (OSB), and a layer of insulation sheeting. Having the correct underlayment is a critical part of properly installing siding and will protect your home from water intrusion, structural damage, and energy loss. </p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to put siding over stucco?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-siding-cost-replace.htm">cost to replace siding</a> is $10,500, but you should expect to pay an average of $12,000 to install new siding over stucco. The additional cost goes toward assessing the old stucco for damage, any necessary repairs before the new siding goes up, and the materials and labor required to install furring strips over the stucco to attach the new material. Even with this additional cost, installing siding over stucco is often more affordable than removing the stucco and starting over.</p></div>

Q: How do siding contractors determine price?

• <div><p>Siding pros typically charge by the square foot when providing estimates for siding projects. They&rsquo;ll take the material cost and add in an estimated labor fee, and some contractors will include an additional upcharge to account for profit, waste, and unexpected issues. Another important price factor your pro will consider is the quality of your home&rsquo;s current siding, which they&rsquo;ll need to remove, and your home&rsquo;s sheathing. If pros have to make any additional repairs to your home&rsquo;s exterior, the added labor will also influence your final siding cost.</p></div>

Q: Does composite siding warp?

• <div><p>Composite siding is very resistant to warping that can affect some other sidings. Because of its composition, this siding doesn&rsquo;t have the same risks of moisture damage that can cause rotting, buckling, and warping. Composite material doesn&rsquo;t warp in high temperatures the way some kinds of vinyl siding can.</p><p>That said, composite siding is not entirely immune from moisture damage. It should still be properly installed so that moisture can properly drain from behind the siding, and protected by eaves and clean gutter so the siding doesn&rsquo;t get repeatedly soaked by rain, which could lead to damage.</p></div>

Q: Why do some houses have soffits and others don’t?

• <div><p>Many modern homes have soffits, but older ones don&rsquo;t, and you may be wondering why. Older homes have eaves that extend further beyond the home and help to circulate air, negating the need for a soffit. This style of building has faded away, therefore, modern homes need separate soffit installation. Modern soffits are more efficient than this older style and require less material to construct, saving homeowners money. </p></div>
