What happens if you don’t wrap a house before installing siding?

• <div><p>Not wrapping a house before installing siding can lead to moisture intrusion, rot, mold, and even higher energy bills. Older houses may have siding installed without wrap underneath, so it’s a good idea to add a wrap layer when it comes time to replace old siding to prevent potential damage from water intrusion—local codes may even require it, so check with your municipal building authority. </p></div>

Q: How should I clean fiber cement siding?

• <div><p>You may only need to repaint fiber cement siding every decade or so, but you should clean it every six to 12 months, depending on your local climate. First, wash with a garden hose or similar low-pressure device (not a high-pressure washer, which can damage the material) to remove dirt and any large debris. Then, gently wipe down the surface with a soft brush or cloth in a side-to-side motion, following the grain of the fiber cement.</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 are common metal siding issues?

Overall the job was satisfactory, though not excellent. We were not happy with the look of the aluminum siding on the windows. Our biggest gripe, however, is that part of the siding slipped out of place and though we have called them numerous times over the past two years, it has not been fixed....
