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>

Q: How do OSB prices affect sheathing sales?

• <div><p>OSB is a common material used in sheathing, so when OSB prices go up, so does the cost of sheathing. Depending on the economy and supply chain, increased costs can reduce demand, though some homeowners proceed with their projects despite the elevated expenses.</p></div>

Q: What type of paint can I use on vinyl siding?

• <div><p>Acrylic latex paint is the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-exterior-paint.htm">best exterior paint</a> for vinyl siding. It adheres well to the vinyl surface, reducing the likelihood that the paint will peel or flake. </p><p>The paint color also matters. Choose a light color to prevent the paint from absorbing too much heat and to extend the durability of your paint job.</p></div>

Q: How often should I refinish cedar sidings?

• <div><p>You should restain or repaint cedar siding every four to six years, depending on weather conditions and the starting quality of the wood. If you want a lower maintenance option, opt for vinyl or aluminum siding. Although the cost to install more resilient siding can be slightly more expensive, they don&rsquo;t need as much maintenance and can provide more value over time, especially in areas that see excessive rainfall or high humidity.</p></div>

Q: How long does cedar siding last?

• <div><p>Similar to other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-wood-siding.htm">types of wood siding</a> consisting of natural materials, cedar siding should last <b>20 to 40 years</b>. However, the lifespan for any wood siding, including cedar, can be far shorter without the proper repair and maintenance work. Don&rsquo;t put off making repairs, or problems could worsen quickly. While you can repair minor holes and cracks in the siding shakes, rot and warping requires replacing the boards. </p></div>

He's very professional to deal with and can do any kind of painting I can think of. We were more than satisfied with what he did to the interior of our house. If we had wooden siding instead of vinyl, I'd have hired him to paint that as well. Any paint projects come up in the future...
