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>

Is engineered wood siding less expensive than wood?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/wood-siding-costs.htm">cost of wood siding</a> varies by the type of wood. Engineered wood siding tends to be in the middle of typical costs (<b>$3 to $7 per square foot </b>for materials). Hardwoods, for instance, can cost <b>$5 to $20 per square foot </b>for materials alone, but cedar wood can be as cheap as <b>$3 per square foot</b>.</p></div>

How do you know when siding needs to be replaced?

• <div><p>Signs that you need to replace your siding include siding that’s warping, bubbling, or cracking; signs of rot or mold growth; fading, peeling, or chipped siding or paint; or siding that’s separating from the exterior of your house. Failing to replace your siding when it’s damaged can lead to moisture problems or structural damage, so promptly repair or replace siding as soon as you notice any of these signs. </p></div>

Q: How long does siding last?

• <div><p>On average, siding lasts between 20 and 40 years. Most of the common materials used in siding&mdash;vinyl and wood siding&mdash;can last around 30 years if taken care of. Upscale options like stone, brick, and aluminum can last up to 100 years or more but will cost much more to purchase and aren&rsquo;t as simple to install. </p></div>

Q: How do I estimate how much siding I need?

• <div><p>You can calculate the required square footage of siding you need by measuring the height and width of your home&rsquo;s rectangular exterior walls. For the triangular-shaped gable walls, measure the height from the ground to the tallest gable point to make sure you have enough for good coverage. Once you have combined the totals for each wall, add another 10% to account for wasted materials. It&rsquo;s also good to have extra siding on hand to tackle <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/wood-siding-repair.htm">wood siding repair</a> down the road.</p></div>
