Q: How big does hail have to be to damage siding?

• <div><p>Hail as small as 3/4 inch (about the size of a penny) can cause damage to your siding. When hail reaches 1 inch in size, you can expect to see more cracks, chips, and holes, and hail that&rsquo;s 1 and 1/4 to 1 and 1/2 inches around will cause significant damage. If you see hail that&rsquo;s 1 and 1/2 inches to 2 inches or more in size, the damage is likely to be extensive and possibly even dangerous.</p></div>

Q: How do I remove mildew from wood siding?

• <div><p>Mildew grows into porous wood, making it more difficult to remove than regular dirt (and more destructive). We suggest using a dedicated mildew and mold fungicide to remove mildew, which is found in any local home improvement store. Apply a dose of the fungicide to the siding and leave to work according to the instructions, usually for an hour or two. Then wash it thoroughly away and scrub the spot again. Repeat the process if necessary. If nothing is removing the mildew stains, you should plan on removing those clapboard planks in time, as their damage could cause future problems.</p></div>

Q: Do you need to sand cedar siding before staining?

• <div><p>If you buy new cedar, the process of cutting it usually roughs up the surface enough that it doesn&rsquo;t require sanding. However, if you buy older cedar or you&rsquo;re repurposing it from another application, it&rsquo;s a good idea to sand it. This helps the stain settle into the grain, and results in a more uniform appearance. </p></div>

Q: What does clapboard siding exposure mean?

• <div><p>The clapboard exposure, also called the reveal, refers to the amount of clapboard visible in the siding. Clapboards always overlap slightly, but some overlap more than others. The exposure is the vertical measurement of the board that remains visible as the clapboard is installed.</p><p>When repairing clapboard siding, it&rsquo;s important that you match the exposure of your current clapboards. You may want to take a measurement of the specific exposure on your siding for reference in repairs.</p></div>

Q: Does concrete log siding offer any cost savings compared to wood logs?

• <div><p>Concrete log siding offers some cost savings when compared to wood logs. Real wood logs require ongoing maintenance that can total up to $750 annually, while concrete log siding doesn&rsquo;t require annual maintenance. Since concrete log siding exceeds the requirements of most building codes, it can also lower insurance premiums and boost resale value.</p></div>
