Common Siding Problems and Maintenance Costs

Florida's climate puts extra strain on standard siding, leading to frequent repairs and upkeep.

Main Problems with Standard Siding

Traditional siding often struggles to maintain its look and durability. Here are some common issues:

• Stains: Dirt, algae, and debris can build up, leaving unsightly marks.
• Fading: Prolonged exposure to the sun's UV rays causes colors to lose their vibrancy.
• Surface Damage: Chips and cracks from storm debris or other impacts are common.

In Florida, these problems are even more pronounced due to the state's harsh weather.

Florida Weather Effects on Siding

Florida’s climate adds extra challenges for siding. Here’s how:

• Humidity: High moisture levels promote faster mold and mildew growth.
• UV Exposure: The intense sun speeds up color fading.
• Storms: Frequent storms increase the chances of impact damage from flying debris.

Maintenance Time and Money

Keeping traditional siding in good shape requires regular attention and investment. Homeowners need to inspect for water damage, fading, and general deterioration to avoid bigger problems. Over time, the cost of these repeated maintenance efforts can exceed what was spent on the original installation.
