The siding is a vital part of any home as it not only increases your home’s aesthetic appeal but it also plays an important role in maintaining its energy efficiency. Therefore, it’s in your best interest to maintain it. Unfortunately, there are times when siding damage is unavoidable, such as during storms.


Here are the various kinds of damage your siding can sustain during storms.

Cracking

Cracks are the kind of siding damage that can occur after hailstorms. Often, this damage runs parallel to your siding and can often be seen in half-circles at the mid-way between the valley and ridges of the siding panels.

Holes

Like cracks, holes in your siding can be caused by hailstones and flying debris. Unlike cracks, however, siding that has holes in it must be replaced immediately as holes will prevent the system from adequately protecting your home from the elements. Apart from that, your home’s energy efficiency could take a downward spiral as well, causing your bills to skyrocket.

To replace your damaged siding, don’t hesitate to turn to siding and roofing contractor D-Wing Construction.

Chipping

If your siding has no inward flexibility to absorb direct hits, you may see chips on your home’s siding system. When you’re looking for this kind of damage, experts recommend that you look underneath the panel section.
