Nothing Makes a Statement like New Siding

Siding Options AND Quality

When deciding on a siding for your home, there are things to consider. First, are the different grade options. Less expensive siding options with lower grades will look nice upon installation. However, lesser grades of siding do not take long to split, deteriorate, and self-destruct. That could happen in as little as a year.

Due to this, the minimum we will offer is a grade of 044. To compare, a builder’s grade used on new construction is 040. A grade of 044 is a higher end, more premium grade, and will be able to withstand hail the size of golf balls. The grade of siding is generally dictating by its thickness.

VINYL SIDING

If you opt to go with vinyl siding, there are different architectural styles and colors to choose from. The first step in the process is deciding on which vinyl is right for your home. You can choose from Cedar Shake, Vinyl Log, and much more. An advantage when choosing vinyl siding is that there is no special cleaners needed to maintain its upkeep. Just hose it off and your siding will return to a brand-new look.

Cement Board Siding

This is a popular choice and is an enhancement above a vinyl siding. It is a very durable and also a rugged kind of siding. It is very true in its look and offers the appearance of actual wood more so than vinyl siding. Cement board siding stands up to tough weather and its only downside is that it is a painted product with a paint warranty that lasts 15-25 years.

House Wraps

With every siding installation, we include a house wrap. House wraps are a moisture barrier which allows moisture to pass only one way. Moisture from inside the house can breathe and get out, but the outside rain and weather cannot get in. A house wrap also stops air transference. It is not an insulator but does prohibit air from coming through.

Siding Repair

The elements of nature can take a toll on your home’s siding. Severe winds can actually rip vinyl siding clear off your home, leaving you with a terrible eyesore. That is when it is time to call in the professionals at Par One Construction. Our siding repair service will restore the quality of your siding and get your home back to looking the way it should. There are a number of reasons why you may need to call for siding repair, such as:

• Hailstorms
• Windstorms
• Window leaks

Be sure to call before there is further damage done to your home, due to damaged siding!

The Skill of Matching Siding

Matching up siding is not always as easy as it sounds. It truly requires skill. Vinyl siding purchased a year prior to sustaining damage are generally easier to replace. However, siding that is ten years old is not so easily replaced. Manufacturers will change their lineups quite frequently, which sometimes makes it difficult to get an exact match. We are very good at matching up siding, but there are times when outdated siding will call for more than just a replacement since that type of siding is no longer exists.

A common problem some homeowners will hear from siding contractors is they cannot get that same kind of siding due to a discontinuation of that particular style of siding. That would then mean that the entire home would need to be resided to make sure all the siding matches. Par One will lobby for homeowners in these instances recommending to insurance companies that the entire house needs to be resided with matching vinyl. That extra nudge from a reputable siding contractor like Par One often convinces insurance companies to approve the entire residing of a home.
