Most siding problems don't happen overnight — they build up quietly until they turn into a bigger repair bill. These are the red flags our inspectors look for first.
Warped sections mean water has likely gotten in behind the siding — the longer it sits, the more expensive the fix becomes.
Missing panels leave the sheathing completely exposed — this is one of the fastest ways to develop rot.
If paint or wallpaper is peeling on an interior wall, exterior siding is often the cause — it's almost always connected.
If your energy bills have crept up with no other explanation, your exterior envelope could be the reason — new or repaired siding with proper insulation backing helps close that gap.
