Professional Eltham Roof Replacement & Repairs
Your siding is your Eltham home's shield against the elements. It gets more abuse from the elements than any other part of the building. It's designed to withstand the weather for a certain period of time, but in order to do so, certain maintenance must be performed. Asphalt shingles, the most common type of shingles used on today's homes, are designed to last anywhere from 15 to 34 years. But that life can be easily cut short if the siding isn't maintained. Annual preventative maintenance, like the steps listed below, is essential so that your shingles will last as long as advertised.
Every year a homeowner should hire a siding expert to check the siding, for debris. Debris can gather in any place with an obstruction, like an HVAC unit, pipes, or chimneys. The problem with siding debris is that it can retain water and cause problems with your siding's drainage system and possibly siding deterioration. The gutters and drain spouts should also be checked for leaves and debris. You or the siding expert should also make sure all flashings are in good condition and functioning as designed. If not, you should have them replaced by an expert. Another common siding problem is moss or algae growing on the siding. This means that the siding is in an area that is shaded and damp, ideal conditions for growth. Zinc control strips can prevent the growth of moss and algae. Talk to a siding expert about having them installed. By following these preventative maintenance steps, your siding will stay dry and intact.
