Siding Repair

Your home’s siding is just as important for its structural integrity as your roof! It does the same work of keeping your home safe from the weather and preventing water damage. That’s why keeping your siding in good shape is just as important as it is for your roof.

If your siding is worn out or reaching the end of its lifespan, replacement is probably the most cost-effective way to handle it; however, in cases of small-scale damage on otherwise new and sturdy materials, siding repair services may be just what you need.

If you’re not sure which service you need, feel free to ask! The Dagmar Construction team wants the best for you and your home, which is why we’re committed to openness and honesty – and won’t upsell you on services you don’t need.

Dagmar Construction’s Choice: Hardie Plank Siding

Plenty of homes in the Southwest Washington and Portland Oregon area use vinyl siding; it’s a common choice because of its affordability. However, it’s also the least durable type of siding and may need to be replaced after 20 years or less.

To bring our clients the best balance of value and longevity, Dagmar Construction uses Hardie Plank Siding. It comes in a variety of colors and styles, so there’s sure to be something that catches your eye. Since it’s made of cement, sand, and cellulose fiber, it won’t attract termites. The best part? James Hardie siding can last for up to 50 years with proper care and upkeep. With proper installation, you might not have to worry about new siding for the rest of the time you live in your home.

Can I Repair or Replace My Siding?

Siding that is reaching the end of its useful lifespan should be replaced if it is damaged. However, if your siding is still well within that useful lifespan and only slightly damaged, you could get by with a repair. Small-scale repairs like this often use filler material and paint to fill in cracks and blend into the rest of the siding.

Naturally, upgrading your siding to something more durable is always an option. Your Dagmar Construction technician can help you weigh the benefits of repairing your existing siding against replacing it. Remember that even a small crack could let water damage your structure, so if your siding is damaged, it may be best to replace it even if it’s relatively new.

If you notice any or all of these symptoms, it may be time to replace your siding:

• Peeling or bubbling paint.
• Cracked or warped siding panels.
• Faded siding.
• Mold or mildew growth (inside the home or out.)
• Dry rot.

All of these symptoms become more likely to occur as your siding ages. Water infiltration can get ugly (and expensive) fast, so if you think your siding could be letting water in, don’t wait – call Dagmar Construction for an inspection.
