The siding on your building takes a lot of beating from the elements, which means that whatever material it is made from, it will sooner or later become worn and damaged and will require replacement. Here are some signs from Highlands Ranch roofing and siding professionals to indicate that the panels that protect your building need to go to make space for new ones:

• Extensive fading or peeling – some materials, such as metal or stucco, can be repainted when they become faded, but others, including vinyl, are better replaced when they lose color. Peeling is also a sign that you should say goodbye to your siding panels, especially if the problem affects large wall areas;
• Cracks and holes caused by impact – most siding panels are sensitive to impact and can get damaged by the objects carried by strong winds. While some types of siding consist of smaller panels that can be replaced individually, the siding that is made of large panels needs to be replaced in its entirety;
• Signs of pest infestations – pests, such as termites, can find comfortable burrows in or behind siding panels. If you see any signs that harmful critters have moved into the small space between the building wall and the siding panels, you should remove the old siding as soon as you can and you should eliminate the pests before you put up the new siding.
