Proper Installation Improves the Performance of Your Siding

Your siding isn’t just responsible for your home’s aesthetic appearance; it also protects your home and plays almost as big a role as your roof when it comes to ventilating and insulating your house. While investing in high quality materials is crucial in determining the strength of your exterior wall cover, the quality of your siding installation can make or break the performance of your siding. Colonial Remodeling explains why installation is so vital:

Professional Installation

We always recommend that you hire a reputable, experienced professional to install your siding. While you may be tempted to save money up front by going the DIY route, the performance and even life span of the siding is determined by how well it’s been set in place. Not all siding can be installed the same way, and improperly fitting it on your home may cause problems and even reduce the lifespan of your exterior wall cover.

At Colonial Remodeling, we use James Hardie® siding—the crème de la crème of exterior wall covering. We have the knowledge and experience to install James Hardie products and help homeowners like you maximize their home’s protection.

DIY Installation Costs More

Installing siding on your own will actually end up costing you more in the long run. Not only do you have to allocate a budget for the actual siding, but you also have to make a significant investment on equipment. Moreover, without the proper training and experience, you run a high risk of making mistakes that will require expensive repairs down the road.

We always recommend going with the pros when it comes to any home remodeling project. We have all the tools and materials needed for professional and accurate siding installation. So just kick back and relax, and we’ll do the work for you.

The performance of your new siding ultimately depends on how well it’s installed. So if you want a beautiful exterior wall covering that lasts a long time, give our professional team a call. Get in touch with us at (703) 822-7222 for more information on our services. We install James Hardie siding throughout Northern Virginia.
