A little damage today can turn into a major repair if it's ignored long enough. These are the red flags our inspectors look for first.
Siding that looks wavy or bowed is usually reacting to trapped moisture behind the panel — the longer it sits, the more expensive the fix becomes.
Cracks let water straight through to the wall behind them — this is the kind of damage that spreads fast after a storm.
Interior moisture issues can trace directly back to failing siding outside — it's worth having both checked together.
Failing siding is a common, overlooked cause of energy loss — upgrading to insulated siding often brings bills back down.
