Why It’s Best to Install New Siding in Winter

Replacing your damaged siding during winter may sound new to many hesitant homeowners, but putting off this project until spring rolls around can be much worse. Fortunately, the hazards of cold weather are manageable, not to mention that tackling your project at this time of year comes with many surprising benefits.

ARCH Exteriors, one of the top providers of siding and roof replacement services in the region, shares three of the biggest benefits of installing new siding in winter.

• Contractors can attend to emergency work. Sometimes, unexpected things happen and parts of your home will need to be repaired or replaced. It’s no different with your siding; if for some reason snow or hail manages to damage your home’s exterior, there’s no better time to call in a siding expert than now. Many contractors like ARCH Exteriors remain on-call during this time of year to attend to emergency work.
• There’s generally less competition. Since most homeowners would rather schedule their projects in warmer months, it’s easier to make an appointment with your roofer because they have more time on their hands during the winter season. If you want to get your siding installed at your own pace, then this is the best time to get it done.
• You can enjoy significant energy savings. Installing your siding in winter can also improve your home’s energy efficiency. Your exterior constantly performs its best to keep the heat within your interior from escaping outside, so old and damaged siding can lead to heat sinks that might actually be cooling down your home. Aside from enjoying a more comfortable living space, you can also gain significant savings on your utility costs.
