Why Fall Is the Best Time to Replace Your Siding - PJ Sullivan Exteriors

Why Fall Is the Best Time to Replace Your Siding

Homeowners usually put off home improvement projects until the start of spring, thinking that the season is the best time to work on their exterior. Arguably, however, fall is the best time to make modifications to your exterior, particularly your siding. PJ Sullivan Exteriors, one of the top roofing replacement companies in the state, lists the reasons why below. 

Autumn is Relatively Dry

The biggest problem with doing home improvement projects in spring is the rain showers. If water manages to infiltrate your home’s interior while parts of its exterior are being replaced, mold might start to form. Luckily, moisture won’t be too much of a problem in the dry and cool autumn weather. 

It’s Not Too Hot or Too Cold 

The ideal temperature for installing siding is 50°F, which is well within the range for fall temperatures. Siding starts to become more rigid once temperatures drop below that threshold and expand in temperatures above 50°F. If the siding materials are too rigid, contractors will have a hard time installing them. If it’s too hot, siding will expand, potentially affecting your windows. 

You Can Get Better Deals on Siding

It’d be a shame if you didn’t take advantage of the great deals on siding in fall. Hardware stores and contractors usually put their remaining inventory on sale to make room for newer products that might hit the market next year. And since demand for home improvement projects usually drops in winter, some contractors might offer discounts for their services. 

You’ll Get to Maximize Your ROIs

However, don’t be too complacent—other homeowners might want to take advantage of seasonal discounts and sales. Besides, the sooner you can replace your siding, the better your returns on investment are. Installing more energy-efficient siding can help you keep your heating costs to a minimum even as temperatures dip below zero. 

One more thing: to protect your ROIs, only hire certified siding contractors. Looking for one in your area?
