What are the signs I need new siding?

In Bothell’s wet climate, siding can degrade quickly. Look for warping, rot, mold growth, or peeling paint. Rising energy bills and visible cracks are also strong indicators it’s time for replacement.

Most residential projects take 5–10 days, depending on material, weather, and home size. We’ll provide a clear timeline before starting.

Does New Siding Add Value to My Home?

Definitely. Installing new siding is one of the highest-ROI home improvements you can make. Professionally installed siding:

* Boosts curb appeal and modernizes your home’s exterior

* Increases resale value

* Enhances insulation and energy efficiency

* Reduces maintenance and repair expenses

In the greater Bothell and Seattle area, homeowners often see a 70%–85% return on investment, especially with durable, high-quality materials like fiber cement or engineered wood.

Can I Repair Part of My Siding, or Do I Need a Full Replacement?

In many cases, partial siding repairs are absolutely possible. If only certain sections of your siding have been damaged by moisture, debris, or aging, we can often replace those panels and match them seamlessly to your existing exterior.

For older homes or discontinued colors, however, a complete siding replacement may provide a more consistent look and stronger long-term protection. After a detailed inspection, our experts will give you an honest recommendation based on your siding’s age, condition, and appearance.

Can You Match My Existing Siding for Repairs?

Yes. In most cases, we can perfectly match your existing siding—including color, profile, and texture. We partner with top local and national suppliers to locate the right materials and can even source discontinued or specialty siding for older homes or HOA communities.

If an exact match isn’t possible, we’ll offer creative solutions—such as custom color blending or strategic transitions—to ensure a seamless, polished finish that complements your home’s style and improves its overall protection.

What’s the Difference Between Hardie Board and Wood Siding?

Hardie Board is a type of fiber cement siding that replicates the classic look of wood while offering superior durability and minimal maintenance. It’s made from a mix of cement, sand, and cellulose fibers, making it exceptionally resistant to moisture, fire, and pests—ideal for Bothell’s damp climate.

Wood siding, on the other hand, delivers authentic warmth and natural texture that many homeowners love. It can be painted or stained in countless finishes but needs consistent care to prevent rot, insect damage, and weathering.

If you want the timeless appearance of wood without the constant upkeep, Hardie Board is the smarter long-term choice for homes in the Pacific Northwest.

How Does New Siding Improve Energy Efficiency?

Upgrading your siding enhances both comfort and energy performance. Modern materials such as EIFS, insulated vinyl, and fiber cement form a tight, weather-resistant barrier that helps eliminate air leaks. The result:

* Fewer drafts and cold spots

* Stable indoor temperatures

* Less strain on your HVAC system

* Lower monthly utility bills

When installed by our skilled professionals, new siding acts as a thermal shield, keeping your home warm in winter, cool in summer, and energy-efficient year-round.
