You might find siding replacement overwhelming if this the first time you’re undertaking this project. Fortunately, some advanced planning and a little help from your local siding contractors at TEO Construction can help ensure its success. Read on as we share some planning tips:
Tips for a Successful Siding Replacement
Find Inspiration
You can go with a boring, vanilla look for your home, but that would be a lost opportunity to give your home the look that it deserves. Take the time to find inspiration, and explore options that may take your home’s exterior design to the next level. Inspiration can be found in many places: TV shows, magazines and even unlikely sources like the houses in your area. Art pieces can inspire color palettes while nature can inspire textures.
It’s a good idea to work with siding contractors who offer more than one type of siding material. It will let you explore colors, textures and profiles. Design consultants can help you turn your inspiration into a concrete siding replacement plan.
Research the Ballpark Price
No two homes are the same, and, therefore, no two siding replacement projects are the same. Factors like the square footage of exterior walls and the materials chosen for the project can significantly change the price on the quotation, and the only way you can get an actual figure is by asking a contractor for a quote. You can, however, get a general idea of what a project’s ballpark price is by asking friends, family or colleagues who have had similar types of siding installed on their homes recently.
Choose Your Contractor Carefully
Siding contractors like us do more than just install siding. You can benefit from our experience in working with our customers in applying their unique styles and tastes onto their home’s exterior. When looking for a contractor, don’t just sign up with the first search result or the one that offers the lowest bid. Take the time to call their references, look up customer reviews and virtually meet with them. It may take some work, but it’s going to help ensure the success of your siding replacement project.
