Why Fall Is the Best Season to Replace You Siding

Fall is a wonderful time for bonfires, trick-or-treating and camping, but you may not realize it’s also the greatest time to repair your home’s vinyl siding!

The dry fall season is ideal for vinyl siding installation; winter snow and spring showers are not only inconvenient to work in, but they may also cause mold and mildew to grow in your home if left exposed for too long. And happy contractors are productive contractors; favorable weather conditions might speed up the completion of your project.

Need a few more reasons to replace your siding this fall? Check out the following reasons why fall is the best time for siding and roof replacement.

1. Contractors Are Busiest in the Summer

Spring is when homeowners start thinking about home improvements, including siding repair and replacement. Although we pride ourselves on our quick and pleasant service, contractors tend to be busiest during the summer months.

2. Spring Weather Is Unreliable

There’s a reason for the April flower saying. Spring in Minnesota can be beautiful, but it can also be rainy. Fall weather is more consistent, so your project may be completed sooner.

3. Avoid Installing Vinyl Siding in the Cold

Snow and ice can compress vinyl panels, and freezing temperatures can halt the process. It also hinders contractors’ exterior remodeling work. Replacing your siding now will ensure it is done before the first big snow of the year.

4. Winter Energy Savings

Waiting until spring to replace your siding means missing out on much-needed energy savings. Basically, your whole house will be kept cool. You’ll be toasty warm all winter and your HVAC system will also benefit from less effort.

5. Minimal Impact on Your Land

Your plants will be done blooming by the time you install new siding in the fall. Many annual flowers will have faded, while plants and trees will be going dormant. Contractors can work without fear of ruining your well-kept yard and garden or lowering your home’s worth.
