5 Signs Your Vermont Home Needs New Siding

Discover the key indicators that it’s time to replace your home’s siding before harsh Vermont winters cause more damage.

Vermont winters can be brutal on home exteriors. If you’re noticing any of these signs, it might be time to consider new siding:

1. Warping or Buckling Siding that has warped or buckled is a clear sign of moisture damage. This is especially common after Vermont’s freeze-thaw cycles.

2. Cracks and Gaps Small cracks can let moisture and cold air into your walls, leading to bigger problems like mold and higher energy bills.

3. Fading or Peeling Paint While some fading is natural, excessive peeling often indicates that the siding underneath is deteriorating.

4. Increased Energy Bills If your heating costs have spiked, damaged siding could be letting warm air escape.

5. Visible Mold or Mildew Mold growth on siding is more than unsightly—it signals moisture problems that need immediate attention.
