Types of Siding we offer

Vinyl

Vinyl is a very popular siding option available in many different colors. While not as durable as some other materials, vinyl is still good for most homes.

Wood

Many homeowners like wood siding for its classic look and because it's very easy to paint. The downside is that it has a high upfront cost. Wood also attracts pests like termites, but if caught early, the damage is generally easy to fix.

Metal

Metal can also be expensive up front but is very durable and (unlike wood) doesn't tend to attract pests. One potential downside of metal is that this siding can rust, so you may want to visually inspect it whenever your part of Indiana gets heavy rain. Talk to your local All Star Home siding pro to learn more.

Fiber Cement

Fiber cement can be very expensive, but the upside is that this siding material lasts a very long time and often has a long warranty. Fiber cement is low-maintenance and noncombustible.

Common siding problems

Cracks, Holes, and Damage

Minor siding damage is expected and common. Siding cracks can be caused by general wear and tear, changes in temperature, rain, or humidity. Holes can be caused by things like hail or stray baseballs hitting the siding, or by bugs and birds. If your brand new siding starts to crack, or siding of any age is frequently getting damaged in the same place, it could be a sign of poor installation or other underlying issues. Our All Star Home experts can perform an inspection to determine the root cause of the issue.

Buckling and Warping

If your siding is warping or buckling, water damage is the most likely culprit. Water damage can be external or internal, and we strongly suggest letting one of our All Star Home siding experts investigate to find the cause of the problem. After the source of the damage is taken care of, the warped sections of siding can be replaced to make your home look good as new.

Moisture

As described above, moisture issues can cause various problems with your siding. Too much moisture can also cause mold and rotting, especially if you have wooden siding. If left unchecked, moisture damage can spread from your siding to your windows and doors. If the siding on your house in Fort Wayne has any issues, it's always smart to schedule a professional inspection to determine if moisture damage is the root cause.

Pests

What your siding is made of will influence how much it attracts pests. Synthetic materials like fiber cement are less likely to attract bugs and animals than something like wood. Common pests to be on the lookout for in Fort Wayne include

1. Ants
2. Bees
3. Fleas

. At All Star Home, we can help repair pest damage and stop them from coming back.

Fading or Missing Paint

Normal weather will cause your siding paint to fade over time. Especially during periods of high sunshine in Fort Wayne, UV rays will slowly cause fading. Severe weather, such as storms, can also wear away at the paint. Extreme temperatures, or extreme temperature swings, can speed up fading as well. When your siding fades, you might decide to repaint it or to replace it entirely.

Noisy Siding

Siding will sometimes make noise simply due to a change in temperature. When it gets cold, your siding may audibly contract. If your siding is often noisy, specially on windy days or during bad weather, it may be coming loose. If you can find where the noise is coming from, tightening a few screws in the right place may fix the problem. However, if the noise is getting worse or if your siding is old, it might be time to replace some or all of it. A professional inspection can help you determine which is the case.
