Types of Siding we offer

Vinyl

Vinyl is a popular siding materials, and comes in many different colors. Although it's less durable than some other materials, vinyl is still good for most homes.

Wood

Wood siding can be expensive up front, but many homeowners like it for its classic look and how easy it is to paint. Wood also attracts pests like termites, but if the damage is caught early, it's 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, which can definitely be a concern with Philadelphia's weather. Talk to your local All Star Home siding pro to learn more.

Fiber Cement

Fiber cement can be very expensive, but it 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 damage to your siding is expected and common. Siding cracks can be caused by general wear and tear, rain, changes in temperature, or humidity. Holes can be caused by bugs and birds, or by things like hail or stray baseballs hitting your siding. If your brand new siding begins 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 buckling or warping, water damage is the most likely culprit. Water damage can be external or internal, and we highly recommend having one of our All Star Home siding experts investigate to find the cause of the problem. After the source of the damage is repaired, any warped 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. Excessive moisture can also cause rotting and mold, particularly on wooden siding. If left unchecked, moisture damage can spread from your siding to your windows and doors. Philadelphia gets a lot of rain, so you should always have all siding issues professionally inspected to determine if moisture damage is the root cause.

Pests

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

1. Flies
2. Mice
3. Rats

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

Fading or Missing Paint

Over time, the weather will fade the paint on your siding. Especially during periods of high sunshine in Philadelphia, 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 this happens, you might decide to repaint your siding or replace it entirely.

Noisy Siding

Sometimes, noisy siding is just the result of a change in temperature. When it gets hot, your siding may audibly expand. If the noise frequently happens, especially on windy days or during bad weather, parts of your siding 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 for a replacement. A professional inspection can help you determine which is the case.
