House siding is a beautiful addition to your property. Manufacturers create siding in many colors and styles, giving you plenty of options to enhance your house. Sometimes, weather and age can cause damage to home siding. If you notice something wrong with your building’s exterior, home siding repair may be the right choice to fix the problem. Rosemeyer Roofing explains your home siding repair options in today’s blog.
Joint Sealing
Joints on home siding need seals to prevent water from seeping into the walls. Seals may weaken naturally over time or due to harsh weather. You may need some caulk to seal any flashing that comes in contact with siding as part of home siding repair.

Cracked or Broken Siding
Damage may come in the form of holes or broken siding. Rosemeyer Roofing can remove the damaged piece and then replace it with a new section of siding. Rather than replace every bit of siding, our team can put a new piece where the old one was if we determine home siding repair is the correct thing to do.
Replacing an Entire Piece
We may find that a new strip or piece of siding is the way to go when you have a damaged piece. A few factors go into this:
- The extent of the damage
- How a new piece looks on your home
- If the new piece doesn’t make the rest of your siding look faded
Home siding repair, even for just a strip of siding, usually doesn’t take very long.

Nails
Companies use nails to keep siding secure on your home. If a company installs siding improperly, nails are ineffective and could lead to cracked siding. Nails should be loose enough to allow the siding to expand or contract with temperature shifts. Home siding repair may involve adding more nails or replacing some nails to make your siding more effective.
