What to Do Before Your Siding Installation
In the days leading up to your siding replacement, there are a few steps you can take to help ensure the process goes as smoothly as possible.
Prepare the Inside of Your House
Remove any items hanging on your walls or leaning against them. During the siding installation, it’s normal for walls to shake slightly, so it’s best to remove items to prevent damage.
Prepare the Outside of Your House
To give us easy access to your siding, consider trimming any tree branches that touch your house and cutting back shrubs near the perimeter. It’s also a good idea to clear your yard of lawn furniture or other items and mow the grass to make post-installation clean-up easier, ensuring small debris like nails are easily spotted.
Ensure Access to a Power Outlet
Our crew will need access to a power outlet to operate our tools. If possible, make sure we can easily access a 20-amp circuit power outlet.
Make Arrangements for Your Family and Pets
Siding installation can be noisy. While we aim to minimize disruptions, you may find it easier to arrange for some family members, such as young children or remote workers, to be out of the home during the installation. Pets might also become anxious during the process, so consider making alternative arrangements for them as well.
During Siding Installation
Once your home is prepared, it’s time for us to get started. Here’s what you can expect during the siding installation process.
Arrival and Site Prep
On the day of your installation, our team will arrive at the scheduled time and begin setting up. We’ll protect your landscaping and outdoor areas by laying tarps and may move items to ensure clear access to the work area.
Removal of the Old Siding
Our crew will start by removing your old siding. The removal process may vary depending on the type of siding, but we’ll handle the disposal of debris using a dumpster, ensuring your yard stays clean and hazard-free throughout the project.
Wall Preparation and Inspection
After removing the old siding, we’ll inspect your home’s exterior walls for any signs of damage, such as:
- Rot
- Water damage
- Deterioration
If we discover any issues, we’ll perform necessary repairs before proceeding with the installation, ensuring your new siding is installed on a stable, secure surface.
Installation of the Insulation
During the removal process, we’ll also remove the old insulation. To enhance your home’s energy efficiency, we’ll install new insulation before applying the new siding. This helps ensure your home stays comfortable year-round, regardless of Milwaukee’s varying weather conditions.
Installation of the New Siding
Once everything is prepared, it’s time to install your new siding. The process will depend on the siding material you choose. For example, if you select a pre-painted material, the installation will be faster than if you choose a material that requires painting. We’ll also install new trim to match the new look of your home’s exterior.
Clean-Up
Before leaving, we’ll conduct a thorough clean-up of the job site, disposing of all debris, discarded materials, and nails. We’ll also wipe down the new siding to remove any dust or grit from the installation process. Finally, we’ll inspect the siding to ensure everything is perfect.
Issues That Can Impact Your Siding Installation
During your consultation, we’ll give you an estimated project timeline. However, there are a few factors that could potentially extend the installation process:
- Sheathing Repairs: If we discover damage to your home’s sheathing, it may require additional repairs before proceeding with the siding installation.
- Water Damage or Rot: Addressing underlying water damage or rot is crucial to ensuring the longevity of your new siding, which could extend the installation time.
- Weather Delays: Milwaukee’s weather can sometimes be unpredictable, and safety is our top priority. If severe weather conditions arise, we may need to pause the installation until it’s safe to continue. We’ll keep you informed throughout the process.
