Spring Siding Replacement: Is Your Home Ready?

After a long and snow-filled New England winter, your home’s exterior may have some additional wear and tear. Months of snow buildup, ice dams, heavy winds, and repeated freeze–thaw cycles can quickly wear down your siding, causing cracks, warping, moisture, and hidden damage. Even if everything looks fine at first glance, winter weather can leave behind issues that become more visible once temperatures begin to rise.


As the snow melts, it’s easier to spot peeling, loose panels or soft spots as well as a change in your energy bills that may signal your siding isn’t performing the way it should. Addressing these concerns early will help protect your home from further damage during the coming spring rain and summer heat.


At Bruin Remodeling Group, we help homeowners make siding upgrade choices that enhance durability, efficiency, and style. 



Signs You May Need New Siding After Winter

Winter weather can expose or worsen underlying issues. Here are four key signs to look for:


1. Cracks, Warping, or Loose Siding

Freezing and thawing cycles can cause siding materials to expand and contract, leading to cracks, warping, or panels that are starting to pull away from your home.


2. Fading or Peeling

If your siding’s color has significantly faded or is beginning to peel, it may no longer be protecting your home properly from moisture.


3. Mold, Mildew, or Rot

Excess moisture from snow and ice buildup can lead to mildew, mold growth or rot, especially in areas where the siding is compromised.


4. Higher Energy Bills

Damaged or aging siding can reduce insulation efficiency, allowing drafts and temperature fluctuations that drive up both heating and cooling costs.



Why Spring Is the Best Time for New Siding

Spring offers several advantages for exterior home improvement projects:


  • Mild Temperatures: Ideal conditions for proper siding installation
  • Address Damage Early: Prevent small winter issues from becoming larger, more costly repairs
  • Boost Curb Appeal: Refresh your home’s exterior before summer gatherings and if you are planning to list your home this spring.
  • Improve Energy Efficiency: Upgrade now to prepare for warmer weather and reduce your home cooling costs
