Benefits of New Siding
New siding is about more than just looks. Here's how quality siding helps your home and your wallet.
Curb Appeal
New siding is one of the fastest ways to change how your home looks. Pick from hundreds of colors and styles to give your house a fresh, modern appearance. Your neighbors will notice the difference right away.
Energy Savings
Old, cracked, or poorly installed siding lets heat and cold air escape. New siding with proper insulation can lower your energy bills. Many Atlanta homeowners see real savings on their monthly power costs.
Home Protection
Siding is your home's first line of defense against rain, wind, and pests. Quality siding keeps moisture out of your walls, preventing mold and rot. It also stops bugs and critters from getting inside.
Lower Maintenance
Tired of painting your house every few years? Modern siding materials need very little care. A simple wash with a garden hose keeps most siding looking great for decades.
Higher Home Value
Siding replacement is one of the best home improvements for return on investment. When it's time to sell, buyers love seeing new, quality siding. It shows the home has been well cared for.
Signs You Need New Siding
Not sure if your siding needs replacing? Look for these common warning signs. If you spot any of them, give us a call at (404) 797-8115 for a free inspection.
Warping or Buckling
Siding that's pulling away from the wall or looks wavy has likely failed. This lets water get behind the siding and into your home's structure.
Rot or Soft Spots
Press on your siding in a few spots. If it feels soft or spongy, rot has set in. This is common with older wood siding and needs quick attention.
High Energy Bills
If your heating and cooling costs keep going up, failing siding might be the cause. Gaps and cracks let your conditioned air escape.
Fading and Chalking
Some fading is normal, but heavy fading or a chalky residue means the siding's protective layer has worn away. It's now open to moisture damage.
Mold or Mildew Growth
Dark spots or fuzzy growth on your siding is a sign of trapped moisture. This can spread to your walls and cause health problems inside your home.
Cracks and Holes
Any cracks or holes in your siding let water and pests inside. Even small gaps can lead to big problems over time.

Why Siding Matters in Georgia
Humidity and Rain
Georgia's high humidity and heavy summer rains test your siding every day. Poor siding lets moisture seep into your walls, causing mold, rot, and structural damage. Quality siding with proper installation keeps water where it belongs—outside.
Heat and Sun
Our hot Atlanta summers can fade and warp cheap siding. The constant expansion and contraction from temperature swings causes gaps and cracks over time. We install siding rated for our climate so it holds up year after year.
Storms and Wind
Spring thunderstorms and the occasional hurricane threat mean your siding needs to handle high winds and flying debris. Impact-resistant siding options protect your home when storms roll through metro Atlanta.
Siding vs Other Exterior Options
Siding vs Exterior Painting
Painting costs less up front, but you'll need to repaint every 5-10 years. Siding lasts 20-50 years with almost no maintenance. Over time, siding usually costs less and looks better. Plus, siding adds insulation that paint never can.
Siding vs Stucco
Stucco looks great and works well in dry climates, but Georgia's humidity can cause problems. Stucco cracks can let water behind the surface, leading to hidden damage. Modern siding handles our wet weather better and costs less to repair if damaged.
Siding vs Brick
Brick is durable and beautiful, but it costs much more than siding. Many homeowners in Marietta and Atlanta choose to combine siding with brick accents. This gives you the brick look where it matters most while keeping costs reasonable.
