Cleaning and Maintaining your Siding
Don’t abandon your siding, it’s an important part of your house too! Let CMAC Roofing teach you the best way to maintain siding.
When it comes to the exterior of your home, the siding plays a vital role in protecting your property from the elements. In order to keep your siding in good condition, it is important to clean and maintain it on a regular basis.
Maintaining your Siding Properly
Here are some tips from the experts at CMAC Roofing on how to clean and maintain your siding:
1. Inspect your siding regularly for any signs of damage such as cracks, loose boards, or peeling paint. If you notice any damage, call CMAC Roofing immediately at 214-730-5817 to schedule a repair.
2. Keep your gutters clean and free of debris. Clogged gutters can cause water to back up against your siding, leading to water damage.
3. Use a pressure washer on a low setting to clean your siding. Be sure to test the pressure washer on an inconspicuous area first to make sure it won’t damage the siding.
4. If you have any areas of mildew or mold, mix up a solution of one part bleach to three parts water and apply it with a soft brush. Let it sit for several minutes before rinsing it off with a hose.
5. Once a year, apply a fresh coat of paint or sealant to your siding to protect it from the elements and help it keep its color.
By following these simple tips, you can keep your siding looking like new for years to come. And if you ever need any repairs or replacement, be sure to call CMAC Roofing at 214-730-5817 – we’re always happy to help!
