What Exactly Is Commercial Siding Repair?
Commercial siding repair refers to the process of fixing or restoring damaged or deteriorated siding on a commercial property. Siding serves multiple purposes ranging from functional (protecting the building from the elements, animals, and more) to stylistic (enhancing the aesthetic appeal of a building). Making sure the siding on your commercial property is well maintained is crucial to the success of your investment.
Siding can become damaged over time due to various factors such as weather exposure, moisture infiltration, pest infestation, or just general wear and tear. Our experts are trained to identify these issues so that we not only repair what is broken but also make recommendations that could prevent that same damage from happening in the future.
Making sure that you have quality siding is especially important in southeast Wisconsin, where we face the full force of all four seasons. You need siding that will hold up to all the elements and is easy to repair and replace when damage occurs. Let our team at Standard Roofing & Restoration help you make sure your siding is maintained properly and being replaced by true experts in the field.
Signs Your Commercial Property Needs Siding Repair
While many of the signs that your commercial property might need repair are obvious, others take a careful eye and expert knowledge to spot. Here are some things to keep an eye out for to know where your siding needs repair and maintenance.
Visible Damage
Look for the things that are easy to see like cracks, holes, dents, warping, or peeling paint on the siding. These issues can compromise the integrity of the siding and may indicate the need for repair.
Moisture Damage
Smaller damage in the siding can lead to moisture damage such as mold, mildew, or rot, on the siding or underlying structure of the building.
Fading or Discoloration
While some fading and discoloration are expected over the life of your siding, major changes in color make your property less attractive to the eye, but could also be a sign of some of the other factors on this list.
Frequent Upkeep
If you find yourself repairing your siding a lot on your own, it might be time to consider other solutions that better suit the needs of your property and its uses.
Energy Efficiency
Notice those utility bills going up? That can sometimes be the result of damaged siding that has led to issues with insulation.
Pest Infestation
Pests such as mice, other rodents, birds, and more love the little holes and cracks in siding because it creates a nice warm shelter. If you are noticing a higher frequency of these pests around your commercial property, it could be a sign they’re making a home in the siding.
Ultimately, the decision to repair siding on your commercial property depends on your specific needs, budget, and goals. If you’re unsure about whether your property needs siding installed, it’s a good idea to consult with a commercial siding contractor like Standard.
Our Commercial Siding Repair Process
Here at Standard, we are not in the business of quick fixes and band-aid solutions. Our process ensures that we make repairs once, and only once.
Assessment
We start by assessing the current damage to your siding to create a plan of action. This often means we are not just looking at the external damage, but ensuring that there is no internal damage that has occurred because of the damaged siding.
Preparation
Then we prepare the work area by removing any debris, obstructions, or damaged sections of the siding. This also includes giving you a plan of what is to come.
Repair
We repair damaged or deteriorated sections of siding using appropriate materials and techniques. This may involve patching cracks or holes, replacing damaged panels or boards, or reinforcing weakened areas of the siding.
Sealing and Waterproofing
Then we apply sealant, caulking, or waterproofing materials to seams, joints, or gaps in the siding to prevent moisture infiltration and improve weather resistance.
Painting or Finishing
After repairs are complete, it is time to finish up by painting our repairs when necessary to be sure no one can ever tell a repair was done!
Inspection
We always do a final inspection on all our repairs to be sure the repair is completed successfully.
Cleanup and Maintenance
We pride ourselves on making our workspace cleaner than it was when we arrived and will make sure to pick up every trace that we were there. We then provide you with instructions for ongoing maintenance and care of the repaired siding to prevent future damage and prolong its lifespan.
