Should You Finish Your Siding Replacement in the Fall?

Home improvement projects depend greatly on the expertise of your hired contractors. For example, window companies with years of experience can help you maximize the benefits of your new replacement windows. For siding installation projects, the quality and performance of your siding are determined by how well your contractor installs your chosen boards.

One of the challenges in hiring the right contractor for your siding replacement is finding a good time when to do it. Most homeowners choose spring or summer to schedule their home improvements, making these two seasons one of the busiest times of the year for general contracting companies. That’s why our experts at Austin Pro Siding, Windows & Roofing recommend getting your siding done just before fall is over, and here are their reasons.

The Slow Season

A lot of people hesitate on siding repair and installation during fall because of the season’s unpredictable rains. Thankfully, fall in Central Texas is actually comfortable and filled with clear and sunny days. By taking advantage of your contractor’s slow season, you can enjoy hassle-free scheduling options as well as enjoy slow-season promotions and discounts many home improvement companies offer this time of the year.

Preparing for Winter

Winter is the best time to “test drive” the performance of your new siding. While Texan winters are milder compared to other Northern states, it can still put your home’s energy efficiency to the test. If you finish your siding replacement just before the cold days roll around, you can also maximize your energy savings.

Advanced Installation Methods

Many siding contractors used to require dry and sunny weather to allow weather-stripping and insulation foams to set properly. Today, however, moisture-resistant methods of installing siding products have opened up new ways to make fall and even winter-time siding replacements to work.

At Austin Pro Siding, Windows & Roofing, we can help you find the right siding solution for your home any time of the year. Give us a call at our Main number, (512) 550-0000 or fill out our contact form to schedule a consultation and request a free estimate today.

The 'Woodpecker Tax': Why West Austin Homeowners Are Switching to James Hardie Siding

West Austin's tree canopy and humidity make wood siding a costly liability — woodpeckers, carpenter bees, and hidden rot can quietly turn a $200 patch into a $12,000 repair. James Hardie fiber cement siding eliminates pest vulnerability and moisture damage at the source, with long-term costs that routinely beat the annual patch-and-paint cycle. If you're tired of paying the Woodpecker Tax, here's exactly what switching looks like and what it's worth.
