Frequently Asked Questions About Siding in Merion Station
Look for two warranties: the manufacturer's product warranty (typically 25 to 50 years on quality vinyl, fiber cement, or engineered wood) AND a separate workmanship warranty from the installer (5 to 15 years is normal). Get both in writing before any payment.
If damage is on a few panels and the rest of the siding is sound, repair is usually right and can extend life by 5 to 10 years. If problems show up on multiple walls, the siding is over 20 years old, you see moisture inside, or you've already repaired the same areas twice — full replacement is the smarter long-term move.
