Your roof and your siding are two of the most important, and most noticeable, elements of your home’s exterior. Eventually, your roofing system and your siding will require replacement, and it can greatly benefit you to take on these two projects together.
Roof replacement and siding replacement are two large home remodeling projects, and sizeable investments in your home, so you might be wondering if it makes sense to do both projects simultaneously. In fact, it can save you time, money, and stress to do a roof replacement and siding replacement at the same time. Below is everything you need to know about the benefits of choosing to do both projects together.
Easy Planning
Doing a roof replacement and siding replacement simultaneously makes for easier planning in a few different ways, including:
- Finding Contractors: Finding contractors to do your roofing and siding may be easier if you are planning both projects together. Many roofing companies have relationships with siding contractors and may be able to recommend colleagues with whom they feel comfortable working. Some remodelers might even be able to handle both projects for you.
- Easier on Your Schedule: If you need to be present during the project, it is easier to take time off and make room in your schedule if both your roofing and siding are being done at the same time.
- Inspections: Roof inspections and siding inspections are necessary upon completion of replacement work. You will save time by scheduling both inspections together.
Enhanced Curb Appeal
Your roof and siding both play important roles when it comes to the visual appeal of your home. Doing both projects at the same time makes it easier to coordinate colors, textures, and style for a seamless look. There can also be somewhat of an aesthetic misbalance should you replace your roof but not your siding, or vice versa. Taking on both projects simultaneously will make for a beautiful and cohesive looking home.
Added Durability and Protection
Your roof and your siding are both key players when it comes to protecting your home from the elements. Replacing only one of them leaves your home vulnerable and unprotected, while doing both at the same time will give you a stronger, more durable, and more well protected property.
Cost-Effectiveness
Cost-effectiveness is another compelling reason to do both projects simultaneously. You may get discounts for doing both projects at the same time and may be able to use less time off work by getting these two large projects taken care of simultaneously. Roofing and siding are also closely connected elements of your home’s exterior, and such, may require some overlap during the replacement process. Your roofing contractor may require that some of your siding be removed, for example, or your siding contractor may need to adjust or remove your shingles to get the job done right. Doing both projects at the same time may allow you to save money on labor and materials.
