Cosmetic Problems and How to Fix Them
Most homes necessitate a complete repainting every 10-15 years, not only for aesthetic reasons, but because weather-resistant paint (or sealer) is the best way to weatherproof your siding and, likewise, your home. If your home isn’t in need of a complete paint job, it will still have areas that will need regular attention in between, particularly these 7 key spots:
1. Where siding meets a chimney
2. Where siding supports downspouts
3. Under the eaves
4. Around doors and windows
5. Where holes are created to install vents or pipes
6. At or near ground level
7. Where siding has contact with bushes and treetops
