Summer in Woodbridge VA is the perfect time for family vacations and outdoor activities, but it’s also a great time to get all your cleaning done!

So whether you just recently installed your siding or want to prolong the life of your existing one, here are some tips to keep your vinyl siding looking like new!

How To Keep Your Vinyl Siding in Tip Top Shape

  1. Clean your siding on a regular basis. The best way to avoid mold and mildew is by regularly cleaning your siding. You can clean your siding with a soft cloth or soft bristled brush, and a mild cleaning solution. You can also clean your siding using a pressure washer, but depending on your siding you might not be able to. So before you use the pressure washer, research the manufacturer’s recommendations.
  2. Perform regular inspections. As siding contractor in Woodbridge VA, we replace a lot of siding, and one of the reasons why many homeowners need siding replacement is because they’ve had cracks on their siding that they never fixed. When you leave cracks or loose areas unattended, your siding runs the chance of being exposed to moisture which then leads to mold. So perform regular inspections! If you see loose or cracked siding, call us to repair it!crack-in-vinyl-siding
  3. Watch out for melting. Keep your grill away from your siding! Heat will melt your siding. If you have any cooking equipment or lighting equipment that requires fire, keep it a safe distance from your vinyl siding.
  4. Protect your siding: As a siding contractor in Woodbridge VA, we see a lot of different types of damages to siding. And while you can’t predict everything, you can be proactive. If you are performing construction work, do it away from your siding or cover it. If there are any trees next to your siding, trim the branches in case of a storm. Do as much as you can to protect your vinyl siding from possible hazards.

We hope you keep in mind all of these tips and you keep your siding looking brand new. But if your siding is in need of replacing, give MidAtlantic Contracting a call at 703-492-4663.
