Aging Siding Struggles With Claridge's Hillside Winters
Many homes in and around Claridge were built decades ago as part of the region's coal-era communities, and their original siding is well past its expected lifespan. Westmoreland County's hillside terrain and freeze-thaw cycles cause aging siding to crack, buckle, and let moisture into the wall cavity.

Fading & Discoloration
Years of sun exposure leave siding blotchy and dull, especially on older vinyl.
Cracks & Gaps
Repeated freeze-thaw cycles cause siding to expand and contract until seams crack open.
High Energy Bills
Thin or damaged siding lets heat escape, driving up winter heating costs.
Pest Entry Points
Gaps in siding give insects and rodents an easy way into exterior walls.

Trapped humidity behind siding promotes mold growth that professional replacement resolves.

Faded or dated siding styles can be swapped for a modern look that boosts resale value.
