Your siding isn’t just about curb appeal—it’s your home’s first line of defense against Ontario’s weather. From wind and rain to snow and sun, your siding takes a beating year-round. Over time, damage can sneak up, and if left unchecked, it can lead to bigger issues like water infiltration, mold, and energy loss.

At Player Carpentry and Masonry, we specialize in professional siding repair and replacement throughout Stratford and area. If your home’s siding is starting to show its age, here’s what you should know:


🚨 Common Signs Your Siding Needs Repair

  1. Cracks, Warping, or Buckling
    These are more than just cosmetic issues. Cracks and warped panels can expose your home to moisture, pests, and insulation problems.
  2. Faded or Peeling Paint
    If your siding is losing its colour faster than expected, it could be a sign of UV damage or failing material—especially common in older vinyl or wood siding.
  3. Loose or Missing Panels
    After a windy Stratford storm, it’s not unusual to find siding panels out of place. Even a single gap can allow water to seep behind your exterior walls.
  4. Mold, Mildew, or Rot
    Wood siding in particular is vulnerable to moisture damage. If you see greenish-black spots, soft areas, or a musty smell, it’s time to call in the pros.
  5. Higher Energy Bills
    If your siding isn’t insulating your home properly, your heating and cooling system is working overtime—and so is your wallet.

🛠️ Repair vs. Replace: What’s the Right Call?

Not all damage means a full replacement. At Player Carpentry and Masonry, we take the time to assess your siding honestly and recommend the most cost-effective solution:

  • Repair: Ideal for localized damage or newer siding with minor wear.
  • Partial Replacement: Works when one side of your home has taken more damage than the rest.
  • Full Replacement: Best if your siding is old, extensively damaged, or you’re ready for a full refresh in style and efficiency.

🧰 Why Hire a Pro?

Siding repair isn’t just about nailing a panel back in place. It requires knowledge of materials, flashing, insulation, and moisture protection. Our Stratford-based team brings years of experience and precision craftsmanship to every job—big or small.
