5 Signs You Need to Replace Your Siding
Siding doesn’t always fail dramatically. Here are some subtle signs you might be due for an update:
-
Cracks and warping: When siding starts to crack or buckle, you know it’s losing strength. The resulting gaps between the panels allow moisture to seep in, which can cause wood rot and mold growth.
-
Peeling interior paint: Moisture that sneaks through damaged siding often gets into your drywall, leading to bubbling, peeling, or flaking paint inside your home. First, make sure plumbing or roof leaks aren’t to blame. If you rule out these causes, peeling wall paint could mean your siding isn’t doing its job.
-
Mold growth: Dark streaks or fuzzy growth on your siding indicates moisture infiltration. Mold is a health hazard you should take seriously.
-
Faded color: Siding that has faded after years of sun exposure may be UV-damaged. This means the material has broken down and no longer protects your home as effectively as it should.
-
Frequent repairs: If you’re constantly fixing cracks, repainting, or dealing with rot, eventually it will be more cost-effective to replace the siding altogether.

4 Benefits of Insulated Vinyl Siding
Revive Exteriors uses only top-quality materials, with insulated vinyl siding being our most requested option. Here’s why this updated siding is a smart investment:
-
Energy efficiency: Built-in insulation reduces heat transfer, keeping your home warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer.
-
Sound dampening: Extra insulation blocks unwanted noise like the neighbor’s lawn mower or nearby traffic.
-
Durability: Insulated vinyl can handle high winds, driving rain, and temperature swings without cracking or warping.
-
Low maintenance: Forget about scraping, painting, or sealing — insulated vinyl siding looks good for years with nothing more than the occasional rinse.
Revive Exteriors understands the unique needs of the homes here in Northern Michigan and will make the siding installation process as smooth and hassle-free as we possibly can. For your peace of mind, we back everything we do with comprehensive warranties and an A rating from the BBB.

Frequently Asked Questions
Siding FAQ – Revive Exteriors
1. How do I know if it’s time to replace my siding?
Common signs include cracks, warping, fading, rotting, mold or mildew, and rising energy bills. If your siding is more than 15 years old, it may also be nearing the end of its lifespan even if issues aren’t obvious yet.
2. What types of siding do you install?
We specialize in premium, low-maintenance siding built for Northern Michigan weather, including:
-
Alside Ascend Composite Cladding (7" lap panel, authentic wood look, superior strength)
-
Vinyl siding in a wide variety of colors and styles
-
Board & Batten siding for a bold, modern look
-
Specialty shakes and accents for design variety
3. Why choose Alside Ascend over traditional vinyl siding?
Ascend is designed to outperform vinyl. It features a 7" wide lap for a more authentic wood look, higher wind resistance, fade-resistant color technology, and involves far less maintenance. It also comes with a strong manufacturer warranty for peace of mind.

Most siding projects take about 1–2 weeks depending on the size of your home, weather conditions, and design complexity. We’ll provide you with an estimated project timeline before work begins.
