Winter weather in Northwest Arkansas isn’t just tough on your roof—it can also take a toll on your siding. Freezing temperatures, snow, and ice can cause significant issues if your siding isn’t in good shape. For example, water from melting snow can seep into cracks, and when it freezes again, it can worsen those cracks. Over time, this leads to warping, splitting, or even detachment of the siding panels.
Certain materials, like vinyl and wood, are more vulnerable to winter damage. Vinyl can become brittle in freezing weather, while wood siding may absorb moisture, causing it to swell or rot. Regular maintenance is key to preventing these problems. Ensure your siding is clean and debris-free so water and ice don’t build up. Check for cracks or loose panels before the first freeze, and consider applying a weatherproof sealant for added protection.
