Before starting your siding replacement, there are a number of things you need to consider to ensure the success of your project. These include proper planning, budgeting and the right contractor.

Knowing who you’re going to work with makes a huge difference. When choosing a siding contractor, it’s widely recommended to go with a local company. Here are the top reasons why.

Reasons to Hire a Local Siding Contractor

• Choosing local contractors can help you save more time and money. Hiring contractors from out of town will cost you extra since they would be traveling from a farther place than a local contractor. Since a local siding installer will only be traveling a shorter distance to reach your home, you can expect to pay lower fees.

• Local contractors are easier to find. A local siding company is more accessible simply because of its proximity to you. If you have a siding emergency, the team can get to you more quickly. And if something seems wrong with their repair or installation, you don’t have to worry because you can easily find their office.

• Local contractors are more familiar with local building codes. With a local contractor, you can rest assured your new siding will be up to code – thanks to the company’s familiarity with local rules and regulations. Out-of-town contractors may not have the same knowledge about the rules in your area.

Questions to Ask Your Prospective Contractor

• Where is your location?

• How long have you been in business?

• Are you licensed and insured? Can you show proof of your licensing and insurance?

• What sort of warranties do you offer?

• How long will the project take?
