siding / soffit & Fascia

---

Nothing beats the installation of new siding; it is vibrant, sturdy, and overall appealing to look at.  Siding doesn't just improve your curb appeal — it also plays a crucial role in the protection of your home.  Siding is greatly responsible for the energy costs of heating and cooling a home.  Thin siding or ill-fitting siding that has gaps in it are often responsible for a high amount of air leakage, and letting hot or cold air escape means having to pay much more in energy bills.  Add another layer of protection against the elements with our siding installation services. 

Soffits are primarily cosmetic, but they play an important role in controlling air infiltration, humidity, and air quality in your home or building.  Soffits are typically perpendicular to fascia and parallel to the ground.  An important design and aesthetic consideration for a new soffit is whether the non-conditioned space hidden behind the soffit is to be vented or sealed.  Vented soffits have holes protected by screens or louvers, which allow for airflow and minimized access for birds, insects, and rodents, whereas non-vented soffits are solid and sealed to minimize airflow.

Since soffits are typically seen from ground level and not hidden behind gutter systems as some fascia installations are, aesthetics are important.  On virtually all homes, unsightly or damaged soffits can be repaired or replaced by Eirhart Construction.
