What Is Dutch Lap Siding?
Dutch lap siding is a type of exterior cladding for buildings, known for its unique design where each board slightly overlaps the one below it, creating a notch or groove at the top edge. This design originated from early American settlers who sought to mimic the European styles. The overlapping method not only gives a more defined and shadowed appearance to the exterior walls but also enhances the siding’s ability to shed water and resist harsh weather conditions. Dutch lap siding remains a popular choice for its combination of aesthetic appeal and practical functionality.

Signs It’s Time to Install New Siding
We advise homeowners to consider replacement as they approach the expected lifespan of their current siding material. This proactive approach can save you money in the long run. Siding that is missing, cracked, warped, or rotted indicates that replacement is overdue. Bubbling, blistering, or fungal and mold growth are signs of moisture problems, which can also lead to pest infestations. Inside your home, moisture issues may cause wallpaper and paint damage, and a sudden increase in energy bills could also point to deteriorating siding.
The Benefits of New Siding
Investing in new Dutch lap siding offers numerous advantages, including boosting your home’s curb appeal and increasing its property value, with an average return on investment of 80%. New siding not only protects your home’s underlying structure but also allows for a thorough inspection and necessary repairs. Your siding plays a crucial role in the building envelope, and installing new siding can enhance energy efficiency, leading to reduced heating and cooling costs.
