Siding Repair
When siding shows signs of minor damage—small cracks, dents, broken sections, or compromised seals—targeted repairs can restore your home's exterior protection at a fraction of the cost of full replacement. Damaged siding, even in small areas, allows moisture, cold air, and pests to enter your wall cavity, leading to insulation damage, wood rot, mold growth, and structural issues that become far more expensive to address over time.
Luitjens Exteriors assesses damaged siding honestly and recommends repair when it's the right solution—not replacement. We match replacement sections as closely as possible to your existing material for a seamless result, and we address the underlying cause of the damage where possible to prevent recurrence.
Siding Replacement
If your siding has suffered widespread storm damage, is significantly aged, is showing signs of moisture damage or mold, or if you're simply ready for a new look, a full replacement delivers the best long-term value and the most significant improvement to your home's performance and appearance. New siding from Luitjens Exteriors delivers:
Improved Energy Efficiency—new siding significantly enhances your home's insulation performance, reducing heating and cooling costs.
Enhanced Durability—modern siding materials are engineered to withstand the specific demands of the St. Louis climate.
Improved Curb Appeal & Home Value—fresh, updated siding is one of the highest-return exterior improvements you can make.
Moisture Protection—a properly installed new siding system eliminates the infiltration pathways that develop in aging materials
Siding as Part of a Larger Project
Many of our siding projects are part of larger exterior restorations that also include roofing, windows, or gutters—particularly after storm damage that has affected multiple systems simultaneously. Because Luitjens Exteriors handles all of these services in-house, we provide a coordinated, efficient restoration that ensures every system works together correctly and that the finished result is consistent in quality and appearance across the entire exterior.
Siding Frequently Asked Questions
What types of siding do you install?
Luitjens Exteriors installs vinyl siding—the most popular and cost-effective residential siding material in the St. Louis area—as well as fiber cement and other premium siding options. Vinyl siding is durable, low-maintenance, and available in a wide range of styles, profiles, and colors. Fiber cement offers exceptional durability and a premium appearance that closely resembles wood or masonry. During your free estimate, we'll walk you through the available options and help you identify the best fit for your home's style, your performance goals, and your budget.
How do I know if hail has damaged my siding?
Hail damage to siding is sometimes obvious—deep dents, cracks, or holes in vinyl panels—but it can also be subtle. Small impacts may crack the protective coating on the surface without visibly deforming the panel, allowing moisture infiltration that isn't obvious until secondary damage appears inside the wall. After any hail event in the St. Louis area, we recommend scheduling a free professional inspection. Our team knows exactly what hail impact patterns look like on different siding materials and will document any damage thoroughly for insurance purposes.
Can I replace just the damaged sections of my siding?
In many cases, yes—targeted section replacement is a cost-effective option when damage is localized and the surrounding siding is in good condition. The main consideration is matching the existing material as closely as possible. Older siding products may no longer be in production, making a perfect match difficult. During your free inspection, we'll assess the extent of the damage and the feasibility of a section repair versus full replacement and give you an honest recommendation based on what actually makes sense for your home.
Does new siding really improve energy efficiency?
Yes—significantly in many cases. Aging siding develops gaps, cracks, and compromised seals at seams and penetrations that allow conditioned air to escape and outside air to infiltrate. New siding, installed with proper house wrap, flashing, and sealing, closes these pathways and dramatically reduces air infiltration. Combined with quality insulation in the wall cavity, new siding can result in meaningful reductions in heating and cooling costs—particularly in older St. Louis homes where the original siding installation predates modern energy efficiency standards.
