Seamless Steel Siding for Independence, MO Area Homeowners
Your home’s siding is what stands between the worst of nature and your biggest investment. You need your siding to be strong. There’s little doubt that one of the strongest types of siding you can put on your home is seamless steel siding. Interested homeowners in Independence, MO, can turn to the local experts on seamless steel siding, Kent Mohler Exteriors. We’ve been installing the highest-quality sidings available for over 40 years.
Benefits of Seamless Steel Siding
While other siding options are pre-cut to generic lengths and fastened onto homes, seamless steel siding from Kent Mohler Exteriors is always cut onsite to your home’s specific dimensions. That’s because we don’t fabricate any siding until we’re at your home installing it. All of our seamless steel siding is made to your home’s exact dimensions, in long, unbroken pieces, with no vertical gaps along the width of your home — thus making it “seamless.” Seamless steel siding benefits include:
- Complete protection – The absence of gaps in seamless steel siding means far less opportunity for mold, mildew, pests, and the harmful effects of weather to take root and affect your home’s framework.
- Years of strength – One of the biggest pros of seamless steel siding is how long it lasts. Homeowners can expect up to 50 years of home protection from their steel siding. And, steel is naturally resistant to impacts, fire, and the aforementioned mold, mildew, and pests, so it’s sure to last.
- Beautiful colors – Besides providing amazing personalization, the manufacturing process of seamless steel siding creates a product that maintains true colors for a very long time. Individual colors are embedded within the steel when it is made, which ensures that colors don’t fade, run, or chip away from the siding as it ages. You’ll be able to appreciate the curb appeal that our beautiful siding brings to your home for years to come.
- Better energy efficiency – We add a radiant barrier underlayment during installation, which combined with the seamless effect of the siding makes for better insulation and better energy efficiency. When it comes to the exterior of your home, nothing can beat a flawlessly tight seal that aids the performance of your HVAC system and protects your home from the elements.
Our Standard Seamless Steel Siding Installation Process
When you work with a leading Independence, MO top siding contractor like Kent Mohler Exteriors, you can rest assured that your siding installation will be given the attention it deserves. The typical process for a metal siding installation includes:
Step 1: Preparation and Planning
Accurate measurements of the area must be taken to determine the amount of material needed. Then, the siding is ordered. Your installers will ensure that the surface where the metal siding will be installed is clean and free from any debris or existing damage. Repairs to the underlying structure are made as necessary.
Step 2: Waterproofing and Insulation (If Needed)
Sometimes, a barrier is applied over the sheathing to protect against moisture. If desired, insulation can be added beneath the metal siding. This step might involve installing foam board or other insulation materials to provide better energy efficiency.
Step 3: Flashing and Trim Installation
Before the siding itself can be attached, metal flashing, such as drip edges and corner caps, is placed around openings, corners, and edges to prevent water penetration and direct water away from vulnerable areas. Trim components are also installed during this step to provide clean edges and transitions between different sections of the siding.
Step 4: The Siding Installation
Metal siding panels are measured, cut, and fitted to the building’s exterior. Each siding panel is secured to the underlying structure using appropriate fasteners to maintain the structure’s integrity and provide reliable defense from the elements.
Step 5: Applying the Finishing Touches
Finishing touches may include cleaning and applying sealant around seams, joints, and openings to provide an extra layer of protection against water and air infiltration.
Step 6: The Final Inspection
The sixth and final step is a thorough inspection to check for proper alignment, secure fastening, and overall quality of the metal siding installation.
