Discover how to optimize the performance and durability of genuine wood siding by avoiding the 5 common mistakes people make during installation.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MISTAKE #1: Not fastening the siding properly<\/strong>
Lors de l\u2019installation d\u2019un parement en bois, une fixation ad\u00e9quate est un \u00e9l\u00e9ment cl\u00e9 pour garantir que le rev\u00eatement performe au mieux. Il est important de s’assurer que les attaches appropri\u00e9es sont utilis\u00e9es, que la quantit\u00e9 appropri\u00e9e d’attaches est appliqu\u00e9e et que toutes les attaches sont plac\u00e9es aux endroits appropri\u00e9s sur le rev\u00eatement et les moulures en fonction du profil que vous avez s\u00e9lectionn\u00e9.
As an example, Maibec em+ siding<\/a>siding requires TWO staples centered on each furring strip at a 20\u00b0 angle with at least a \u00be\" space between them. Staples should also have a minimum real penetration of 1\" in a solid substrate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MISTAKE #2: Not doing all touch ups<\/strong>
Always apply touch-up stain to all cut or planed surfaces and to all bare wood, even if it will not be visible after the siding is installed. Always touch up siding before you install it. Do the touch-ups<\/a> before installing the siding<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MISTAKE #3: Not keeping water away from windows
<\/strong>Flashing should be installed both above and below windows to avoid water or snow from accumulating, which can cause significant damage to your siding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

MISTAKE #4: Not respecting the recommended clearances between siding and adjacent surfaces
<\/strong>Always respect the recommended clearances between the siding and the ground or other adjacent surfaces such as decks, dormer-roofs, stone ledges orother siding materials, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Erreur#5 : Ne pas assurer la bonne quantit\u00e9 de circulation d’air derri\u00e8re le rev\u00eatement<\/strong>
Il est essentiel pour la performance du rev\u00eatement en bois de laisser une cavit\u00e9 ouverte derri\u00e8re celui-ci afin que l’air chaud et l’humidit\u00e9 puissent s’\u00e9chapper et s\u00e9cher au fil du temps. Il ne suffit pas que le rev\u00eatement ext\u00e9rieur soit install\u00e9 sur des fourrures, il est \u00e9galement essentiel de laisser respirer ces parties ouvertes et de permettre \u00e0 l\u2019air de s\u2019\u00e9chapper par le haut et par le bas du mur. Le fait de ne pas fournir cette zone d\u2019\u00e9coulement d\u2019air et les points d\u2019\u00e9chappement dont elle a besoin peut entra\u00eener la d\u00e9faillance du rev\u00eatement au fil du temps.
Properly installing genuine wood siding will go a long way ensuring it offers good performance and durability. All that\u2019s left now is to protect your siding with regular maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
