Is Your Home’s Siding Ready for Flooding? Here’s Why New Jersey Homeowners Should Act Now

Heavy Flooding in NJ Has Damaged More Than Just Basements — Check Your Siding Before It’s Too Late

New Jersey has seen record rainfall and severe flooding in towns like Bound Brook, Manville, Lodi, and Little Falls this season, and while you may be focused on cleanup inside your home, don’t overlook what’s protecting your home on the outside: your siding.

Water damage to siding is more than just cosmetic. Once floodwater seeps behind your siding panels, it can cause mold growth, wood rot, and structural issues that put your entire home at risk.

Signs Your Siding May Be Damaged After Flooding

✅ Warping or buckling panels

✅ Water stains or discoloration

✅ Mold or mildew buildup

✅ Cracks, gaps, or loose siding

✅ Higher energy bills due to moisture intrusion

If you live in a flood-prone area like the Raritan River basin (Bound Brook, Manville), near the Passaic River (Little Falls, Lodi), or anywhere in Bergen or Passaic County, it’s critical to inspect your siding as soon as possible.

How New Siding Protects Your Home from Future Floods

Quality siding acts as your home’s first line of defense. Modern siding materials, like vinyl, resist water damage better than older wood panels, keeping moisture out and energy costs down. Plus, professional installation ensures that seams and edges are properly sealed to prevent leaks during the next big storm.

Don’t Wait Until the Next Storm Hits

If you’ve experienced flooding this season, schedule a siding inspection now. A small repair today can save you thousands in major water damage later.
