Top Piece Of My Vinyl Siding Keeps Blowing Off

While durable strong wind gusts can loosen the material causing it to fall off the side of homes.

Top piece of my vinyl siding keeps blowing off.

Snap the second to last piece of vinyl siding into place. The nail slots in the siding were not torn the siding pulled the nails right out. Homeowners can hire a contractor to replace the missing siding or purchase necessary materials and repair the siding themselves. The siding is over 20 years old and is no longer available it has a particular pattern and is of a color that isn t made any longer which wouldn t match our remaining siding anyway because of aging and fading.

The perforated panels under the overhangs some. Loosely secure it with galvanized roofing nails or exterior screws in the center. We recently had siding blow off of our house during a strong wind. Secure the utility trim also called under sill trim just below the soffit using the same.

The same effect holds true for the vinyl trim that installs. There were wind gusts of up to 65 mph recorded at a nearby airport about a month ago which ripped off a total of about 100 sq feet of my vinyl siding in two separate areas of my house. Usually the top cut pieces are held in place by nails and the nails are covered by the j or f molding that supports the soffit panels.
