Siding, Seasons and the Worcester Climate
Every region wears siding out in its own way. For Worcester, with summer highs near 83°F, the main factors are these:
Climate regions run from 1 (cool) to 5 (hot); Massachusetts sits in region 2.
Freeze-thaw. Water that gets behind siding and then freezes pries seams and caulk apart. With winter lows near 17°F, flashing at windows and kick-out flashing where a roof meets a wall are worth more than a fancier panel.
Salt air. Near the coast, salt corrodes ordinary fasteners. Stainless or hot-dip galvanized nails and corrosion-resistant trim coil keep siding from streaking and working loose.
Ice dams. Ice at the eaves can push meltwater behind the top courses of siding. Have the contractor check the soffit, roof edge and attic ventilation while the walls are open.
In Worcester, the mild weeks of spring and autumn are the favorite time for siding, so they fill first. Crews manage fine in summer; hard winter cold slows vinyl and caulk work. Worcester is in Worcester County, and most siding crews here cover the wider county. Ask at least one contractor from outside the city for a bid; travel rarely adds much on a whole-house job.
