How Long Will it Last?

By John Pandich Moore County Home Builders Association President

From Roof to Paint, The Life Expectancy of Your Home’s Components

Just like the human body, your home is made of parts, all working in unison, many unseen and unthought-of during the course of your daily life. From the roof to the foundation, and from the front door to the back, a home consists of literally thousands of components. Ideally, these components might all have an unlimited life expectancy. But given the realities of day-to-day use, how long can a home owner reasonably expect a home component such as a window or roof to last? A study conducted by

the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) and sponsored by Bank of America Home Equity provides insight into the life expectancies of a number of products in the home. The study intentionally overlooked consumer preferences, acknowledging that if they were considered, kitchen counters would be replaced long before the end of their useful life, and rooms may be repainted only once in 50 years. Other factors that can have a significant effect on life expectancy include maintenance, proper installation, the

level of use and the quality of the materials. And some components, while remaining functional, become obsolete due to changing technology or improvements. Insulation According to the study, all types of insulation can be expected to last a lifetime if they are properly installed and are not punctured, cut, burned or exposed to ultraviolet rays and are kept dry. Proper installation not only extends the lifetime of your insulation, it also ensures that it will perform properly, resulting in reduced energy use and expenses, as well as increased home comfort. Windows Windows, because they can be exposed to extreme weather conditions, have a much shorter life expectancy. The study, which polled experts in the various fields, found that aluminum windows can reasonably be expected to last 15 to 20 years and wooden windows

can last upwards of 30 years. An important element of maintaining your windows is the window glazing — the putty that secures the glass to the sash. Over time, this glazing can crack, resulting in drafty and loose panes. Available at any hardware store, glazing can be replaced by simply chipping or scrapping off the old putty, cleaning the window thoroughly and installing new glazing with a putty knife or caulking gun. Some types of glazing require a coat of latex paint for weatherproofing. Roofs Like windows, the life expectancy of a roof depends on local weather conditions as well as appropriate maintenance and quality of the materials. Slate, copper and clay/concrete roofs can be expected to last more than 50 years. Roofs made of asphalt

shingles should last for about 20 years; fiber cement shingles should last about 25 years; and wood shakes for about 30 years. In regards to roof maintenance, it’s important to be proactive to prevent emergency and expensive repairs. Look for include damaged or loose shingles; gaps in the flashing where the roofing and siding meet vents and flues; and damaged mortar around the chimney (especially at the joints, caps and washes). If you see any signs of damage, call a professional to repair it. Paint Although some avid decorators may repaint every six months, homes usually need to be painted every five to 10 years depending on the content of the paint (its glossiness), its exposure to moisture and traffic. Quality paints are expected to last up-

wards of 20 years. Exterior paint conditions should be regularly monitored in order to catch problems early on. Assessing paint for dirt, mold, cracking, peeling, fading and rusting — and repairing immediately, usually through simple cleaning methods such as scrubbing or power washing — can end up saving home owners much more costly repainting jobs in the long term.

Remember, these numbers are averages, with usage, weather, maintenance and a number of other factors influencing life expectancy. Chances are, changing trends will dictate a shorter life span, as home owners update and remodel their homes. For more information on home maintenance, visit the National Association of Home Builders online at www.nahb.org, or contact the Moore County Home Builders Association at 910-944-2992 or visit www.mchba.com .

Give your home an annual checkup to help save energy, money

(ARA) - Clean out the gutters. Put away the deck furniture and grill. Have the furnace checked. Sound familiar? Fall home improvement projects can help protect your home from cold weather and help save money on costly repairs down the road. "An annual walkaround is a great way to check for potential maintenance needs for your home," says Kathy Krafka Harkema, spokesperson for Pella Windows and Doors. "Check major systems that help protect your house - the roof, gutters, siding, exterior finish, windows, doors, foundation and steps, plus interior components like heating, cooling, chimney and electrical systems." Look for obvious signs of deterioration, damage or potential problems, Krafka Harkema advises. Replace or repair worn or broken items before they cause potential problems. Start with new storm door One quick project is to install a new energy-efficient storm door. A storm door brings natural light into the home, while helping to keep the cold, wet weather out. The new Pella Venetian storm door, available at Lowe's across the U.S., offers between-the-glass blinds that are easily opened or closed for added privacy and light control. Plus, its insulating glass design adds energy efficiency to your home's entryway and

THE PILOT — SOUTHERN PINES, N.C.

reduces the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays that can fade interior floor coverings and furnishings. "Adding a new storm door is a quick, affordable way to boost your home's energy efficiency, improve the curb appeal and help protect the entry door from the weather," Krafka Harkema says. Inspect windows, doors When checking your home's windows and doors, inspect the interior and exterior finishes around them. Is the paint or stain in good condition? Signs of flaking and peeling or water stains may mean that it's time to refinish or replace the unit. Next, check windowsills and tracks for dirt and debris like sand, leaves, insects or pine needles. Open windows and doors to clean out the area with a soft brush. Debris can hamper the airtight effectiveness and overall performance of doors and windows. "An easy, effective winterizing tip is to look at the weather stripping around doors and windows," Krafka Harkema says. "Reattach loose pieces and replace those that are ripped or torn." Finally, feel for uneven sliding and sticking when you open and close a window. Try using a non-oily lubricant, like paraffin wax, on the opposing finishes. Replace for safety's sake Windows and doors that do not open and close easily could be a safety risk, espe-

cially in the event of a fire. Replace broken or inoperable windows and doors with safer, more energy-efficient ones. New low-maintenance Pella 350 Series premium vinyl windows and sliding patio doors are up to 83 percent more energy efficient and can help save up to 35 percent on energy costs. These innovative windows and patio doors offer energy-efficient options that will meet or exceed Energy Star guidelines. "These vinyl windows and patio doors are designed for homeowners who want it all," Krafka Harkema says. "They offer topof-the-line energy performance, low-maintenance, durability, popular sizes and stylish options to fit nearly any home." Ten signs it's time to replace your windows To help save energy, look for these signs that it's time to replace your windows: * Overall poor performance of the window - Opening or closing is a difficult task and air leaks in, out or around the window. * In a fog - Condensation or fogging occurs between panes of glass. * Chipping away Chipping, peeling or deterioration on the finish on or around the window. * Singled out - You have a home with single-pane windows, much less energy-efficient than double or triple-pane options.

* Water logged - telltale water stains remain on the leaky window or the area around the window (inside or out). * Out-of-date - Replacement parts are hard to find or even non-existent. * Energy hog - Energy bills are on the rise, so it's time to help

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 30, 2011

increase your home's energy efficiency. * Draft dodger - You can feel cold air or drafts when sitting near the window ... and it's closed. * Shut in - Windows are painted or nailed shut. * Simply put - The window won't open easily or won't stay in

place once you do get it open. To begin your window or door replacement project, to schedule an in-home consultation, or locate your nearest Pella Windows and Doors Showroom, visit Pella.com to connect with your nearest representatives.
