Board and batten continues to be a popular siding type. It’s different from traditional clapboard in that its boards run vertically rather than horizontally. It’s also available in a wide range of materials, including wood, fiber cement and vinyl. The vertical orientation protects it from a lot of the wear and tear that happens to siding.
One of the most common issues is gaps. Gaps along the corner boards are particularly concerning, as they can allow water to penetrate. Gaps along the central boards are usually an aesthetic issue. The exception would be if the base material itself has damage. In that case, the gaps could allow for water or pest intrusion.
You should also repair your board and batten siding if the boards are warping. With vinyl, melting is a concern. We also recommend replacing boards that are cracking or have any other damage. Even though that damage may be small now, it will certainly worsen over time. You should also schedule cleaning regularly and repaint or restain, if applicable, as needed.
If the damage is extensive, you may have to decide between repairing or replacing it. Age is a big consideration. If the siding is in the latter half of its expected life, replacement is usually better. If not, then it comes down to cost. A repair that costs 50% or more of a new installation probably isn’t worth it. You’re likely better off replacing it all at once.
