Yes. Many subdivisions built throughout Beaverton in the 1980s and 1990s have composite siding that swells, softens, and rots along bottom edges if caulk fails or gutter run-off splashes against it. We check every board before painting, replace or repair rotted sections with durable materials like James Hardie trim, seal all nail heads and seams with flexible polyurethane caulk, and apply a 100% acrylic exterior coating so water cannot enter.
