        "text": "Replacement is typically considered when the wood siding is extensively damaged, has widespread rot, or shows signs of structural failure that restoration cannot effectively address. If more than 25-30% of the siding requires replacement, or if there are severe issues like persistent moisture intrusion behind the siding, a full replacement might be more cost-effective in the long run. Restoration is ideal for addressing surface wear, minor damage, and maintaining healthy siding.",
