VINYL
Exceedingly popular, vinyl siding covers the vast majority of homes across the United States. This material is extremely versatile, supplying an attractive aesthetic as well as an endless amount of functionality.
Resistant to both water and sunlight, vinyl siding is quite durable, lasting for a minimum of 20 years. Requiring almost no maintenance, it’s very easy to care for.
Vinyl siding comes in a wide array of colors, all of which can be purchased at relatively reasonable prices. This makes it a suitable siding material for homeowners of all budgets.
FIBER CEMENT
Fiber cement siding consists of a mixture of cement and synthetic fibers. This mixture creates a material with a great deal of functionality. Not only is fiber cement siding durable, it’s extremely low-maintenance as well.
Designed to thrive through intense water and sunlight exposure, fiber cement siding is a suitable option for all climates. At a minimum, you can expect it to last for around 40 years. However, most fiber cement siding lasts much longer.
Available in a variety of colors and styles, this siding is made to accommodate all types of houses. This makes it a terrific option for most homeowners.
WOOD
The traditional siding material, wood is exceptionally beautiful, providing an elegant aesthetic to any home which it adorns. Often used on luxury homes and older homes, it’s available in both shakes and panels.
An extremely durable siding material, when properly maintained, wood siding can last for up to 50 years. While wood siding does require some maintenance, the amount of maintenance required is fairly low.
Because it can be painted, wood siding can be made to present any color. If you wish, you can even change its color after it’s been installed. In this respect, it is endlessly versatile.
ENGINEERED WOOD
A fairly new siding material, engineered wood is like natural wood, but with a bit of a twist. This material is made out of a combination of wood fibers and synthetic polymers, supplying it with a terrific aesthetic as well as a great deal of functionality.
Engineered wood thrives in any conditions, withstanding water and sunlight for years without the need for serious maintenance. At a minimum, it will last 25 years. At a maximum, 50 years is a good estimate.
