Siding

When it comes to siding, you have your pick of materials. The most common siding options in the US today are vinyl siding, fiber cement siding, and wood siding. Vinyl siding is a cost-effective choice that’s widely available and resists heat, wind, and other elements to maintain its appearance without requiring much maintenance. Fiber cement siding resists moisture damage and is stronger than conventional siding—making it suitable for coastal homes. Wood siding offers timeless beauty that enhances the look of any home exterior but requires regular maintenance, including painting or staining. Each siding option has advantages at different prices, making one particular option perfect for your home.
