Confused about your options? Let’s talk….
Vinyl Siding
Vinyl Siding is a cost efficient, versatile, and easily maintained siding option. It is made from PVC plastic, and unlike wood or cedar shake, will not rot or flake. The variety of colors and styles make this siding option very popular.
Wood Siding
Wood Siding offers a rich look and is extremely durable when maintained properly. Wood siding comes in shakes, shingles, and clapboard. Clapboard siding uses horizontal planks of wood, typically red cedar and pine. Durable, and attractive, wood shingle siding can give your home a more uniform look. With the ability to be cut into different shapes and sizes, this siding option can add visual interest to the exterior of your home. Shake Siding typically is seen in cedar. Cedar Shake will give your home a more “rustic” exterior, and typically works for smaller cottage or bungalow style homes
Fiber Cement Siding
Fiber Cement Siding commonly looks like wood, but behaves like concrete. Extremely durable, fiber cement siding can survive through the harshest elements. Fiber cement siding is more fire-resistant, bug-resistant, and rot-resistant while staying fashionable with its masonry look. It is also attractive because it has minimal upkeep and is not affected by the wind or cold.
Stucco Siding
Stucco Siding is attractive because of its durability, reasonable price, and relative low-maintenance. This siding option has been utilized for hundreds of years. Stucco is an energy efficient choice, making it a more popular choice in warm climates. Stucco expands and contracts with the weather which minimizes cracking. Stucco can also last up to 50 years before it needs to be replaced. Traditionally seen on Spanish style homes, depending upon your locale and design sensibility, this siding option is one to consider.
With autumn approaching, now is the perfect time to put new siding on your home and enjoy it through the winter holidays and well into the future. Major Homes offers free in-home, no obligation, estimates and can offer our expertise in choosing which kind of siding is right for your home’s exterior.
