When considering a home improvement project, such as siding replacement, most homeowners consider budget to be a key component of the decision-making process. Fortunately, there are siding options available for any price.
Patriot Gutters LLC, a trusted expert in siding and gutter repairs, combined the most common types of siding into this post. You’ll get a general concept of the types of siding that are available for your home, as well as how much each one might cost.
Budget-Friendly Options
Here are some entry-level options that won’t break the bank but will get the job done:
-
Vinyl – Vinyl siding is durable, low-maintenance, and does not require painting. Despite the fact that manufacturers are producing vinyl siding that looks like wood, it still lacks realism.
-
Engineered Wood – Wood fiber and resin are combined to create engineered wood. The material is strong and comes in several styles. However, because it is so new, its long-term durability hasn’t been fully tested.
-
Metal – Finally, metal siding is cheap. It resists fire, insects, and rot and requires little upkeep. Metal siding is a popular choice for outbuildings. But it can be scratched and dented.
Mid-Range Options
If you have an adequate budget for your siding replacement job, here are some of your options:
-
Wood – It’s a common siding option. It’s lovely, adaptable and simple to work with. However, it has several disadvantages, such as requiring more upkeep and being prone to insects.
-
Stucco – Stucco siding is noted for its weather resistance. It is also inexpensive, durable, and minimal maintenance. However, professional installation is required.
-
Fiber Cement –Fiber cement siding is made of cellulose, sand and cement and is rot, fire and insect-resistant. Like stucco siding, you’ll need a skilled siding and gutter guards installer for optimum results.
Premium Options
These are the best options that money can buy and you won’t go wrong with any material that you choose.
-
Brick – Brick siding is long-lasting, low-maintenance, rot and insect-resistant, and fire-resistant. In addition, it is available in a variety of colors, sizes, and textures. This material will keep your home safe for many years while also looking excellent.
-
Synthetic Stucco – Synthetic stucco is a multi-layered insulating covering. It resists cracking and is more energy efficient. However, it is less resilient and more prone to water damage, making it unsuitable for damp environments.
-
Synthetic Stone – Synthetic stone siding is made to look like real stone without the high expense. It’s also fireproof, bug-proof and low-maintenance. It is lighter than stone and hence easier to install.
