What Are Your Options for New Siding?
July 3, 2024

Do your current home upgrades include siding? If so, you have a range of materials to choose from based on your preferred aesthetics, ease of installation, and durability. Here are some of the best options from your local siding contractors.


Wood

You can't go wrong with wood, a sustainable natural material that can make any home look rustic inside and out. Cedar is a popular option used by siding companies. It's easy to repair your wood siding, whether it's in the form of boards or shingles. In our experience, with proper care, your cedar siding can last for decades. Compared to other materials, it doesn't take long to install wood siding. Your siding contractors can do repairs as needed in sections without having to pull down an entire wall of siding.

Vinyl

Vinyl is a very durable material that is highly resistant to the elements, including insects. According to The Spruce, vinyl siding can last 20 to 60 years. Your vinyl siding can mimic other popular materials like wood and comes in several colors. If you're worried about peeling or chipping paint, you don't have to be with vinyl siding, as the color comes baked in. Therefore, when you want to change the color, you can always replace the siding itself without hiring a separate painter.

Steel

Steel is known for its protective qualities, which is why it's frequently used in construction. However, you can also use this metal as part of your siding. Because of the heavy barrier it provides, it's great for insulating your home, keeping it comfortable, and reducing your energy bills. Like any other metal, it’s highly recyclable.

Aluminum

If you love metal, aluminum is a popular siding option as it's lightweight but still sturdy and durable. You also have a material that pests and mold can't penetrate. It's highly resistant to different weather conditions, and it takes paint pretty well. Your local siding contractors have several materials for you to consider. When you're ready to upgrade your home this year with new siding, you can choose from metal like steel or aluminum, go rustic with wood, or mimic the appearance of wood with vinyl. These materials have a range of protective qualities, durability, and color options. To learn more about the siding choices, contact our team at DECA Improvements today.
