Wood Siding
Wood siding is an excellent option for any home because of the customization ability of the material. Unlike other siding materials, you can finish the material with paints, oils, or the wood’s natural color. Wood has the advantage of being very durable and eco-friendly when compared to other siding materials. Depending on the manufacturer, maintenance, and region climate, you can expect wood siding to last 10-50 years.
While wood siding has many great customizable and environmentally friendly features, you will find more extensive maintenance with this material. You will have to treat your wood siding regularly to prevent insects, and lower fire risks, along with the regular reapply of choice color finish.
Vinyl Siding
Vinyl siding is a great inexpensive option for any home and is installed on more than 30% of homes in the United States. This material is customizable and requires very little maintenance. Vinyl siding is also very easy to install and repair, leading to lower maintenance and repair costs. Vinyl siding will never fade, rot, warp or crack unless an object damages the siding. Depending on the brand and regional climate, you can expect vinyl siding to last 50 years.
Vinyl is an excellent option for homeowners who want a beautiful product at a low price. Vinyl has many incredible benefits, but it is not as durable as other siding materials. A fallen branch or heavy hail could damage the material leading to higher repair and replacement costs.
Fiber Cement
Fiber Cement siding is a new product hitting the siding industry and is rapidly gaining popularity with homeowners across the nation. Fiber Cement is a material made of a combination of cement, sand, and cellulose fibers and is generally designed to mimic the look of wood siding. Depending on the manufacturer, regional weather, and maintenance, you can expect this product to last 50+ years.
Fiber Cement can be thought of as a hybrid form of wood and vinyl siding. It has the durability and appearance of wood and the lower cost and maintenance of vinyl siding. The upkeep of fiber cement siding is very minimal, and it is not susceptible to termites or other insects that can damage wood materials.
