Frequently Asked Questions: Siding 

Here are some of the frequently asked questions we get about siding materials, replacements, maintenance, and more: 

What Is the Best Siding for a Home? 

Of course, the “best” siding for your home will depend on a variety of factors such as the climate you live in, your aesthetic preferences, and your budget. So, there’s no universal answer for what the best siding will be for your home, but what we can say is that you’ll find premium products when you turn to Green City Window Door & Siding, as we install vinyl, fiber cement, engineered wood, and composite siding. 

How Do You Properly Maintain Siding? 

Your siding maintenance requirements will vary depending on the material, but you can generally follow these guidelines to keep up with maintenance: regularly have your siding inspected, clean it on a routine basis, trim nearby plants that could cause damage or trap moisture, and repair any minor problems you encounter before they become more extensive. 

How Durable Is Vinyl Siding? 

Vinyl siding is known for its durability, as it resists cracking, chipping, warping, rotting, and deteriorating over time. With proper maintenance, it can last between 30 and 40 years. 

What Are the Benefits of Fiber Cement Siding? 

Fiber cement siding is a popular choice among homeowners for a variety of reasons, from its durability and weather resistance to the fact that it’s low maintenance and available in a plethora of eye-catching colors. 

How Much Does a Siding Installation Project Cost? 

The cost of your siding replacement project will ultimately vary on the scope of your project, as the size of your home will factor into it. Not to mention, the type of siding material you choose will determine the cost as well. If you’re interested in discussing what one of these projects might cost for your home, we’d invite you to schedule a consultation with us so we can discuss it further. 

Do I Have Siding Color Options? 

Of course! You’ll have plenty of eye-catching color options to choose from for your home no matter which of our siding materials you choose for your project. After all, we want you to feel like your siding replacement yields a level of curb appeal that lives up to your standards. 

What Are the Signs That I Need New Siding? 

There are plenty of signs to be aware of that will tell you when you need new siding. You’ll know a siding replacement is in order when you see warping, fading, or peeling, or when you notice mold and mildew growth on your home. Not to mention, increased energy bills can be another sign that your siding is no longer as energy efficient as it once was and now needs replacing.
