Siding is an innovative way to protect the exterior of your walls from the harsh weather elements. Over the years, manufacturers have developed various types of siding that not only offer protection to walls but also add aesthetic value to the home’s exterior.
They are beautiful and serve their purpose at the same time. Depending on taste and choice, these are some of the most popular types:
- Stucco
Made of cement, sand, water, and lime, stucco siding is popular among stone and brick surface homes for its longevity, but only when maintained and installed appropriately.
- Stone, stone-veneer
This type of siding is a lot more expensive because of its durability and its ability to add richness and depth to the texture of the exterior of the home. Siding made of Stone-veneer is an inexpensive option that is available in synthetic and natural materials. They are long lasting and are easy to clean.
- Brick
Real brick is made from clay that has been fired and is guaranteed to last for a considerably long time.
However, it is usually expensive because of how complicated it is to install. It is available various textures and sizes and is the most ideal if you are aiming for an English cottage, Tudor or Colonial exterior.
Siding is a unique concept that enhances the look of your exterior, but it will only achieve its intended purpose when it is properly installed and inspected by a certified and licensed company.
