WHAT IS THE BEST TYPE OF SIDING FOR MY VANCOUVER HOME?
There are many factors that determine what the best siding option is for your home in the Metro Vancouver area. Your personal preference is an important factor, as our team can help install many forms of siding on almost any home. The local climate requires durable types of siding such as James Hardie, Vinyl, Cedar, Aluminum, Steel or Stone.
DOES WOOD SIDING ROT?
Wood is most likely to rot if not cared for properly. Continuous dampness and/or sunlight are wood siding's biggest enemy; it requires a well maintained coating of paint or stain to keep it at its best. But it cannot last forever.
Siding Vancouver has a real depth of experience when it comes to wood siding, and we would be happy to assist you in updating your siding or choosing a completely different system.
I’M ON A TIGHT BUDGET. WHAT TYPE OF SIDING CAN YOU RECOMMEND?
There are a range of price points when it comes to siding systems, and the size of your home will determine how far your budget can take you. In general, vinyl products tend to be the most affordable option, as they require less maintenance in the long run and cost less to install than most alternatives.
I HAVE BEEN BROWSING THE INTERNET AND I HAVE FOUND HOMES WITH SIDING THAT I LIKE. I CAN’T TELL WHAT TYPE OF SIDING IT IS. CAN YOU HELP?
From a distance, some types of siding can appear similar, but in reality they can have very different benefits and drawbacks. Our team at Siding Vancouver would be happy to help you determine what type of siding would be right for your home.
HOW OFTEN DOES SIDING NEED TO BE REPLACED?
This is a very tough question to answer as it widely depends on what type of siding you have currently and how well it has been maintained over time. If you take good care of your siding by doing proper and regular maintenance, many siding systems should last the life of your home.
