Did you know?
From fiber cement to vinyl, there are several types of siding. While each offers unique advantages, they all offer advanced protection against weather and temperature fluctuations.
New siding also improves the energy efficiency of your home. While siding only offers a slight savings on your monthly energy bills, it will reduce wear on your HVAC systems. And extending the life of your air conditioner and heater is likely more valuable than seeing a huge reduction in energy usage.
Plus, most types of siding are virtually maintenance-free. Pressure washing your siding will keep your home looking great for decades. Otherwise, there is almost no upkeep.
In terms of return on investment, replacement siding is one of the most cost-effective home upgrades you can make. Depending on the siding material you choose, you can expect to add 75% to 95% of your siding installation costs to the value of your home. With an average cost of $9,500, replacement siding will increase your home’s value by as much as $9,000.
Compare Siding Replacement Options
Looking for quality replacement siding? For years, vinyl and aluminum siding were the only cost-effective options for more homeowners. And they are still popular choices for their durability and value.
However, there are several new and affordable types of siding that are increasingly in demand. Fiber cement and engineered wood are especially popular for their balance of cost and style.
Whether you are looking to get the best value for your dollar or are looking for the right style, our siding replacement guide makes it easy to choose the right option for your home and your budget.
The most popular option, vinyl siding is a durable and cost-effective option for protecting your home. It comes in a variety of lengths, widths, colors, and textures, offering the perfect balance between price and style. Very low maintenance, vinyl siding will last between 20 and 40 years. On average, you will spend between $2,500 and $15,00 on vinyl siding for your house.
Aluminum siding is another economical option, with whole-house installation ranging from $2,000 to $14,500. Available in many styles and colors, it resists insects, mold, and rust. Aluminum siding will last 40 or more years with only minor upkeep. Plus, you can paint it to give your home a new look.
Engineered wood siding looks similar to real wood but offers better durability and strength. Made of wood and synthetic materials, engineered wood siding is just as strong and less likely to rot. It comes in many different sizes and colors. You can also paint engineered wood siding, and it will last 20 to 30 years. However, it is among the more expensive options, with a total siding replacement cost of $3,500 to $18,000.
An increasingly popular option, fiber cement siding offers exceptional durability and weather resistance at a competitive price. Made from a wood pulp and Portland cement, it is manufactured in a variety of different sizes, colors, and styles. It can even mimic stone, wood, and brick textures. Although fiber cement siding costs $3,500 to $23,500, it will last 50 or more years.
Wood siding offers a classic and luxurious look for a competitive price. Although spruce, split oak, and pine are available, cedar siding is the most popular. It typically comes in either boards or shakes and is only sealed to protect the wood. However, you can stain or paint it as well. Although it lasts 20 to 40 years, it is among the most expensive options. The average cost of wood siding runs from $15,500 to $25,500 or more.
