Exploring Vinyl Siding Alternatives

Vinyl siding has been a common type of siding – primarily because of its low cost.  But it certainly wasn’t designed for long-term performance. When you consider the sub-standard protection vinyl provides (not to mention its tawdry appearance and never-ending maintenance requirements), alternatives start to sound more and more appealing.

Popular alternatives to vinyl siding include:

• Wood, brick, and stone – These options are sturdy and attractive, but with such premium product comes a price point to match. They also require frequent upkeep in the form of painting, priming, and power washing.

• Fiber cement and stucco – These options are more visually appealing than vinyl siding, but they’re highly prone to water seepage. They also fade quickly after years of sun exposure begin to add up.

• Steel and seamless steel – These options offer the greatest level of protection against the elements, and aren’t as prone to warping, cracking, and peeling – even when the temperature swings dramatically from hot to cold.

The strength of this heavy-gauge, hot-dipped, G-90 galvanized steel siding extends far beyond the limits of vinyl, aluminum, and wood!
