Here are some common types of siding you can choose from:

• Stone veneer siding: This type is siding is made from stone – making it the most durable among all types of building materials. Examples are: limestone granite and slate among others. Since these can be expensive, the more affordable choice are precast stone veneers & facings.




• Stucco siding: This type of siding is cement, water and inert materials (sand & lime) based. Among synthetic and quality synthetic stuccos, the latter is more durable. With some tint, they dont need paint anymore.




• Wood clapboard siding: This type of siding is the traditional solid wood siding we grew up seeing. Examples are: pine, cedar, redwood, spruce and cypress. They can be stained instead of painted. They are known to last.




• Cement fiber siding or Hardi-plank siding: This type of siding can look like stucco, wood or masonry. The most durable brand names are HardiPanel and HardiPlank. This is the best option for those who want to project the look of authentic wood but with lesser maintenance. It is also termite-proof, fire proof and the usual warranty is up to 50 years.

 

• Cedar shingle siding: This type of siding is made of natural cedar with shingles or shakes that come in stained brown, gray and other earthen colors. They require less maintenance as compared to wood clapboard. It is better to stain them than to paint them.




• Brick & brick veneer siding: This siding is made from fired clay. It comes in different earthy colors. It is a bit expensive but it is known to last centuries. An alternative may be quality brick veneers which are also durable and attractive; however, they dont last long as compared to solid brick.




• Seamless steel This type of siding can resist shrinking as well as bulging during temperature changes because it is very strong. Modern homes usually use corrugated steel.

 

• Engineered wood siding: This type of siding is made from wood products as well as other materials. Examples are: hardboard, veneered plywood and OSB or oriented strand board. They are very easy and cheap to install. They appear more natural than aluminum or vinyl.

 

• Vinyl siding: This type is made from polyvinyl chloride or PVC plastic. They dont flake or rot. They are cheaper and easier to install. They can also crack, grow dingy and fade. They also pose environmental risks.

 

• Aluminum siding: This type of siding is usually offered by builders as the alternative to vinyl. They are easy to maintain but they are only fairly durable. They can fade and dent; however, they wont crack. They are also fireproof and not harmful to the health and environment.




• Vinyl coatings: This type of siding is made from polymers & resins. They are not made from vinyl; theyre just coated to look like vinyl. When they dry up, they become as thick as credit cards.
