How long is the life span of aluminum siding?

• <div><p>Aluminum is a durable siding material that can last for 30 to 45 years depending on factors like your climate, how well it’s maintained, and the quality of the aluminum. However, the siding’s appearance is likely to deteriorate much faster than its structure, especially if it’s painted, so you should clean it annually and repaint it when it starts to chip to maintain its look. </p></div>

Can homeowners' insurance cover rotted siding?

• <div><p>While <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/will-homeowners-insurance-cover-water-damage.htm">homeowners' insurance</a> can include coverage for siding, general wear and tear of siding is not covered. If your siding is rotting—especially because you haven’t kept up with proper siding maintenance—replacement siding will likely not be covered by your homeowners' insurance policy. Instead, insurance generally covers siding repair or replacement if your siding has been damaged by extreme weather, vandalism, fire, or some kind of collision, like by a vehicle.</p></div>

Q: How many years can I expect wood siding to last?

• <div><p>Wood siding lasts anywhere from 20 to 40 years on average. This can vary greatly depending on the type of wood, weather conditions, and how well you maintain your siding. For instance, hot, wet climates may shorten the life span of wood by exposing it to UV rays, mold, and pests. Staying on top of painting, staining, and repairing your wood siding can add years to its life span by protecting it from the elements.</p></div>

Q: What is the cheapest way to side a house?

• <div><p>The cheapest and most inexpensive way to side a house is to use vinyl. Vinyl is very low-cost but may not last as long as natural materials or metal. However, it often lasts the same length of time the owners plan on living in the home (about 20 to 40 years). Certain types of vinyl siding, like vinyl shake, can be as low as $3 per square foot, but ask a siding pro if the lowest-cost option is the best material for your particular home. </p></div>

Q: What is the difference between steel siding and aluminum siding?

• <div><p>Steel and aluminum are two types of metal siding that are commonly used for residential and commercial buildings, but the materials have specific differences. Typically, steel is heavier and sturdier, fending off scratches and dents, while aluminum is lightweight and more prone to damage. Cost is another differentiating factor, as steel is more expensive than <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cost-aluminum-siding.htm">aluminum siding cost</a>.</p></div>

We hired Tom and his crew to repair/replace an old wood deck attached to our barn, replace siding and a sliding glass door. He worked fast, was knowledgeable, and did quality work. He came out promptly to give an estimate. The only downside was that he wasn't able to start the job as quickly...
