Is clapboard siding insulating?

• <div><p>Traditional clapboard siding, particularly with panels made from wood, is not a significant insulator on its own. However, you can keep your home cooler in summer and warmer with "insulated clapboard siding," which is a type of vinyl clapboard siding with a built-in foam insulation. Consult a local siding contractor to determine whether insulated siding is right for your home.</p></div>

Q: What are the benefits of mixing siding styles?

• <div><p>The most significant benefit to mixing siding styles is the visual appeal and intrigue you can create. Multiple colors or textures will make your home stand out, boosting curb appeal and home value. Mixing siding styles also lets you take advantage of the high resale value of stone without having to pay the high cost of covering your entire home with it. Coupling stone and vinyl means pairing affordability and value. Plus, you&rsquo;ll often only have to pay for a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/partial-siding-replacement.htm">partial siding replacement</a> when it comes time to replace one of the materials.</p></div>

Q: Can you use a nail gun on clapboard siding?

• <div><p>You should use a siding nail gun for siding installation, but if you don&rsquo;t have one you can use a framing nailer instead, if the nails are long enough to firmly attach to the clapboard siding. However, framing requires longer nails that join lumber together. In that instance, siding nails will not be enough.</p></div>

Q: Can you put new siding over clapboards?

• <div><p>You can put new siding over clapboards, but it&rsquo;s not recommended. Some sidings, like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/vinyl-siding-guide.htm">vinyl siding</a>, can go over clapboards with sheathing like a foam layer in between. However, it&rsquo;s best to remove clapboard siding if you plan on replacing it with new siding. Burying wood clapboards underneath new siding can create risks of rot and mold, or hidden insect damage. It can also create warping issues over time. Removing clapboards allows you to properly install a new sheathing, as well as clean up the exterior wall and look for any signs of damage.</p></div>

Q: What siding colors look best with red brick?

• <div><p>When choosing a siding color to complement your home&rsquo;s red brick exterior, start by examining the shade and undertone of the brick. Some have a muted rust color that pairs well with a light or dark gray paint color, while more red-toned bricks look best against light neutrals like off-white or beige.</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...
