Q: Is concrete log siding the same thing as fiber cement siding?

• <div><p>Concrete log siding is not the same as <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-fiber-cement-siding.htm">fiber cement siding</a>. Fiber cement siding is made from a mixture of cement and cellulose fibers, while GFRC is made from cement, glass fibers, and polymers. The materials are similar in their durability, longevity, and curb appeal, and the main difference is that concrete log siding is available in more styles that resemble traditional log siding. Fiber cement is also less expensive, with materials costing around half what you&rsquo;d pay for concrete log siding.</p></div>

Q: What should I consider when choosing siding replacement options?

• <div><p>You should consider a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-different-house-siding.htm">siding replacement material</a> that meets your expectations for budget, durability, and if you want to complete the siding project yourself. Some materials are better than others in certain climates and easier to install for beginners. If you&rsquo;re unsure which material suits your home, check with a local contractor for guidance.</p></div>

Q: What maintenance is required for vinyl siding?

• <div><p>Little maintenance is required beyond periodic washing with a garden hose to remove dirt. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or pressure washers that might damage the siding.</p></div>

Q: How much is siding per square?

• <div><p>For the materials alone, a square of siding costs an average of $600, but prices can range from $100 to $3,000, depending on the material. Vinyl siding costs toward the lower end of that range, while real brick or stone siding costs closer to the higher end. Keep in mind that many boxes of siding contain two squares, enough to cover 200 square feet, so you may need to double your cost if you only need one square. </p></div>

Q: What are the alternatives to a stucco house?

• <div><p>Many people looking for an alternative to stucco consider fiber cement, stone veneer, brick, stone, and vinyl. Wood is another potentially affordable option, but it requires more maintenance than stucco, so most homeowners who like the look and minimal siding maintenance of stucco opt for brick or stone. There are many different siding options, so you&rsquo;ll need to weigh your priorities in terms of budget, aesthetics, insulation, and other factors.</p></div>

The installer did a very good job. The only hang up was the bracket for my shower seat. The package was labeled for a right side bracket, but a left side bracket was inside the page. It was mislabeled at the warehouse. Certainly not the installers fault. Bath Planet scheduled a time to come...

Really nice young man and did what he said he would do. Maybe a bit on the high priced side but they got AC fixed the same day.

Very satisfied. The only downside was after saying they would begin the job in 3 weeks, it was over 2 Months before they began. Once they began it only took a crew of 8 2 days to complete siding a house, garage and shed. Very hard workers! Very nice job!

He's told us what's sounded necessary, and what a fair price should be. His aid is like having an expert translator and advocate at your side. Never asked for a dime. Some businesses have customers. Astro Auto has friends.
