Q: Is engineered wood siding less expensive than wood?

• <div><p>The <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/wood-siding-costs.htm">cost of wood siding</a> varies by the type of wood. Engineered wood siding tends to be in the middle of typical costs (<b>$3 to $7 per square foot </b>for materials). Hardwoods, for instance, can cost <b>$5 to $20 per square foot </b>for materials alone, but cedar wood can be as cheap as <b>$3 per square foot</b>.</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: How do I estimate how much siding I need?

• <div><p>You can calculate the required square footage of siding you need by measuring the height and width of your home&rsquo;s rectangular exterior walls. For the triangular-shaped gable walls, measure the height from the ground to the tallest gable point to make sure you have enough for good coverage. Once you have combined the totals for each wall, add another 10% to account for wasted materials. It&rsquo;s also good to have extra siding on hand to tackle <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/wood-siding-repair.htm">wood siding repair</a> down the road.</p></div>

Q: How do you know when siding needs to be replaced?

• <div><p>Signs that you need to replace your siding include siding that&rsquo;s warping, bubbling, or cracking; signs of rot or mold growth; fading, peeling, or chipped siding or paint; or siding that&rsquo;s separating from the exterior of your house. Failing to replace your siding when it&rsquo;s damaged can lead to moisture problems or structural damage, so promptly repair or replace siding as soon as you notice any of these signs. </p></div>

Q: Is composite siding better than vinyl?

• <div><p>While vinyl is the less expensive option, composite siding has been known to be more durable than vinyl. In addition, because it is made from recycled materials, it is a more ecologically-friendly choice. Composite siding is also more luxurious looking and comes in a much wider range of styles and colors.</p></div>

"My wife and I needed a new patio door and we got quotes and estimates from 3 other competitors. Not only did Hanson beat the competitions prices, but the entire process was fantastic. Our salesman Michael Kaechele walked us through the entire process and made us feel like friends rather than clients. Start to finish the entire Hanson team was outstanding. The only downside is the service was so great they make me want to replace my windows sooner! Can?t wait to work with them again!"
