"When I met with the two salespeople from Universal Windows Direct of Boise (NOW Remodeling), I settled with this company because of the high-end, insulated siding they offered me. I also requested octagon gable vents. When the materials arrived to my home, the siding was not insulated. I called the production manager and he told me my contract listed the lower-end siding. Unfortunately, I did sign the contract trusting what was discussed was listed. I had not realize the siding name on the contract was the lower-end siding. The company did work with me to resolve the issue by giving me the insulation and gable vents at no added cost. I feel the salespeople, the production manager and the subcontractor installer need to talk with one another. The company also needs to add a follow up call to the costumer to verify what was requested prior to ordering the material. The customer is not familiar with the names of the siding or terms used and what should be listed on the contract. I thought it was odd that the installer asked me for the color that I selected because that was not ever written on the contract."

Siding questions, answered by experts

You may only need to repaint fiber cement siding every decade or so, but you should clean it every six to 12 months, depending on your local climate. First, wash with a garden hose or similar low-pressure device (not a high-pressure washer, which can damage the material) to remove dirt and any large debris. Then, gently wipe down the surface with a soft brush or cloth in a side-to-side motion, following the grain of the fiber cement.

The clapboard exposure, also called the reveal, refers to the amount of clapboard visible in the siding. Clapboards always overlap slightly, but some overlap more than others. The exposure is the vertical measurement of the board that remains visible as the clapboard is installed.

When repairing clapboard siding, it’s important that you match the exposure of your current clapboards. You may want to take a measurement of the specific exposure on your siding for reference in repairs.

You should install your cedar shake siding with the rough side exposed. The smooth side is less resistant to weathering over the years, and the rough side gives your home a more rugged aesthetic. The rough side also takes to paint better and ensures any paint job will last longer before needing to be redone.

You should restain or refinish your home's cedar siding every three to seven years to maintain its appearance and ensure maximum protection. The precise frequency depends on several factors, including your local climate, the siding's exposure to severe weather like direct sunlight, rain, and wind, the quality of the initial stain application, the type of stain used, and the condition of the wood.

Homeowners in harsh climates with high humidity and significant direct sunlight should plan on restaining every three years, while those in milder locations can wait up to seven years. For the longest-lasting protection in particularly harsh environments, consider using an opaque stain.

If you're looking for a lower-maintenance alternative, vinyl or aluminum siding are options to consider. Although their installation cost may be higher, they don't require as much upkeep over time, which can provide more value, especially in areas with excessive rainfall or high humidity.

Costs vary based on home size, siding quality, labor, and any necessary repairs to underlying structures. High-grade materials and insulation options tend to influence the overall expense.
