Q: What’s under aluminum siding?

• <div><p>Many people remove aluminum siding to get to the wood underneath, allowing them to paint, stain, or finish the wood to give the home a brand-new aesthetic. With that in mind, you find plywood and related types of wood underneath aluminum siding, but you also run into fiber cement board, strand board, and a diverse array of other building materials. It depends on the original design of the house. </p></div>

Q: What are popular alternatives to metal siding?

• <div><p>For homeowners looking for a less expensive alternative to metal siding, the most popular choice is vinyl siding. At just <b>$3 to $12</b> per square foot, vinyl siding can cost much less than some types of metal siding. Other popular alternatives include fiber cement and engineered wood. Consult a local siding contractor to determine which type of siding will work best for your home.</p></div>

Q: How long does cedar siding last?

• <div><p>Similar to other <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-wood-siding.htm">types of wood siding</a> consisting of natural materials, cedar siding should last <b>20 to 40 years</b>. However, the lifespan for any wood siding, including cedar, can be far shorter without the proper repair and maintenance work. Don&rsquo;t put off making repairs, or problems could worsen quickly. While you can repair minor holes and cracks in the siding shakes, rot and warping requires replacing the boards. </p></div>

Q: What is the best siding to put over stucco?

• <div><p>Fiber cement siding is the best siding to install over stucco because it offers many of the same benefits for homes where stucco is common, including fire resistance, insect resistance, and good insulation. Fiber cement siding is also rigid, so it won&rsquo;t warp over time like vinyl siding might if installed over furring strips.</p></div>

Q: What siding has the least maintenance?

• <div><p>Fiber cement siding is one of the lowest-maintenance options. The material&rsquo;s formula is resistant to insect activities, moisture, and most physical impacts. Vinyl and aluminium siding is also fairly easy to upkeep. All these <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/low-maintenance-siding.htm">low-maintenance options</a> only require basic surface cleaning, caulking, and regular gutter maintenance to prevent water dams from forming. </p></div>
