"I had damage from wind and raccoons on the soffit, fascia, and roof of my house. Laz Call Construction did a great job repairing all 3. Some other contractors I contacted didn’t do small repair jobs. Laz Construction came out in less than a week after I contacted them."

"I can’t say enough great things about John Garelli and the team at Buzz Home Pros! From start to finish, the experience was top-notch. They recently completed both my roof and siding, and the transformation is incredible—my home looks brand new! John was responsive, honest, and easy to communicate with throughout the entire process. He took the time to explain everything, gave me a fair and transparent estimate, and made sure I felt confident every step of the way. His crew was professional, respectful of my property, and incredibly efficient—everything was done on time and cleaned up beautifully. The quality of the work speaks for itself. The attention to detail and craftsmanship are outstanding. I’ve had several neighbors stop to compliment the new look, and I feel proud every time I pull into the driveway. If you’re looking for a company that delivers great work, fair pricing, and excellent customer service, I highly recommend Buzz Home Pros and John Garelli. They went above and"

Siding questions, answered by experts

Brick and stone are the most durable and longest-lasting siding materials, often lasting for 100 years or more with proper maintenance. Copper is another material known to last over 100 years, though it can develop a greenish patina over time. Zinc is a metal siding that can last 80-100 years. While these options are the most expensive, they offer superior value and longevity. For a more affordable yet durable choice, stucco can last 50 to 80 years in dry climates. Fiber cement siding is another excellent middle ground, offering a lifespan of 50 years or more with low maintenance at a lower cost than stone or brick.

You should plan to stain or refinish your home's cedar siding every three to seven years to maintain its appearance and provide maximum protection, though some estimates suggest a range of four to six years. The exact frequency depends on several factors, including your local climate, exposure to severe weather like direct sunlight, rain, and wind, the quality of the initial stain application, the type of stain used, and the overall condition and quality of the wood.

For homes in harsh climates with high humidity and significant sun exposure, you should plan on staining as often as every three years, while those in milder locations may only need to do so every seven years. For the longest-lasting protection in particularly harsh climates, consider using an opaque stain.

If you are looking for a lower-maintenance alternative, you might consider vinyl or aluminum siding. While the initial installation cost can be higher, they do not require as much upkeep and can offer more value over time, especially in areas with excessive rainfall or high humidity.

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 cannot install clapboard siding on a bare, unprepared surface. Clapboard siding requires a clean, sturdy base made from plywood or similar materials, sometimes called backerboard. Then, it needs an underlayment or sheathing, a moisture membrane to help protect the exterior wall.

Note that sometimes clapboard siding is caulked as it’s installed for additional protection. We don’t suggest this: Caulking the siding can trap moisture inside the clapboards and lead to moisture damage over time. The siding needs some space to “breathe,” especially in rainy weather.

The cost to install or replace brick or stone siding generally ranges from $10 to $50 per square foot. The final price depends on several factors, including the specific material type, local labor rates, and any necessary preparation work, such as removing old siding. For example, different types of stone have varying costs per square foot: natural stone ($4.50–$35), stone veneer ($11–$13), faux stone ($6–$9), and cultured or manufactured stone ($5–$8).
