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: Is stucco considered siding or cladding?

• <div><p>Stucco is considered a <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/cladding-types.htm">type of cladding</a> because it includes a built-in ventilation layer, a weatherproof membrane beneath that, and, often, a layer of insulation to improve building efficiency. The multiple layers of stucco&mdash;the scratch coat, the brown coat, and the finish coat&mdash;also create a more complex building membrane, so it&rsquo;s more accurate to call it cladding. However, homeowners and contractors alike refer to stucco as siding.</p></div>

Q: Why don’t people use aluminum siding anymore?

• <div><p>Contrary to popular belief, people still do use aluminum siding for their homes&mdash;but it&rsquo;s much less popular than it was in the mid-1900s. The introduction of various <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/types-vinyl-siding.htm">types of vinyl siding</a> as an affordable option reduced the demand for aluminum, which is prone to scratching and denting and needs to be repainted every five to 10 years. Given the abundance of <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/siding-experts-discuss-best-types-and-cost.htm">house siding options</a>, especially newer and more popular types like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-stone-veneer.htm">stone veneer siding</a>, aluminum siding has simply just fallen out of favor.</p></div>

Q: How do I remove mildew from wood siding?

• <div><p>Mildew grows into porous wood, making it more difficult to remove than regular dirt (and more destructive). We suggest using a dedicated mildew and mold fungicide to remove mildew, which is found in any local home improvement store. Apply a dose of the fungicide to the siding and leave to work according to the instructions, usually for an hour or two. Then wash it thoroughly away and scrub the spot again. Repeat the process if necessary. If nothing is removing the mildew stains, you should plan on removing those clapboard planks in time, as their damage could cause future problems.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best cleaner to use on wood siding?

• <div><p>Avoid toxic chemicals that can leach into nearby lawns, as well as household ingredients like vinegar that can ruin paint and sealants. Instead, look for a very light detergent or a dedicated exterior siding cleaner. In a pinch, you can use a basic dish or laundry soap, but we suggest sticking with a dedicated cleaner.</p><p>If your siding is struggling with algae or moss, which indicates moisture issues, look for an outdoor cleaner that&rsquo;s specifically designed to clear moss and algae stains. This is also a sign that you need to seal your clapboard against further problems.</p></div>
