Q: Can you transform siding that’s already on your home into shou sugi ban?

• <div><p>Yes, you can shou sugi ban existing siding, but it might pose a hazard to wooden structures, shouldn&rsquo;t involve treated wood, and must be done by a siding professional. You can not char wood on a house without first removing the boards, so it&rsquo;s a more complicated replacement project than other siding types.</p></div>

Q: What should I consider when installing shou sugi ban siding?

• <div><p>You should consider acclimating the wood for your shou sugi ban siding for around two weeks before installation to balance its moisture content and prevent warping. That additional step will ensure your materials are prepped for installation, avoiding complex repairs down the line. Consult your siding contractor for additional installation instructions for this specialized material.</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: Does mixing siding types affect home value?

• <div><p>Yes, mixing siding types will affect your home value, and in most cases, it will improve curb appeal and add to the value of your home. This is especially true if you get the benefit of the high-end appearance of brick or stone siding but save on siding costs by covering most of the exterior with more affordable vinyl or fiber cement.</p></div>

Q: What do you put under aluminum siding?

• <div><p>Traditionally, you place a layer of ⅜-inch foam board beneath aluminum siding. This gives you a smooth surface to which you can fasten the trim and siding. Beneath the foam board, you should have some kind of waterproof sheathing to further protect your home from water damage. It&rsquo;s possible this sheathing is already under your current siding.</p></div>
