Is clapboard siding insulating?

• <div><p>Traditional clapboard siding, particularly with panels made from wood, is not a significant insulator on its own. However, you can keep your home cooler in summer and warmer with "insulated clapboard siding," which is a type of vinyl clapboard siding with a built-in foam insulation. Consult a local siding contractor to determine whether insulated siding is right for your home.</p></div>

Q: How do siding contractors determine price?

• <div><p>Siding pros typically charge by the square foot when providing estimates for siding projects. They&rsquo;ll take the material cost and add in an estimated labor fee, and some contractors will include an additional upcharge to account for profit, waste, and unexpected issues. Another important price factor your pro will consider is the quality of your home&rsquo;s current siding, which they&rsquo;ll need to remove, and your home&rsquo;s sheathing. If pros have to make any additional repairs to your home&rsquo;s exterior, the added labor will also influence your final siding cost.</p></div>

Q: Do vertical and horizontal siding come in the same materials?

• <div><p>Yes, vertical and horizontal siding both come in the same materials, including wood, vinyl, aluminum, and engineered wood. The material you choose can significantly affect your siding&rsquo;s overall price, lifespan, insulation properties, and maintenance costs. </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: Why does wood siding need an air gap?

• <div><p>Wood siding requires an air gap behind it to allow water to drain out, and for air circulation and venting to allow humid air to escape and keep the material from rotting due to moisture. </p></div>
