Q: How often should you stain cedar siding?

• <div><p>You should stain your home's cedar siding every three to seven years for maximum protection and to maintain its appearance. Homeowners who live in harsh climates with high humidity and lots of direct sunlight should plan staining every three years, while those who live in milder locations can plan on seven. In particularly harsh climates, consider using an opaque stain variety for the longest-lasting protection. </p></div>

Q: What is the life span of composite siding?

• <div><p>Composite siding, with proper care, can last 30 years and sometimes more. Because its color has a tendency to fade, you might want to re-paint it every five years or so. Before purchasing composite siding, check the manufacturer&rsquo;s warranty&mdash;you should have a long-term warranty to back up the quality of the product.</p></div>

Q: Can you put new wood siding over old wood siding?

• <div><p>There are several highly durable types of siding that you can build right on top of without removing it, with wood being one of them, provided it's in excellent condition. However, a common reason for siding replacement is to eliminate materials that are in poor condition, making installing new wood siding over old not recommended. Additionally, the cost of adding siding over existing siding can increase costs to between $7 and $13 per square foot.</p></div>

Q: How big does hail have to be to damage siding?

• <div><p>Hail as small as 3/4 inch (about the size of a penny) can cause damage to your siding. When hail reaches 1 inch in size, you can expect to see more cracks, chips, and holes, and hail that&rsquo;s 1 and 1/4 to 1 and 1/2 inches around will cause significant damage. If you see hail that&rsquo;s 1 and 1/2 inches to 2 inches or more in size, the damage is likely to be extensive and possibly even dangerous.</p></div>

Q: Is Hardie board cheaper than vinyl siding?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/fiber-cement-siding-vs-vinyl-siding.htm">Hardie board is more expensive than vinyl siding</a>. Vinyl siding costs $3 to $12 per square foot, on average, with cost skewing toward the lower end of that range. Hardie board siding costs $7 to $18 per square foot, depending on the style, color, and trim. However, it lasts twice as long and often looks nicer, meaning you&rsquo;ll see a higher bump in your home value and greater curb appeal from Hardie board.</p></div>
