Is it OK to put siding over stucco?

• <div><p>It’s possible to install vinyl siding over stucco, and if the stucco is in decent condition, it’s unlikely you’ll run into any issues. However, if you see water damage or mold growth on your stucco, or you have ongoing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/eifs-stucco-problems.htm">problems with your EIFS siding</a>, including leaks, it’s best to remove the stucco first. This will reduce the risk of mold growth and pest infestation, allowing your pro to access and replace any damaged sheathing.</p></div>

What are the alternatives to board and batten siding?

• <div><p>Board and batten siding refers to the look and style of the installation rather than the material itself. You can install board and batten siding whether you choose vinyl, wood, fiber cement, or metal as your material. Among other popular siding styles to consider are <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-is-clapboard-siding.htm">clapboard siding</a>, stucco, shake siding, and log cabin siding. Stone, stone veneer, brick, and brick veneer are considered high-end alternatives that can help maximize ROI and curb appeal.</p></div>

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 I choose siding combinations that look good together?

• <div><p>Choosing siding combinations that look good together comes down to finding textures and colors that complement each other. You want some contrast so that your home doesn&rsquo;t look boring or too uniform, but you also want the materials to play off of each other so that each makes the other stand out. It&rsquo;s a good idea to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-hire-siding-contractor.htm">hire a siding professional</a> to create 3D renderings for you so you can get a sense of what your home will look and feel like before you get started. </p></div>

Q: What is the best siding to put over stucco?

• <div><p>Fiber cement siding is the best siding to install over stucco because it offers many of the same benefits for homes where stucco is common, including fire resistance, insect resistance, and good insulation. Fiber cement siding is also rigid, so it won&rsquo;t warp over time like vinyl siding might if installed over furring strips.</p></div>

Allen and his team did a fabulous job on our house, garage, and shed. We had 1970s aluminum siding that needed replacing. Allen's quote was actually affordable - about $21K - (other contractors wanted much more for the same job and most tried to sell us Hardie Board, which we didn't want). He...
