Home improvements are expensive and time consuming, we all know that. Every homeowner wants to make sure they are making the best possible investments for the safety, functioning, aesthetics, and value of their homes. When you are researching any kind of home improvement, you want to speak to—and work with experts.
When it comes to redoing the siding on the exterior of your home, that is a major investment for a product you will live with for many years to come. (Although if you choose the right siding, it can be a very cost effective investment.) Colorado Siding has over twenty years experience with all types of siding installation, from the classic wood or cedar siding so popular in mountain communities, to the cutting edge, green James Hardie fiber cement siding.
How do you know which siding is best for your property? Here are some things to consider:
Do you live in a high wildfire area? If so, then neither wood siding or vinyl might be the best choice because the former is highly flammable and the latter is subject to melting at high heat.
Do you live in an area that frequently has gale force winds? (With or without the gales) You need a siding that can stand up to those winds. You certainly don’t want to come out of your house after a storm and find the exterior of your home pitted by hail or ripped apart by wind.
There are many considerations in choosing new Colorado siding. They differ from customer to customer, from area to area depending on the climate issues.
Cost might be the main concern for some. They need siding that’s sturdy but affordable. Durability and the amount of maintenance required might be foremost in another customer’s mind. Resistance to fire or other uncontrollable elements might be a consideration.
Whether or not the siding is made of green materials could be foremost in the minds of some homeowners.
How well it resists pests could be another factor determining one’s choice.
And let’s not forget, when it comes to Colorado siding, we love our homes and aesthetics factor into our decisions as well.
