Types of Siding for Homes: Vinyl, Wood, Fiber Cement, Metal & Stone

We offer a variety of options, from classic vinyl to natural stone. Each type of siding has its unique advantages and can be customized in different textures, colors, and styles to perfectly match your project.

Popular Siding Types for Your Home

Choose the perfect siding option for your home, considering style, durability, and maintenance. Explore our offerings to find the best fit for your project.

Vinyl Siding

Vinyl is the most cost-effective siding we install: $4.50–$8 per sq ft installed, no painting, no sealing. Modern panels hold color for decades and handle PA freeze-thaw cycles without cracking. Insulated profiles add a foam backing that cuts heat loss through wall studs. Lifespan: 20–40 years.

Wood Siding

Natural cedar and pine deliver character no synthetic material matches — clapboard, shakes, or board-and-batten, stained or painted to order. The trade-off is upkeep: resealing every 3–5 years in our humid summers. Best for historic homes and owners who value authenticity over low maintenance. Lifespan: 20–40 years with care.

Fiber Cement Siding

Fiber cement is a pressed blend of cement, sand, and cellulose: it doesn’t burn, rot, warp, or feed insects. Class A fire rating can qualify for homeowner’s insurance discounts. At $8.50–$14.50 per sq ft installed, it costs more than vinyl upfront but outlasts it. Lifespan: 40–50 years.

Metal Siding

Aluminum and steel panels suit contemporary and industrial designs: fire-resistant, fully recyclable, and nearly maintenance-free. Aluminum shrugs off coastal humidity in South Jersey; steel takes impact better inland. Lifespan: 40+ years.

Stone Siding

Manufactured stone veneer delivers the highest curb-appeal impact per square foot — most clients use it on facades, entryways, and accent walls rather than whole-house coverage. Heavy and unforgiving of installation errors, it’s strictly a professional-install material. Lifespan: 50+ years.

James Hardie Siding

James Hardie is the fiber cement brand we install: HardiePlank lap siding and HardieShingle, engineered for our climate zone and backed by the manufacturer’s 30-year non-prorated warranty. ColorPlus factory finish carries its own 15-year finish warranty — no repainting for over a decade.
