Siding

As with windows there are many siding manufacture offerings in the marketplace today.

Your home’s siding is a very important part of your home’s performance and energy efficiency. Certainly, speaks to the curb appeal, but it can put the home at risk of moisture infiltration, mold growth and increased energy costs by allowing air to infiltrate into your home’s exterior walls and other spaces. Severna Park Exteriors will perform a professional energy audit (air test) on your home before recommending a siding solution. This way we can gauge the increase in home performance based on our test data.

Popular Types of Siding

Vinyl siding

This is the most cost effective and easy to maintain siding solution on the market today. With so many features and color options available. You can also have vinyl siding that is insulated which will increase the energy efficiency of your home.

The technology with siding has changed dramatically, even in the last five years. With every vinyl siding manufacture on the planet competing to offer the best product, this is a win/win solution for every homeowner when considering new or replacement siding for their home.

Wood siding

Commonly used for bungalow, Cape Cod and cottage exteriors, wood siding offers a rich look and is durable if maintained properly. If you are attracted to this look keep in mind that it requires periodic maintenance (chalking and painting or staining to prevent weather damage) and is susceptible to insect or rodent attacks. Depending on maintenance, your rich wood siding can last from 10 to sometimes 100 years.

Wood siding comes in clapboard (also known as lap or bevel siding) as well as shakes and shingles. Clapboard siding uses planks of wood installed horizontally with an upper piece that overlaps the lower piece. Western red cedar and redwood, woods known for being attractive and durable, are considered the best choices.

Severna Park Exteriors is looking forward to being of service and hope you will consider us for your next project.
