Composite Siding

Composite siding is an aesthetically pleasing, long-lasting option for homeowners who want to spruce up their home’s exterior and ensure its longevity. This low-maintenance alternative is often more affordable than natural wood and can be customized to fit any desired look and feel.

Additionally, some manufactured boards come primed and/or pre-painted and available in varying colors and textures to automatically enhance the style of a home. Plus, the durability of composite siding and the material’s resistance to UV keep it looking fresh for longer.

Choose from several composite siding options to complement the beautiful built-in features of your home or switch up the design completely to create a whole new look.

Benefits of Composite Siding

Along with its durability and low-maintenance appeal, there are several other advantages to consider when deciding if composite siding is the best choice for your home.

Longer Lifespan

Composite siding typically has a 20- to 30-year lifespan. The boards are resistant to rot, pests, and weather since they do not expand and contract as with other materials. Furthermore, the boards’ thickness provides better insulation compared to vinyl siding, which can help reduce noise infiltration. 

Easy to Customize

Brands like Boral TruExterior™ Siding offer primed, ready-to-paint composite siding boards to help provide a headstart on renovations. There are several brands and selections to choose from when transforming the aesthetic of your home through composite siding.

Enhances Curb Appeal

Composite siding can instantly elevate a home’s exterior and value. It delivers a sleek finish for a modern appeal with minimal maintenance required. With various board colors, sizes, and textures to choose from, homeowners can achieve a final look unique to their vision.

Simplified Installation

Lightweight boards and a hidden interlocking system, such as with Sylvanix Cladding, allow for streamlined installation to create a distinctive finish. Highlight a rustic appeal and warmth with a classic wood appearance. Or, transform your home’s exterior to present an elegant, coastal appeal. And, whether you opt for a uniform board size and direction or want to get creative with board placement, it’s easy to piece together your preferred look.

Composite Siding Maintenance

Though there are benefits to all types of siding, composite is popular among homeowners who prefer less maintenance to preserve their homes’ appearance. Switching to composite siding can preserve the attractiveness of your home’s exterior for decades to come.

It requires minimal upkeep, though for general cleaning, simply use warm, soapy water to gently rub away any dirt or stains with a long-handled sponge or brush. It’s best to avoid harsh cleaning with chemicals or high-pressure power washing to not damage the exterior.
