Your Siding needs replaced if you have any of the following:
- Hail damage

Metal Siding
Metal siding can be an attractive alternative to wood, composite and vinyl options. Metal siding panels come in two versions: steel and aluminum. Either version can be used on homes, barns, outbuildings, or commercial properties. This green product has a high appeal for those who wish to use environmentally friendly products.
Metal siding requires extensive labor to install. It is durable and will last, on average, greater than 20 years. Along with increased durability comes an increased price tag. The price point depends on the quality of the steel and the panel style. Steel panels come in a variety of colors and resist fading. The panels will not turn chalky with exposure. Steel contains about 25% recycled content and is 100% recyclable when discarded. It requires a pressure washer for cleaning.
The most significant downside for steel is that it will rust. Rust-prevention coatings will help delay onset and amount of damage, but it will not prevent rust from cropping up eventually. Early detection and replacement of rusty panels can prevent the problem from causing widespread issues. Steel is not usually recommended for coastal regions, but it does well inland.
Wood Siding
Wood siding enhances any home no matter what style of property installed on. For many people, the look and feel of real wood is truly what makes a house a home. For that reason, in addition to improved durability with technological advancements like modified wood siding, it’s very common to find homes clad in natural wood siding.
Composite Siding
It has beautiful appearance; its finish is unique and makes it attractive, especially how it is made with patented interlocking joints that bring it out in a manner that you cannot see the nails used. The beauty also exists in the many 15 colors that it exists in. It is faster when it comes to installation as their boards are quickly reduced to size using standard tools for wood, as compared to fiber cement that has to be cut with diamond blades.
It has an excellent characteristic of having patented interlocking joints that ensures the boards are in line and safe to allow expansion and contraction when there are temperature changes in seasons. It also provides that there is no space between the boards. It does not need you to paint regularly in that its makers do not allow molds, mildew, and insects that can make it dirty. Its make also helps it withstand adverse weather making it damage resistant. Composite siding is the best in energy conservation; its making reflects the energy back to the surrounding, thereby making the machines such as air conditioning to work with ease. The white substrate also helps you in reducing the amount of heat absorbed during hot seasons by giving insulation of up to about 70%.
