Today, there are a lot of variations in choosing siding, not just offering better technical protection, but aesthetic options as well. To explore your options, check out our types of siding page.

First thing’s first, what is Siding?

Siding, also known as wall cladding, is the material that protects the wall of the house or a building – it is attached to the exterior side of the wall. Just like the roof, it defends the interior from elements such as the sun, rain, heat, and cold. Hence, siding creates a comfortable environment for the interior side. Furthermore, siding enhances the house’s overall beauty. If you’re considering a siding upgrade, visit our siding replacement page.
