A home is an infinite project. There’s always something to do, whether repairs, cleaning or general maintenance. Many homeowners eventually make improvements that reduce the unceasing workload.
If you’re done with painting or staining your Honey Creek house's exterior, installing siding is a fast, trustworthy solution to leave those chores in the rearview mirror. No longer the province of just shiny metal or cheap-looking vinyl, improvements in siding technology now add beauty and value to a home … and notably reduce its workload.
This result applies to homes already clad in siding, albeit older material. If color is fading, or siding damaged, the home’s residents might be surprised at the explosive growth in siding options since they last shopped.
One siding contractor has the best siding for homes, and siding installers, in Honey Creek: RNB Design Group. For more than 25 years, the exterior siding professionals at RNB Design Group have helped homeowners free up time, and renew their homes’ appearances, with high-quality siding products and service.
The materials available for siding are many, along with styles, colors and features. For purposes of brevity, let’s focus on materials suited to the climate of Honey Creek.
New exterior siding delivers a plethora of benefits, besides reduced maintenance: enhanced curb appeal. Greater resale value. Reduced energy costs. Long-lasting protection from outdoor elements.
The cold winters and warm summers of Honey Creek lend themselves to three siding types: vinyl siding, composite siding and fiber cement siding. The siding for a house available from RNB Design Group is ideally matched to this climate. A local company knows its weather!
Let’s briefly explore the qualities of each siding material:
How do you decide which siding is best for your Honey Creek home? Consulting with family and neighbors is a good start. Learn what’s worked for them (or not).
Next, visit showrooms to view siding samples for yourself. Consider their insulation and energy efficiency qualities. Compare costs, features and warranties.
This last part is especially important if you plan to stay in a house for a sustained period. Vinyl siding manufacturers usually warranty their product for 50 years to lifetime. Composite siding is typically warrantied for 20 to 50 years; fiber cement, 30 to 50 years.
Know that siding warranties regularly have maintenance requirements and wind speed limitations. Is the warranty transferable to a new owner? All factor into the fine print. Read, and ensure you understand it, before buying.
Sure, a warranty is a warranty. It might cover a material’s condition. It might not cover its appearance.
Thus, other performance attributes of siding should be considered: impact resistance and water resistance, for example. The periodic high winds and hail in Honey Creek can weather (no pun intended) a siding material before its time.
Aesthetics matter, of course. Does the style of siding fit with your home’s design, whether traditional, modern or rustic? Do its color options synch with your palette? Do trim and accent options complement your architectural style?
House siding cost generally runs $20,000 to $50,000. This covers installation and materials – no more. Do maintenance or replacement costs lie down the road? Will the siding deliver a hoped-for bump in resale value?
Thankfully, you’re not alone in this journey of research and decision. RNB Design Group is ready to help select the best siding for your home, and install it to factory-specified standards.
