Which Home Siding Is Best?
If it’s time to replace the siding on your home in the Poynette, Wisconsin, area, you’re probably wondering which of the many available siding options would be the best one to install. Of course, there are a number of factors that go into deciding which material is “best,” such as price, appearance, and maintenance to name a few. For starters, vinyl siding is the most cost-effective, has good waterproofing qualities, and is available in a virtually limitless array of colors. No wonder it’s the most popular siding on American homes.
The next step up is metal siding, such as aluminum or steel, or composite siding, such as fiber cement. While both of these types of siding will cost a bit more than vinyl, they are rated to last between 35 and 50 years, whereas vinyl has a shorter lifespan of 20-30 years. Color options for metal siding and fiber cement are not quite as plentiful as vinyl, but you’ll still have options to choose from.
Next up are wood siding and stucco, both of which are beautiful options for more high-end homes. While wood is not quite as weatherproof as vinyl, metal, or composite siding, it offers a classic elegance that engineered materials can’t compete with. Stucco, likewise, is most commonly sought after for the “old world” aesthetic it imparts. Wood and stucco will both cost a pretty penny, but as each can last more than 50 years, a larger initial investment, when spread over more than a half-century, doesn’t seem that bad.
On top of the heap, we have natural stone siding and faux stone siding, both of which are incredibly durable. Natural stone is rated to last more than 75 years while faux stone comes in at around 50 years. There are a fair amount of options when it comes to stone siding, so cultivating a particular design aesthetic shouldn’t be a problem, but no matter which color, style, or shape of stone you choose, it could end up costing you as much as $32 per square foot – or about four times the cost of standard vinyl siding.

We recently had our home remodeled by the team at Frey Construction. The entire Frey team was professional, experienced, courteous and patient. The final result was exactly how we had envisioned. If we have other home remodeling projects in the future, we would certainly not hesitate to call Frey Construction again.
I am very pleased with Frey Construction. They replaced my roof and gutters. The workers were fast and efficient, and they were always courteous and professional. The office staff was patient and helpful and I appreciated all the time they spent to answer my questions. The quality of work is exceptional and they exceeded my expectations with the clean up afterwards. I highly recommend them!
Frey has done a lot of work for us and the quality is always great. My favorite thing about them is that they are extremely responsive and professional with great customer service. We've previously worked with them on siding and gutters. Most recently I had some windows replaced. They were very helpful and assisted in removing a wall-mounted shelf, which I consider an above and beyond service.
