We Find an Ideal Solution for You
Ideal Siding® can help you choose the right siding for your home. Choosing the right siding in Boulder is extremely important. Your house needs to be able to hold up to extreme high and low temperatures. It should handle thunderstorms and humidity as well as it handles snow piling up against the walls, freezing temperatures, and intense hail storms. Not to mention, you need an exterior that looks good on your home and is appropriate to your neighborhood.

Our company will guide you throughout the entire process and will answer any questions, relying on our vast experience in the industry and over 500 meetings held with clients each year.
You deserve top-quality materials and skilled craftsmanship—and that’s exactly what we strive to deliver. We work with some of the most reputable suppliers in the industry and partner with experienced crews who take pride in their work. As a local team, we understand the unique needs of homeowners in the area and stay in tune with design preferences and trends across each neighborhood.
Siding Styles That We Offer
We offer lots of different kinds of siding, but experience has taught us that some options are better for Boulder than others. Here are some of the best siding styles for this area that can hold up to the harsh climate and look appropriate in the wide variety of neighborhoods in this area.
Lap Siding
Plank is among the most versatile of all possible options. It can look completely different in different styles and applications. In fact, the chances are good that you will find this siding type everywhere, regardless of whether you live in a modern metropolitan neighborhood, a classic neighborhood with homes from the late 19th century, or a comfortable suburban home.

Plank comes in a number of different materials, with fiber cement and metal being some of the most durable options to hold up to the intense weather of Boulder. However, if you happen to live in one of the milder microclimates in this city, cedar planks can look beautiful, and vinyl can work very well too. Choose from a horizontal installation for a more classic look or a vertical one if you want something more contemporary.
Siding Panels
Siding panels are a superb option for Boulder’s more modern, urban parts. They offer a sophisticated look and clean lines. Panels are cut on-site and provide a customized fit that is both good-looking and very resilient to the weather.

Choose a natural wood effect if you want to blend in more with the mountains or smooth panels for a more trendy look. If you’ve been hit by serious weather in the past and don’t want to take any chances with rain or hail, this option is great. Panels are a tough, heavy-duty option that looks great as well.
Shingles and Shakes
If you live in one of Boulder’s beautiful, historic homes, shakes or shingles might be your right siding choice. Many of these homes are brick. The brick can begin to deteriorate over time and needs to be protected with siding.

Perhaps you live in a more modern home in these neighborhoods, but you want to blend in with the historic homes. Shingles and shakes look classic, but they can be made of heavy-duty materials like fiber cement and vinyl that can hold up to even the worst thunderstorms. If you want a historically appropriate choice, cedar might be right for your home.
How Much Does Siding Cost?
There is as much variety in the cost as in the choices you have in siding. The material and type of siding you choose will greatly impact the price. Of course, the size of your home also impacts the cost of the siding. Whether it is straightforward in structure or has lots of angles and peeks, the construction of your home will also affect the price.
Here are some more siding options for you to choose from and their costs per sq.ft:
Material | Price per sq ft* |
James Hardie® (Fiber Cement) | Starts at $12.00 |
LP® Smartside® (Engineered Wood) | Starts at $14.00 |
Vinyl Siding | Starts at $8.75 |
Premium Vinyl Siding | Starts at $9.50 |
Cedar Siding | Starts at $13.75 |
Stucco | Starts at $15.00 |
Longboard® (Premium Aluminum) | Starts at $46.40 |
Cultured Stone | Starts at $42.50 |
A crucial factor affecting cost is the condition of your existing siding. Damaged siding can harm the underlying sheathing, and if it fails to protect your home from the weather, the home’s integrity may be compromised. In such cases, repairs are needed before new siding installation.
While we’re happy to give you a quote based on what we can see of the condition of your current siding, we won’t really know what’s going on under the existing siding until we remove it. After years of siding installation, we’ve gotten very good at determining what conditions are like under your current siding, but there is always the possibility of unpleasant surprises.

Why You Should Work With Ideal Siding®?
Ideal Siding® was built around the concept that siding materials were unnecessarily expensive and professional installers were underpaid at the time. To put things back in balance, we built Ideal Siding® around the idea that we could work with manufacturers to achieve reduced material prices and use the savings to offer clients a better price while offering high-quality installation.
Here is what we offer you:
- Price match guarantee. Boulder is a costly place to live, and with the region’s demanding climate, quality siding is essential. But that doesn’t mean you should have to overpay. Our price match policy is designed to give you excellent value without compromising on workmanship or materials. If you receive an itemized quote for a comparable scope of work, we’ll gladly review it and aim to match the price.
- Workmanship warranty in the industry. Concerned about the quality of your siding installation? With Ideal Siding®, you don’t have to be. We back our work with a 25-year limited workmanship warranty—even in Boulder’s challenging climate. If any issues arise due to installation, we’re committed to addressing them, whether it’s a minor repair or a more extensive fix. With a strong track record of quality installations and long-term service, you can feel confident that we’ll be here to support you for years to come.
- Complementary design mockup. Having options is a great thing—but we know they can sometimes feel overwhelming. That’s why we offer expert guidance to help you navigate our wide selection of styles, colors, and materials suited to Boulder’s climate.
