Siding Types We Offer

The first thing to select is your siding material. Look at these siding options that are very popular among discerning homeowners in Springfield:
- James Hardie® siding is produced by mixing cement with other components to create a fire and weather-resistant option resembling natural wood. Its insulating properties can help maintain interior temperatures and reduce energy costs. Upkeep is relatively easy, typically involving occasional cleaning to remove dirt or debris. James Hardie® siding can last upwards of 30 years.
- Vinyl siding is chosen for its affordability, durability, and minimal maintenance needs. While not as insulating as other options, vinyl still provides a protective layer against the elements. Occasional cleaning with mild detergent and water is usually sufficient for upkeep. With expert installation and regular attention, vinyl siding can perform well for around 20 to 30 years.
- Cedar siding is durable, moisture- and pest-resistant. Made from native red or white cedar, it offers unrivaled natural beauty. Its insulating properties help regulate interior temperatures and reduce energy consumption. Maintenance typically involves periodic staining or sealing to protect against moisture and UV damage. Cedar siding can last from 20 to 40 years with appropriate care.
- Aluminum siding can also mimic the appearance of natural wood with its vertical/horizontal planks and flat panels. As an insulator, aluminum siding helps maintain comfortable indoor temperatures. Maintenance requirements are minimal, primarily occasional cleaning to remove dirt or mildew build-up. With correct care, aluminum siding can remain in good condition for around 30 to 50 years.
- Engineered wood siding is made from recycled wood fibers and strengthened with resin and wax for enhanced durability. Its insulating properties help regulate indoor temperatures, potentially reducing energy costs. Maintenance is straightforward, requiring only periodic cleaning and occasional re-staining or sealing to maintain appearance and protect against moisture infiltration. With consistent attention, engineered wood siding can protect your home for 20 to 30 years.

Lap Siding
Lap siding remains a beloved choice in Springfield and Hampden County. It creates that timeless aesthetic that fits so well in our surroundings. However, there is no danger of a predictable, ‘cookie-cutter’ look – options include cottage lap, Dutch lap, nickel, or shiplap (horizontal board overlap), so there are plenty of opportunities to reflect your individuality.
Shingles and Shakes
Shingle siding is an excellent choice for homeowners seeking to preserve the timeless elegance of historic homes. This type of siding seamlessly integrates with the classic aesthetic of traditional neighborhoods, enhancing the architectural beauty and historical integrity of your property.
Options like scalloped and staggered designs add a unique touch, emphasizing the home’s historical character while providing a visually striking exterior. Shingle siding a perfect fit for those looking to blend durability with classic charm.
Board and Batten
Versatile board and batten siding is perfect for traditional architectural styles found in the Colonial Revival and Queen Anne-style homes in the historic McKnight district. Although often used on high or gable walls to achieve an elongated effect, its clean, multi-dimensional look also complements contemporary farmhouse styles.
Available in options ranging from luxurious natural cedar to budget-friendly vinyl, board and batten siding allows you to express your creativity in addition to offering protection and improving interior comfort.
Siding Panels
Also known as sheet siding and vertical siding, panels come in various finishes, including smooth-sided, cedarmill, and stucco, and a range of colors and designs.
Creating a cohesive aesthetic, they are the go-to option for modern homes where a minimalist look is called for. Siding panels are typically cut on-site to create a perfect fit with every detail of your home’s exterior.
