Cost to Install Different Siding Materials

The most popular siding materials in Lancaster, PA are vinyl siding, fiber cement, and composite siding. When installed by an expert contractor, all three can provide you decades of reliable performance and gorgeous curb appeal. Let’s explore the different materials and the average cost to install them:

Premium Vinyl Siding

There is a big difference between the heaviest gauge luxury siding we install from brands like Provia, Mastic, and CertainTeed and the lesser-quality builder grade vinyl. Vinyl is a practical and budget-friendly option and is the most common siding material all across the country.

Pros:

Vinyl is the Least Expensive Material
Comes in a Wider Variety of Colors than Ever
25 to 30 Year Fade Warranty on Dark Colors
Lifetime warranty on the product
Easy to Clean
Longest lasting siding

Cons:

Has the Vinyl Look Which Some Homeowners Don’t Like
Can Be Cut, Chipped or Damaged

The most cost-effective siding option

Fiber Cement

Fiber cement is a luxury siding material with a distinct wood look. A popular option to upgrade both vinyl siding and to replace wood siding, this material does come at a higher price point than vinyl. James Hardie is the big name brand behind this luxury siding material that you may have heard of.

Pros:

Stands Out Compared to Vinyl
Beautiful and Bright Color Options
Has a 15-Year Warranty on Paint
Can Replicate the Look of Wood Siding

Cons:

Needs to Be Repainted Periodically
Can Deteriorate If Paint Isn’t Maintained
Can Crack and Break

Can be as much as twice the price of vinyl siding

Everlast Composite Siding

This siding option is crafted from a combination of real wood and vinyl materials. One of our most highly-recommended products, Everlast Composite siding has a distinct look but also boasts convenient practical benefits.

Pros:

Finish Extends the Whole Way through the Material for Maximum Color and Strength
Composite Siding Has a Lifetime Warranty
Replicates Wood Much Like Fiber Cement
Impervious to the Elements

I just had a window and two doors replaced by Choice Home Remodeling. Their workmanship was excellent. Tim was very professional and Rob and his crew were great to work with. I would highly recommend them to family and friends!

I recently had Choice Home Remodeling install new windows and a patio door in our home. We were in the market looking for contractors and Choice was recommended by neighbors who were very pleased with the work they had done. The sales team was very helpful and knowledgeable with which window option was best for us and working within our budget. Any questions we had they were quick to respond and always available to call. The installation crew were on time each day and respectful of us and our property. They were super friendly and were easily able to accommodate our schedule and completed the job on time just as they promised. The entire process was seamless as we didn’t have to stress about any of the process because Choice has already taken care of it or always had the next steps before we even get the opportunity to ask. We are very pleased with the products and how the results turned out. We would definitely recommend Choice Home Remodeling for home improvement projects.
