FAQs
Is shake siding more expensive than other siding options?
Compared to standard vinyl siding it is typically more expensive, but compared to natural wood shakes, it more affordable and lower maintenance.
How durable is shake siding in harsh weather?
Shake siding is highly durable, resistant to rot, warping, and cracking, and is built to withstand extreme weather conditions.
Can shake siding be used on the entire home?
Yes, but it’s often used as an accent on gables or entryways, combined with other siding for added visual interest. If you choose to install either kind of siding on the entire home, consider adding insulated backing to improve insulation and reduce heat loss.
How long does vinyl shake siding last?
Vinyl shake siding can last 20-40 years or more, depending on the quality of the material and the local climate with minimal maintenance required. However, it can fade slightly due to prolonged sun exposure, but high-quality vinyl shake siding is UV-protected to minimize fading.
