Siding Style Options to Consider
If you want to improve your curb appeal – ask your siding company what you can do to update the look and character of your home. Vinyl siding can mimic another siding material, and installing vinyl siding may save you money while not compromising durability.
Here are some siding style options to consider.
Horizontal Lap Siding
You can’t go wrong with the classic horizontal lap siding. This timeless look is perfect for various architectural styles, including colonial, ranch, and Cape Cod.
Vertical Siding
For a more modern aesthetic, ask about vertical boards or panels. This may only be an option for some types of siding. However, when used, it can be aesthetically pleasing.
Board and Batten Siding
Do you dream of natural wood – but still want low-maintenance exterior siding? Ask about board and batten vinyl siding. This design comprises wide panels and narrow strips (the “batten”) over the seams.
You’ll find board and batten-style siding on modern farmhouses.
Shiplap Siding
Shiplap siding is super popular and relatively easy to install horizontally or vertically. It is popular on coastal cottages and farmhouse interiors.
Cedar Shake Siding
The look of cedar shakes can be replicated with vinyl to create a textured and rustic appearance. They are frequently seen on beachfront cottages and Cape Cod-style homes.
Scallop Siding
Are you looking for a more whimsical option? Scalloped siding panels with a wavy or scalloped edge add visual interest to Victorian homes and cottages.
Fish Scale Siding
Another decorative and ornate option, fish scale siding, is popular on Victorian and Queen Anne-style homes. As is half-round or round siding, which is often used to highlight unique architectural features.
Stucco Siding Patterns
You can achieve the look of stucco without all the material weaknesses with vinyl siding. Choose smooth or textured siding that looks like stucco for your Mediterranean or Spanish-style house.
Mixed Materials Siding
Consider combining different siding materials. For example, add a touch of brick or stone veneer siding to your home’s exterior. Natural stone, brick, wood, or metal can add texture to a bland facade and can be used on many different styles of homes.
