A few of the most versatile options are aluminum and other metal sidings. These materials are nearly impervious to pests, insects, fire, and water. However, this does not mean you should not inspect your siding. Ensuring your cladding is able to do its job is beneficial to the integrity of your home.
Be on the lookout for dents. Metal is a strong material, but with enough force, it can dent, break and scratch. Aluminum is a softer material than steel. Each one has their benefits and drawbacks. If your siding has been pierced by an object or scratched, rust can occur. If these issues are found and not resolved, larger problems can make their way into your home. Pests can find their way behind your exterior cladding as well as moisture.
Metal siding does not hold paint as well as vinyl and wood. If you are painting your siding, colors can fade out or remove completely.
