Full services directory How it worksFor prosAbout Get matched Call (866) 582-8523The three questions homeowners ask most: siding replacement costs about $8,000 to $30,000 on a typical 2,000-square-foot home (This Old House, 2026); vinyl and aluminum typically last 20 to 40 years while fiber cement lasts 50-plus; and the decision to repair or replace comes down to whether the damage is impact or water.
Most siding regret traces back to the same two errors: hiring on price without normalizing the scope, and covering a wall without inspecting what's behind it. Almost every question below is a version of one of those.
If you only take one thing from this section: siding is a rain screen. Its job is to shed most water and let the rest drain out. The parts that keep your house dry are the water-resistive barrier and the flashing, and they are installed by the crew you hire — not by the brand you choose.
