All About Stone Siding

Stone siding is beautiful and often associated with the homes of the wealthy. This is not for no reason, of course, because stone siding can indeed be quite expensive. But if your budget doesn’t allow for the real thing, take heart. You can still achieve the look of stone without the sometimes prohibitive costs by way of another material, such as with vinyl stone siding. Advances in the manufacturing of vinyl siding have made it so that your home will look like it’s sided with granite with only you and your contractor knowing it’s not the real thing.

The advantages of faux stone siding aren’t relegated to just its much lower cost, though. Unlike real stone siding, simulated stone siding is fairly lightweight in comparison, making it much easier to install. It is made of a cement backing with a veneer applied to it that will look identical to whatever stone you prefer – granite, sandstone, limestone and more. In fact, faux stone siding manufacturers often use real stone to create the molds for their simulated stone siding panels. What’s more, these panels are often also nearly maintenance free. Your simulated stone siding may require nothing more than a wash with a common garden hose every now and again to keep it looking great!

Whether you decide to get the real thing or go faux, your new stone siding is definitely going to enhance the curb appeal of your home.
