When it comes to choosing siding, many people opt for traditional vinyl. However, cement has become more and more popular over the years due to its numerous benefits. If you’re updating your home’s exterior, here are a few reasons to consider it.

Why Should I Opt for Cement Siding?

1. Low Maintenance

Vinyl is prone to accumulating dust over time. Many homeowners pressure wash their homes every few years to remove built-up grime, which can be a massive undertaking depending on the size of your home. With cement, you don’t have to worry as much about accumulating dirt, especially if your siding is textured. 

2. Sustainable

While it’s called cement siding, this material is actually a combination of wood fibers, recycled wood, and cement. As a result, it has a much lower impact on the environment than wood and vinyl, which is said to contribute to the rise of greenhouse gases. 

3. Versatile

Cement siding can be designed to mimic the look of wood expertly. It also comes in a wide range of colors and textures depending on your taste. This product can even be made to look like stucco, providing the aesthetic appeal without the high price tag. 

4. Heat-, Hail- & Warping-Resistant

Cement won’t melt when subjected to direct heat, nor will it add kindling to a house fire. It's also resistant to hail damage and won’t warp when exposed to water as wood siding does. Its durability ensures that it will stand the test of time.
