Modern composite and polymer panels in wood, shake and stone looks, with low upkeep and consistent color.
Composite and polymer siding is a newer group of materials that mimic wood, cedar shake and stone using engineered resins and fillers. They are light, easy to handle, color all the way through or finished at the factory and designed to need little upkeep. Many look remarkably like cedar shake or stacked stone from a few feet away, which gives you the style of a premium material with fewer headaches.
Each product has its own installation rules about nailing, gaps, fasteners and trim. Some panels interlock, some use clips and some are installed like traditional siding. We follow the maker details closely, choose compatible trim and flashing and keep the weather barrier and drainage right behind them. We also talk about what you give up with composite, such as repairability and how colors age, and we show you real samples so you know what the finish looks like in your own light.
Panels are easier to handle than cement or stone, which speeds installation on complex walls.
Shake, board and stacked stone textures give style without the weight or maintenance of the real thing.
Many products carry color through the material, so scratches are less noticeable.
We follow each maker details for clips, gaps and trim so the wall performs as designed.
