## Protect Your Exterior & Build Resale Value

Aging siding brings moisture and insulation problems with it, and those turn into expensive repairs. New siding stops the moisture getting in, refreshes how the house looks, and returns an average of 114% of its cost at resale (2025 Cost vs. Value Report): one of the highest paybacks of any project tracked. ©2025 Zonda Media, a Delaware corporation.

## Siding Replacement Project Costs*

Siding Replacement costs depend on the material, the wall area, and whether sheathing or insulation is replaced behind it. See estimated costs at a glance, with details on how scope, timeline, and other factors affect cost. These are national estimates for labor and materials, and your local labor rates will affect pricing. [See your state page for local pricing.](#by-state)

| Project Type | Estimated Cost | What’s Included |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Vinyl Siding | $8,000–$18,600 | Most popular: durable, low-maintenance, wide color options |
| Fiber Cement (James Hardie) | $17,900–$34,900 | Best long-term investment; strongest resale return of the siding options |
| Engineered Wood | $15,700–$31,100 | LP SmartSide: paintable, wood look without rot issues |
| Wood Siding | $31,600–$49,500 | Premium appearance, requires painting every 5–7 years |
| Stone Veneer Accent | $5,000–$15,000 | Manufactured stone veneer on lower portion of home |
| Soffit & Fascia Replacement | $1,500–$6,000 | Replace rotted or damaged soffit and fascia boards |

![Vinyl Siding](/images/siding/shutterstock_1280299819.jpg)

Vinyl Siding

$8,000–$18,600

Panels installed over house wrap and sheathing, typically completed in 3–5 days for an average home. The most popular material nationally because it balances low cost, minimal maintenance (no painting, ever), and a wide color and style range. The default choice unless a specific reason points you toward fiber cement or wood.

See Vinyl Siding costs →

](/vinyl-siding-cost/index.md)[

![Fiber Cement (James Hardie)](/images/siding/shutterstock_2275589277.jpg)

Fiber Cement (James Hardie)

$17,900–$34,900

A cement-and-cellulose composite installed similarly to wood siding but far more resistant to rot, fire, and pests; typically 5–8 days for an average home given the material's weight and cutting requirements. Delivers the best resale ROI on this list (114%) and holds paint far longer than wood. Worth the premium for homeowners planning to stay long-term or in climates hard on standard vinyl.

See Fiber Cement (James Hardie) costs →

](/fiber-cement-siding-cost/index.md)[

![Engineered Wood](/images/siding/shutterstock_2094678940.jpg)

Engineered Wood

$15,700–$31,100

Products like LP SmartSide give you the look of real wood siding (including the ability to paint any color) without the rot vulnerability, using an engineered wood strand core with a resin-saturated overlay. Installation runs 4–6 days, similar to real wood. A good middle ground between vinyl's low maintenance and wood's authentic appearance.

See Engineered Wood costs →

](/engineered-wood-siding-cost/index.md)[

![Wood Siding](/images/siding/shutterstock_201834475.jpg)

Wood Siding

$31,600–$49,500

Traditional cedar, pine, or fir siding in clapboard, shake, or board-and-batten profiles: the most authentic look on this list, and the most maintenance: repainting or restaining every 5–7 years. Installation takes 5–8 days depending on profile and home size. Chosen almost exclusively for aesthetic authenticity, typically on historic homes or by owners committed to the upkeep.

See Wood Siding costs →

](/wood-siding-cost/index.md)[

![Stone Veneer Accent](/images/siding/shutterstock_75281377.jpg)

Stone Veneer Accent

$5,000–$15,000

Manufactured stone veneer applied to a portion of the home's exterior (usually the lower few feet, entryway surround, or a chimney) rather than the whole house, since it's typically paired with another primary siding material. Installation takes 3–5 days depending on coverage area. A design accent more than a functional necessity, used to add texture and a higher-end look to specific focal areas.

See Stone Veneer Accent costs →

](/stone-veneer-siding-cost/index.md)[

![Soffit & Fascia Replacement](/images/siding/shutterstock_2482424723.jpg)

Soffit & Fascia Replacement

$1,500–$6,000

Replacing the boards under the roof overhang (soffit) and along the roofline edge (fascia) when they've rotted, usually from long-term gutter or roof-flashing failure. Timeline depends on how much linear footage needs replacing, typically 1–3 days. Often bundled with a siding or gutter project since the failure that damaged one usually threatens the other.

Home Genius Exteriors

★★★★★ 4.8 Google · pooled across 20 US locations (11,183 reviews) as of August 2026

Highest-rated multi-trade exterior contractor. Fiber cement, vinyl, and LP SmartSide from in-house crews.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Home Genius Exteriors holds Owens Corning Platinum Preferred status alongside James Hardie Elite Preferred and CertainTeed 5-Star contractor certifications, and covers roofing, siding, windows, doors, gutters and attic insulation. Reviewers name their project manager more often than almost anything else about the job, and describe them staying involved and checking in through to the finish. Siding and gutter work draws the warmest praise for how it looks once finished, and most installs wrap up in just a few days. Their free inspection is thorough and photo-led, with some homeowners noting drone footage of the roof itself. Promotional discounts are tiered by trade rather than applying across the board, so ask what your specific project qualifies for. If your roof is flat or low-slope, ask what warranty comes with it, since those systems are covered differently.

Victory Home Remodeling

★★★★★ 4.6 [Google · single national listing (2,563 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Victory+Home+Remodeling/@40.3641786,-74.1660636,700m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x89c3ad09bd57e2d7:0xb4d840f11819e9a2!8m2!3d40.3641786!4d-74.1660636!16s%2Fg%2F11hdzctg1l) as of August 2026

VSI + AAMA certified (siding & windows). 100% Lifetime Guarantee: no proration.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Victory Home Remodeling covers windows, roofing, siding and gutters across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic (New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware and Maryland), installing and warranting house-branded systems supplied by established manufacturers: EnduranceX™ siding from Norandex, roofing materials from GAF. It is a GAF Master Elite contractor, a designation held by only about 2% of roofers nationwide. The process runs through a named salesperson and project manager, with a quality inspection at the end rather than a single handoff, and reviewers consistently describe the installation crews as clean, careful with the house, and quick to finish on the date first promised. Its warranty is genuinely one of the stronger ones in this category: lifetime, non-prorated on both labor and product, transferable once to the next owner, and it covers glass breakage regardless of cause. Get the full scope, including trim, siding tie-ins, and what the warranty covers, in writing before the crew starts.

Clear Choice Home Improvement

★★★★★ 4.5 [Google · flagship location (887 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Clear+Choice+Home+Improvements/@42.9956,-71.4548,86000m/data=!3m1!1e3!4m6!3m5!1s0x89e24fb5d710e797:0x73eafe18828c12cd!8m2!3d42.941281!4d-71.426495!16s%2Fg%2F119wn4n8p) as of August 2026

Signature Series composite and insulated vinyl siding. Listed in the James Hardie ALLIANCE at Select tier.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Clear Choice Home Improvement is a family-owned company working across Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Rhode Island, southern Maine, Vermont and central Pennsylvania: a regional specialist rather than a national one. Metal roofing is where its reviews are strongest and most detailed: standing-seam roofs fitted in three or four days, crews working till dark, and one homeowner whose panel was repaired free of charge a year later. Homeowners regularly name their crew lead and project coordinator by name when a roof is finished. It is an Owens Corning Preferred contractor, and covers roofing, siding, windows, doors, gutters and bath. One thing worth knowing up front: Clear Choice does replacement and installation, not repairs.

Lednor Home Solutions

★★★★★ 4.2 [Google · flagship location (343 reviews)](https://www.google.com/maps/place/Lednor+Home+Solutions%C2%AE+%7C+Gutter+Helmet,+Roofing+%26+Sunesta+Awnings+%E2%80%93+Maryland,+Washington+DC+%26+Virginia/@39.1001883,-76.6312325,713m/data=!3m2!1e3!4b1!4m6!3m5!1s0x89b7fb2e880fc3e9:0x547d152380a1ee17!8m2!3d39.1001883!4d-76.6312325!16s%2Fg%2F1tfdfc3s) as of August 2026

Multi-trade (roofing, windows, siding). Lifetime no-clog performance warranty.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Lednor Home Solutions is the largest Gutter Helmet dealer in the country, working across twelve states from seven offices: a dealer of the system rather than its manufacturer, which matters when a claim comes up. Homeowners praise punctual, tidy crews and a salesperson who explained the product without rushing. Its Sunesta retractable awning work is quietly its best-reviewed line, with homeowners describing installs finished ahead of schedule. The gutter warranty is the manufacturer’s while the service visit is Lednor’s, and that seam is where homeowners report the most friction. Ask what a service call involves and how quickly one is scheduled.

Homefix Custom Remodeling

★★★★★ 4.5 Google · pooled across 7 US locations (2,693 reviews) as of August 2026

Alside Ascend Installer: premium Alside siding, in-house crews (never subcontracted). 100% Lifetime Guarantee.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Homefix Custom Remodeling has worked across Maryland, Virginia and North Carolina since 1990, covering roofing, siding, windows, doors, gutters and solar. It states plainly that it does not use subcontractors. Its own crews do the work, and reviewers across its different markets back that up by name, crediting installers and crews for turning a full roof or a house of windows around in a day or two. It is a GAF Certified Master Elite roofing contractor. Its warranty is branded UltraCare, and the word lifetime carries specific year caps by product rather than being open-ended, so ask what applies to your job. If your project involves a color-matched material like siding, ask to see and sign off on the exact sample before installation day, and ask upfront how a warranty service call gets scheduled.

DaBella

★★★★★ 4.6 Google · pooled across 57 US locations (43,442 reviews) as of August 2026

Pacific Northwest multi-trade specialist. Climate-specific fiber cement expertise.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Homeowners across DaBella’s network consistently point to the in-home consultation as the best part of the process: a named rep who lays out every option and price point without rushing, and on window jobs, lets you feel the difference between glass packages before you decide. Where a job is finished, the reviews get specific: full roof replacements wrapped up in a single day, whole-house window installs that leave rooms noticeably quieter, and bath and shower conversions homeowners call worth it once the work is done. DaBella covers roofing, siding, windows, bath, walk-in tubs, gutters and solar, and is a GAF Master Elite and James Hardie Elite Preferred contractor; its windows now come under the Fairfield and Glasswing lines. Financing runs through independent third-party lenders. DaBella states plainly in its own terms that it is neither a broker nor a lender. The in-home visit covers a lot of ground, so set aside real time for it, and ask which product line (Fairfield or Glasswing on windows, for example) your quote covers.

Power Home Remodeling

★★★★★ 4.5 Google · pooled across 26 US locations (60,150 reviews) as of August 2026

Power Siding System: insulated, pest-resistant panels; faux stone, cedar & accent shingle styles. 12% employee veterans.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Power Home Remodeling is one of the largest multi-trade exterior remodelers in the country, covering windows, roofing, siding, doors, attic insulation and solar. Its Homeowner Bill of Rights includes a commitment it calls blind pricing: a promise that your price will never vary by your age, income, race or the value of your home. Reviewers consistently name their installation crew and describe fast, tidy work: floors and furniture protected, old materials hauled away, and whole window or siding jobs finished in a day or two. Many are repeat customers, returning for a second or third project years after the first. Installation is carried out by independent contractors partnered with Power, and if a glass seal fails years down the line (or the specific product line is no longer made) ask now what the warranty covers and how a claim gets scheduled.

Hansons

★★★★★ 4.4 Google · pooled across 8 US locations (9,248 reviews) as of August 2026

House-branded vinyl, insulated vinyl and composite siding lines. Great Lakes siding veteran with 25+ years.

![Remy](/images/remy/face-6aa3719e.png) Remy's Take

Hansons covers windows, roofing, siding, gutters and baths across the Great Lakes, and reviewers consistently name the consultant who walked them through options, explained financing, and answered questions without rushing: a different name at nearly every branch, which is its own kind of evidence. Install day draws the same praise. Crews finish a house of windows or a full bath in a day, and homeowners describe careful cleanup and real admiration for the finished work, down to the caulk lines. The Smart Choice warranty runs in tiers: the Lifetime Guarantee applies to the Premium and Smart Choice product solutions for roofing, siding, windows and gutters, so ask which tier your quote is written against. Baths carry a separate No-Leak Guarantee. Warranty service scheduling is the one thing worth asking about up front, since that is where a few homeowners describe the longest wait for a callback.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How much does siding replacement cost*?

Vinyl siding replacement costs $8,000–$18,600 for a standard home. Fiber cement (James Hardie) runs $17,900–$34,900. Cost depends on home size, material choice, and whether old siding needs removal.

### What is the best siding material?

Fiber cement (James Hardie) offers the best combination of durability, appearance, and ROI at 114% resale return. Vinyl is the most popular for its low maintenance and lower cost.

### How long does siding replacement take?

A full siding replacement on a standard home takes 3–7 days. Fiber cement takes longer than vinyl due to material weight and installation requirements.

### Is a James Hardie installer certification important?

Yes. James Hardie backs work by contractors in its certification program differently from non-certified installers. Ask any contractor for their current certification status and for the specific warranty document that applies to your job, in writing.

### Can I install new siding over old siding?

Technically yes, but not recommended. Old siding can hide moisture damage. Most reputable contractors remove old siding and inspect for rot before installing new material.

### Is financing available for siding replacement?

Most siding contractors offer financing, including promotional 0% periods for qualified buyers. Ask about terms during your free estimate.

### What are signs I need new siding?

Warping, cracking, or bubbling siding, visible mold or mildew, rising energy bills, and rotted trim around windows or doors are the most common signs it's time to replace.

### How much does new siding increase my home's value?

Fiber cement siding recoups 114% of its cost at resale nationally (2025 Cost vs. Value Report), among the highest-ROI projects tracked, largely due to its strong curb-appeal impact.

### Is wood siding worth the maintenance cost?

It depends on your climate, budget, and aesthetic priorities. In general, wood makes the most sense for homeowners in dry climates who have the time and budget for premium materials and regular maintenance. [Learn about the costs and benefits of wood siding](/articles/wood-siding-pros-cons/index.md).

### Why is there such a wide price range for new siding*?

The differences are mostly about materials, but the project scope can make a difference too.

- Fiber cement is the durability choice at roughly $9 per square foot installed, with a 50-year plus service life.
- Vinyl is roughly $6 per square foot and lasts 20–40 years. One practical warning: vinyl loses flexibility below freezing and becomes prone to cracking on impact. In a climate with hard winters and hail, that is a real argument for a different material.
- Engineered wood sits between fiber cement and vinyl price-wise, but must be repainted and caulked on schedule to keep its warranty intact (and it's common for homeowners to be unaware of that requirement).

When comparing bids, confirm whether house wrap, trim, and a 10–15% waste allowance are included. Siding companies' quotes can be thousands apart purely on what they leave out of the written scope. [Learn how to get a fair siding quote](/articles/how-to-get-siding-quotes/index.md).
