What is the cheapest siding?

Vinyl, at $4 to $11 per square foot installed, and it never needs painting.

Is fiber cement worth the extra cost?

For most homes yes — it costs roughly 50% more than vinyl but lasts 30 to 50 years, resists fire and pests, and returns strong resale value.

Can new siding go over old siding?

Vinyl can go over sound vinyl or wood in many jurisdictions, saving 10% to 20%. It hides problems, though, so an inspection first is worth it.

How long does a siding job take?

Five to fourteen days for an average home, longer for stucco or stone veneer that cures in stages.

Does new siding add home value?

Fiber cement siding replacement is one of the highest-return remodels tracked, typically recouping 60% to 88% of cost at resale.
