Before siding was installed but after old asbestos siding removed
Our home had the old asbestos shingles on it and they were starting to look really nasty. They made the whole house look run down.
After looking at many different siding styles we ended up picking the Clapboard profile. We choose CertainTeed Monogram Double 4 inch in a beautiful sterling gray color.
It has made all the difference in the world. I am proud of our house now. In fact it is one of the nicest homes on the block.
If I had it to do over, I would have picked an insulated vinyl siding. The cost is not that much more and I think it would have made a big difference in our winter heating bills.
All in all, we are very happy with our new siding. It actually cost a little less than we had budgeted for. I called around and got four installers to give me quotes. We did not pick the lowest price one. The contractor that had the middle price seemed to have more knowledge and experience in installing vinyl siding. The job turned out to be what we expected and we are very happy.
