Wood siding is a traditional choice for home exteriors, known for its natural beauty and warmth. However, wood siding requires regular maintenance and is susceptible to issues such as rot, insects, and warping. On the other hand, cement fiber siding is a more modern option that offers the look of wood without the high-maintenance requirements. Fiber cement siding is highly durable, resistant to common wood siding problems, and environmentally friendly due to its use of recycled materials.
