How to Choose the Best Siding for Your Home in Kansas City Metro Area
Have you decided to replace your house siding, or perhaps add siding to your home for the first time? If so, this is a terrific opportunity for an exterior home remodel that can make your dream home take shape before your eyes! Choosing your siding will probably be the most important step in your home makeover, but unfortunately the selection process is not as simple as searching the internet for opinions on the best house siding. The ideal siding for a home in one part of the country, or sometimes even in the same neighborhood, may not be the best option for you. If you live in the Kansas City metro area, you can turn to the exterior remodeling experts at Johnson County Siding & Window Co. for guidance toward the best siding options for your home. After more than 40 years in the home remodeling business, we take pride not only in our award-winning expertise but also in our low-pressure approach that focuses on educating homeowners about their options and putting them at ease.
In the meantime, here are a few key factors to consider as you prepare to freshen up your home’s appearance with new siding:
Natural Enemies
Although it might be fun to think about siding as a suit of clothes that reflects your personal style, it’s also useful to view it as the suit of armor that will protect your home from the elements. Thanks to the climate in the Kansas City metro area, local homeowners have to prepare for temperatures that can be at extreme ends of the thermometer, depending on the season. We also frequently experience powerful windstorms, heavy rains, pounding hailstorms, and high humidity. Add to that the ever-present threats of termite infestation and woodpecker attacks.
At Johnson County Siding & Window Co., we offer several types of siding materials, all from leading manufacturers with a proven track record for producing siding that’s engineered to protect homes from the weather and other natural threats in our region. We can also steer you toward the best siding options to help your home maintain a comfortable temperature all year long with less reliance on your heating and cooling systems. We can help you make energy-efficient siding selections that are not only environmentally conscious but also may help lower your utility bills. And we can help you consider your priorities for features such as mildew and impact resistance.
Neighborhood Setting
Many homeowners in the Kansas City metro area live in deed-restricted neighborhoods where a homeowners association has strict guidelines for the types of siding allowed. These guidelines often include siding materials, colors, and styles. Even if you don’t live in a neighborhood where you must adhere to formal specifications, you’ll likely want your home to stand out for its beauty and style without clashing with the other houses around it. At Johnson County Siding & Window Co., we offer consultations with a professional designer who can help you consider your neighborhood setting when picking out the best siding to flatter your home.
Design Trends
Combining a variety of siding colors and styles to create a heightened level of visual appeal is one of the hottest trends in exterior home design, and no one does it better than Johnson County Siding & Window Co. In most cases, it takes a professional eye to create the perfect tasteful blend of textures and colors for a home. Our in-house designer can help you do just that, as well as consider specific features of your home—such as its size, its proximity to the street, and whether there are gables or porch columns to accentuate. Of course, your personal preferences will also come into play!
We also have visualization software that can help you experiment with different siding materials, colors, and styles and see how they will look together and with your roof before you make an investment.
Another great reason to turn to our company for guidance in selecting the best siding for your home is that we offer several types of siding from leading manufacturers, including:
- James Hardie fiber cement siding
- Mastic by Ply Gem vinyl siding
- Simulated stone veneer from Centurion® Stone and ProVia®
- Exceptionally durable acrylic stucco siding
What’s more, we offer and install some of the most beautiful replacement windows and doors on the market, and all of the products we’ve selected to install for our customers have earned top ratings for performance and durability. This means, if you have a total exterior makeover in mind, you won’t need to seek out multiple companies to get the look you want.
