SIDING IN MINNESOTA

Your Ultimate Siding Partner for the Twin Cities

Worn or damaged siding is not just an unpleasant sight; it is a sign of trouble. If your home’s siding is not functioning properly, water may penetrate and wreak havoc on your home. Over time, the accumulation of moisture can cause structural damage and the growth of mold and mildew, which can pose a threat to your health. If your siding needs to be replaced, your heating and cooling costs can skyrocket while your home’s curb appeal plummets. Our team at Midwest Roofing, Siding & Windows knows how important siding is for the health and appearance of your home.

Whether you prefer the strength of steel, the maintenance-free ease of vinyl, the warm beauty of engineered wood, or the endurance of fiber-cement, Midwest Roofing, Siding & Windows can help you get the perfect siding for your home.

Siding Materials We Install

From traditional to modern, Midwest Roofing, Siding & Windows has the right siding option for you. With years of installation experience, we know which products deliver the best results for your unique circumstances. We offer several high-quality options.

Vinyl

Our vinyl siding products come in a broad range of styles, colors, and textures. The price range of vinyl is low to moderate, but despite its affordability, it offers longevity. Like metal, vinyl arrives in long strips with interlocking edges for easy installation. At Midwest Roofing, Siding & Windows, we also provide an insulated foam backer to improve your vinyl’s energy efficiency and resilience.

Additionally, vinyl can be used as retrofit siding, often applied over old wood siding. Vinyl never needs to be painted or stained, making it an attractive, low-maintenance option. Homeowners also value vinyl siding for its versatility. No matter your home’s style or layout, vinyl siding complements a host of other materials, including stone, slate, and brick. Mix and match for maximum effect.

Steel Siding

Our EDCO Steel Siding exhibits a natural, beautiful look that will last a lifetime. We partner with EDCO because they offer a wide range of wood grain textures for all steel products. EDCO’s exclusive ENTEX® finish comes in unlimited premium color options and is backed with a 35-year fade warranty. Overall, EDCO steel products provide the ultimate combination of beauty and durability.

Steel offers incredible versatility. It can be formed to fit different shapes, edges, and curves. Steel is capable of being molded into popular roofing styles, such as architectural asphalt shingles and cedar shakes. Its strength and longevity also surpass other standard options available on the market. Steel represents the exciting wave of the future in high-end, lifelong roofing products.

LP Smartside Siding

LP SmartSide Siding is an engineered wood-like product that appears and acts like real wood. However, it is far superior in performance compared to actual wood. From siding and shakes to board and batten, you can create any style you wish with LP SmartSide Siding. Midwest Roofing, Siding & Windows can install LP SmartSide Siding prefinished, or we can custom paint it anytime you prefer.

For environmentally conscious homeowners, LP Smartside Siding is the ideal renewable resource on the market. It is manufactured using materials acquired via cutting-edge but eco-friendly processes certified by the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI). Because it comes in longer segments than other types of siding, LP Smartside Siding provides an easy, straightforward installation.

James Hardie Fiber Cement

With proper installation, fiber cement looks and feels similar to natural wood. At Midwest Roofing, Siding & Window, we install high-quality James Hardie (Hardie Board) fiber cement. This option is extremely durable, and its longevity is a factor in its cost-effectiveness. Although fiber cement may require a greater initial investment, it is extremely low maintenance and (unlike wood) won’t rot.

As an additional aesthetic benefit, fiber cement closely mimics natural wood grains. In reality, it is virtually indistinguishable from the average wood siding product. As a homeowner, you can also find complimentary trim and millwork pieces to accent design details to enhance your home’s overall appearance. Because fiber cement comes in various colors and textures, it is 100% customizable.

Benefits Of Siding Replacement

For the homeowner evaluating the potential of replacing their siding, consider the following advantages:

Failing or dilapidated siding will not protect your home from outside elements, like severe weather, mold, and rot. New enhanced siding better safeguards your home from extreme conditions.

Your neighbors and guests notice your siding’s appearance before any other home feature. If your existing siding appears worn and dated, a roof replacement will reinvigorate your home instantly.

Do you have a proclivity for a particular style or color but feel “stuck” with the existing siding that came with the house? It might be time to replace the current siding with something that reflects you.

Prospective buyers and their real estate agents notice a home’s siding before any other exterior feature. New siding makes your home more appealing (and quite possibly will attract a higher offer).

Save on heating and cooling consumption. Reduce utility bills. When coupled with additional insulation, today’s new siding products offer a tremendous advantage with improved energy efficiency.

Modern siding, such as cement fiber and vinyl, offers the meaningful benefit of low maintenance. Previous generations of siding often required routine upkeep, including a new coat of paint or stain.

Siding FAQs

Naturally, the price for new siding depends on the material used. Today, a maintenance-free vinyl siding replacement project averages $15,000 for a typical 2,500-square-foot home. However, this expense can vary when considering a home’s layout. New siding costs range from $8,500 to $50,000 (or more). A homeowner should secure multiple siding bids. However, don’t merely accept the lowest price. Prioritize working with a reputable siding company.

Generally, wood siding is the most maintenance-intensive siding. It will require frequent upkeep, including new paint or stain. However, most newer forms of siding provide similar levels of low maintenance (where homeowners do not need to concern themselves regarding periodic upkeep or repairs). Vinyl, fiber cement, engineered wood composite, stucco, metal, steel, and natural stone offer a maintenance-free advantage to give homeowners peace of mind.

By design, vinyl siding will last between 20 and 30 years (and as much as 40 years if well-maintained). Many other forms of siding have an extended lifespan of 30 to 50 years (or more). For instance, fiber cement, stucco, natural stone, and engineered wood composite siding are known to last over 50 years easily. Many of these siding alternatives can exist for over 100 years. Choosing a durable siding ensures the homeowner won’t need to worry again.

If the homeowner hires a reputable siding company to replace the siding, the contractor will likely recommend installing a new house wrap (such as Tyvek, Typar, James Hardie, Pinkwrap, Poly-Wall, and Weathermate) simultaneously. The existing house wrap will probably have holes and tears from old nails and the aging process. A new wrap is relatively affordable and can reinforce the home’s security against outside forces such as moisture intrusion.
