Much like a roof protects from hail, wind, snow, and rain, the siding of a home also protects from these common Montana weather conditions. Properly installed siding plays a vital role in the security of your home. That is why a homeowner must consider the siding of a home carefully. Not only is the material of importance, as it will last for decades, but one must carefully consider the color. Color can either help a home sell faster or delay the sale. Here are three of the top color choices in Great Falls for 2023.
Popular Siding Colors
Snow White/White
This color will stand the test of time as it will never go out of style. White offers the highest resale value because any color roof, any outdoor decorations, or any shutters can look classy with white siding.
One downside, though, is that white siding is difficult to keep clean. It does show dirt and grime easily. So the homeowner must remember that cleaning will need to be done on occasion to keep the siding at its peak color.
Off-White/Cream
This second color is almost as popular as the first. This shade presents a sophisticated look while offering subtle warmth and depth. It does reflect sunlight and reduces heat absorption, making it slightly more energy efficient. Be careful to choose colors that complement off-white when selecting trim and shutters.
Gray
For another subtle, neutral tone, consider gray. This color, and its many shades, have become more popular as homeowners are seeking a modern option. Gray is soft, and versatile, and pairs well with many other colors such as black, white, or blue to set off the exterior of a home.
Benefits of New Siding
New siding offers many positive benefits to the homeowner. Here are four advantages of replacing your home’s exterior with siding.
Improved Appearance
New siding helps to keep the home looking nice for longer, with less maintenance than needing to paint every few years. The options of colors are so wide and varied, it’s almost as if the homeowner has a blank canvas to create a beautiful home with style and sophistication.
Energy Efficiency
Any holes or damaged areas can be easily covered up with new siding installed. The contractor can add additional insulation if needed to keep the home at a more comfortable temperature year-round. It can really help your HVAC system.
Structural Integrity of the Home
Some siding offers resistance to moisture which offers an excellent barrier against the wood rotting underneath or water pooling in the window sills. Be sure to speak with your trusted roofing and siding contractor in Great Falls about this benefit.
Increased Home Value
Replacing the siding of a home can offer up to 80% of the return on investment when the house is sold. That is a huge percentage! That alone is a consideration for upgrading the exterior of your home.
