What's included

What a siding project covers.

Good siding work protects the wall behind it, not just the surface. Here's what a typical scope from a pre-screened contractor includes.

Inspection & estimate

An assessment of your current siding, sheathing, and any moisture damage — with a written, itemized estimate by square footage.

Old siding removal

Tear-off and disposal of the existing material, plus inspection of the sheathing and house wrap underneath for rot.

Moisture barrier & insulation

New house wrap or weather-resistive barrier, and optional insulated backing to improve the home's thermal envelope.

New siding installation

Vinyl, fiber cement, engineered wood, or composite installed to spec, with trim, corners, and flashing around openings.

Common siding projects

  • Whole-home re-siding to replace cracked, faded, or warped material
  • Upgrade to fiber cement (e.g. Hardie-style board) for durability
  • Repair of storm, hail, or impact damage on a section of wall
  • Adding insulated siding to improve energy efficiency
  • Replacing trim, soffit, and fascia along with the main siding
  • Mixed-material accents — board-and-batten, shake, or stone veneer

Three quotes. No pressure. Free.

1

Tell us about your home

Share your home's approximate size, current siding, and your zip code. It takes about two minutes.

2

We match you with up to three pros

We screen each siding contractor for active licensing, insurance, and service area before they contact you.

3

Compare quotes, hire when ready

Compare materials, warranties, and price side by side. There's no obligation and no cost to you.

How we pre-screen pros

Every contractor is checked before they reach you.

We don't hand your details to just anyone. Here's what we verify before a siding contractor can be matched with your project.

Active state licensing

We confirm each siding contractor holds the license their state requires, and we re-check the network on a regular cycle.

Liability & workers' comp insurance

We verify general liability and, where required, workers' compensation — so any accident on your property isn't your liability.

Verifiable review history

We look for a traceable record of real customer reviews rather than a single unverified rating.

Local service area

We only match you with contractors who actually work in your zip code, not a national lead desk.

Siding questions

Honest answers, no fine print.

How much does it cost to re-side a house?
Most homeowners spend $7,000 to $25,000 to re-side an average home, depending on material and home size. Vinyl is the most affordable; fiber cement and engineered wood cost more but last longer. Your matched contractors will measure and price your exact home.
What's the most durable siding material?
Fiber cement is among the most durable common options — fire-resistant and rated for 30–50 years. Engineered wood and quality vinyl also perform well. The best choice depends on your climate, budget, and the look you want; a matched pro can walk you through trade-offs.
How long does a siding replacement take?
Most whole-home re-siding projects take one to two weeks, depending on home size, material, weather, and whether sheathing repairs are needed. Your matched contractor will give you a timeline with the quote.
Will new siding improve energy efficiency?
Adding a weather-resistive barrier and insulated siding backing can reduce air infiltration and improve your home's thermal envelope. The exact impact depends on your existing wall construction, so treat efficiency as one benefit alongside appearance and protection.
Is the quote really free?
Yes. Homative is free for homeowners. Contractors pay us when they receive a qualified match — you never pay for a quote and you're never obligated to hire.
