Written by Bella Construction | May 2, 2025 7:21:08 PM

Thinking about replacing the siding on your home? It’s one of the smartest exterior remodeling projects you can take on—not only does it enhance curb appeal, but it can also boost your property value and improve energy efficiency. At Bella Construction, we know that choosing the right siding contractor and the right materials makes all the difference when it comes to protecting your investment.

Let’s dive into your siding options, how new siding can affect your energy bills, and what makes Bella’s process smooth from start to finish.

Top Siding Options for Your Home

Choosing the right material is about more than just looks—it’s about durability, maintenance, insulation, and cost. Here are three of the most popular siding for your home choices we install across Western Pennsylvania:

1. Vinyl Siding

Vinyl remains a top choice for homeowners who want an affordable, low-maintenance siding option. It comes in a wide range of colors and textures, and it resists fading, cracking, and pests.

  • ✅ Budget-friendly

  • ✅ Virtually maintenance-free

  • ✅ Can be installed with insulated backing for better energy efficiency

2. Fiber Cement Siding

This option is growing in popularity for its durability and natural look. It mimics wood grain but holds up better against weather, fire, and insects.

  • 🔥 Fire-resistant

  • 🌧️ Weather-tough and rot-resistant

  • 🧱 Offers a high-end appearance with minimal upkeep

3. Engineered Wood Siding

If you love the classic look of wood but want modern performance, engineered wood is a great middle ground. It’s lighter and more uniform than traditional wood siding and comes pre-primed or painted.

  • 🌲 Natural wood texture

  • 💪 Built to last with added strength and weather resistance

  • 🎨 Available in many factory-finished colors

How New Siding Affects Energy Bills and Home Value

Your home’s siding does more than just sit there looking pretty—it’s a critical layer of protection between your home and the elements. Worn-out or damaged siding can lead to moisture buildup, air leaks, and higher heating and cooling costs.

When installed properly, new siding can:

  • Reduce energy loss with better insulation and tighter seals

  • Lower utility bills over time

  • Increase resale value with a fresh, modern appearance

  • Protect structural integrity by keeping water and pests out

Many homebuyers notice the condition of the siding first—clean, well-installed siding gives the impression that your whole home is well-maintained.
