Check out these benefits with vertical siding 

  • When used all over the exterior, vertical board siding can add an illusion of height to a house.
  • To further enhance the look, trim out the siding, windows and doors in a contrasting color. A brooding dark gray shade for your siding paired with crisp white trims and a bold red door. Now there is a showstopper!
  • Vertical siding can also be used to add flair to the lower portion of a home or to highlight architectural points such as the gables. Framing your entryway, bay and bow windows with Vertical siding will further draw the eye to these areas.
  • Select, rich and bold color! Don’t worry if you are more into the neutral shades, we have those as well. See our full list of our siding colors here.
  • Vertical Siding is easier to clean. Due to the vertical orientation of the siding you do not need to worry about water getting behind the pieces. This reduces the chance of water damage and build up behind panels.
