How Much Does Siding Cost To Replace?

Katelyn Lewis • February 21, 2024

Replacing the siding on your house is a huge investment. As you’re planning and budgeting for your siding replacement project, you may wonder how much siding costs to replace.

Well, it depends on the siding you go for. 


Vinyl siding offers both an easy installation product and the least-expensive siding product on the market today. It also comes with low-maintenance costs, only needing a power wash every five years or so.


LP Smartside offers a home exterior wood siding option without the maintenance or cost attached to your standard wood. Wax, resin, zinc borate, and other binders keep the wood protected and resistant to insects and rot. Pricing wise, it’s more expensive than vinyl but cheaper than HardiePlank. It comes in a variety of prefinished color options, too.


HardiePlank – made up of Portland cement, sand, water, and cellulose fibers – provides a durable, long-lasting, and low-maintenance type of siding. And it’s engineered to withstand damage from moisture and rot, non-combustible, and unappealing to woodpeckers, termites, and other pests, according to James Hardie. Pricing wise, it’s more expensive than vinyl and LP; comparable to hardboard and some composite; and cheaper than brick, synthetic stucco, and some wood siding options.
