The Features and Benefits of Our Siding Options

If you’re considering giving your home a complete makeover, new siding is a step in the right direction. Up and Above Contractors is a remodeling company that offers a wide selection of siding material options. Here are our most popular siding options with their unique features and benefits.

Fiber Cement Siding

Fiber cement siding is made from cement, sand and cellulose fiber. This results in exceptionally strong siding material that resists extreme temperatures, moisture and direct impact. It creates a deeper relief than other similar extruded materials with realistic wood grain textures that don’t get obscured by paint.

Up and Above Contractors is a siding and roofing company that’s proud to offer James Hardie® fiber cement siding products to homeowners in New Jersey. With James Hardie’s extensive selection of siding products, you can expect to enjoy benefits, such as the HardieZone™ System, which ensures that you get climate-appropriate fiber-cement siding. Another benefit is our ColorPlus® Technology, an exclusive coating system that results in long-lasting custom colors that will not flake, chip or peel, or require repainting.

Wood Shake Siding

While wood shakes are not as popular as they once were, they remain a great siding option. They offer unmatched aesthetic qualities that are perfectly suited for homes based on traditional architectural styles. It should be noted that, unlike other siding material options, wood shake siding requires a lot of care and attention, including frequent scraping and repainting as well as regular maintenance.

Vinyl Siding

Vinyl is the most popular siding material today, mainly due to its low-maintenance properties. All it needs to stay clean is the occasional wash using a garden hose and a soft cloth. It also comes in factory-applied colors that will not require scraping or repainting. Quality vinyl siding is impact-resistant and can withstand temperature extremes. In addition to the typical horizontal and vertical panels, vinyl siding is also available as shakes, scallops and fish scales among others. We offer vinyl siding options from leading manufacturers CertainTeed® and Mastic®.
