Aluminum Siding
A surplus of aluminum during World War 2 led to the introduction of aluminum sidings. The humble aluminum siding has come a long way since then, and it was the precursor to vinyl. Aluminum sidings were the first to take on the appearance of fake wood. Aluminum siding is as easy as vinyl siding to install but isn't as forgiving during installation. They can get easily dented when you’re installing them, but aluminum sidings are very durable once they are in place.
Although aluminum is known to cause heat-loss from a home, many people find that aluminum sidings are very energy efficient and save you money in terms of energy spent on heating the home in winter and keeping it cool during summer. Corrosion is another problem that you may face with aluminum sidings, but you can get around this by painting your aluminum siding. Make sure that you use a paint that is water-resistant.
Washing your aluminum siding by hand is the better alternative to using a pressure washer. It might take a little extra effort but it ensures that your aluminum siding does not get damaged in the cleaning process. Make sure that you use a coat of metal primer on your aluminum siding before you paint it, and a coat of finish after you do. Are you looking for an home siding contractors in the Tucson area?

I wondered if it was possible to replace wooden shakes with vinyl siding only on the front of my house. It is a one story ranch - about 60 feet wide (this includes a garage). I'd like a ballpark estimate for materials and installation - and whether or not its possible to cap the sides even if one of the sides on each corner being capped would be wooden shakes.
