When selecting siding for your home, it’s essential to consider materials that can handle the cold winters and humid summers typical in Ontario.
Vinyl and fiber cement are both excellent choices.
Vinyl siding is low-maintenance, affordable, and resistant to moisture, making it a reliable option in both hot and cold conditions.
Fiber cement, on the other hand, offers greater durability and is also fire-resistant, which adds an extra layer of protection to your home. Fiber cement may require occasional repainting but handles temperature changes well without warping or cracking.
For even better performance, consider adding a moisture barrier underneath the siding. This layer helps protect your home from the effects of freezing and thawing cycles, which can damage less durable materials. By adding this layer, you can prevent rot, mold, and other issues that can arise from moisture seepage.
