Start with the wall assembly
Siding is only one part of the exterior. Sheathing, weather resistant layers, flashing and trim need to work together according to the products and design you choose.
Think about maintenance
Different exterior materials have different painting, sealing and cleaning needs. Consider how much ongoing maintenance you want to take on.
Match the house when it makes sense
A shed can feel more intentional when its exterior relates to nearby buildings. Similar trim proportions or siding character can help without requiring an exact match.
Follow product instructions
Fastener type, clearances and installation details vary by siding product. Use the manufacturer's current instructions.
