Part 8 – MASTIC – Ply Gem Siding & Accessories

Siding is just one of many selections that are made in our Selection Gallery. And like the other companies we partner with, (if you’ve missed them and are curious, go back and read past blogs to learn more about what we install in our Berks Homes and why), we have well-thought-out reasons behind partnering with MASTIC SIDING.

With so many options anymore, it can be confusing. To break it down, let’s take a look at siding types in a nutshell:

• Lap siding is the traditional siding that you may be used to seeing. The long, flat boards overlap each other to shed water and prevent it from reaching the walls. These boards range from 3” to 7”.

• Vertical siding can work wonders for small spaces, giving a contemporary flair or the look of height to your home’s exterior.

• Shake & Shingle is most often found in North American colonies due to its charm and character. We often see this type of exterior installed on smaller homes or used as accents on larger homes. This type of siding offers the look of wood, with the durability of vinyl and without the pesky maintenance and upkeep that goes along with it.
