Exterior siding is the building material placed on the outside of your home to protect it from the elements. Wind, rain, bugs, extreme temperatures and more all are held at bay by the exterior siding on your house.
While your house siding is the first layer of defense against the world around it don't forget that it also plays a significant role in the appearance of your home. With a wide variety of materials, styles and colors available few elements of a house change it's look and feel more than siding. Materials such as vinyl, aluminum, wood, stucco, brick, and engineered wood all have their individual pros and cons to consider when it is time to install siding on a new house or re-side an existing structure. Taking into account the compatibility of certain siding materials with your local region may help narrow the scope of your choice.
Please remember that extras such as soffit, fascia, and anything customized will cost more.

How to calculate your exterior siding footage
If you’d like to estimate how much it will cost to have siding installed on your house, you must figure your exterior square footage and then multiply that number by the siding cost per square foot. Here are a couple of ways to accomplish this.
Rough estimate:
Please remember that this method should never be used when actually making important buying decisions, but if all you’re looking for is a quick ballpark number, it will do. Basically, the principle is that your interior square footage is equal to your exterior square footage. It is likely to vary within 200 square feet and in some cases as much as 500 square feet. This method also does not take into account spaces like windows and doors that will not be covered with siding. Keep reading if you need something more specific.
Exact calculation:
This is your chance to brush up on your geometry. No, really it’s not hard. You’ll need paper, a tape measure, a calculator, and a pencil. And here’s a tip: round off amounts to the nearest whole or half so it doesn’t get too confusing. That will get you close enough, especially since you’re just using the measurements to figure siding costs.
First of all, you need to know the two basic shapes found on the exterior of a house and how to figure the area for them:
Rectangle
The area, A, of any type of rectangle can be found by multiplying the lengths of the two sides.
Triangle
A=1/2bh
