Wood Bevel Siding Price Guide
Wood bevel siding is a style of siding created from wedge-shaped boards that overlap each other. Although the single boards used for the siding are referred to as clapboards, the actual siding itself is referred to as bevel siding. Historically, a wide assortment of woods have been used to create the bevel siding. When the siding is put on the home, the narrow side of each clapboard lies underneath the wide edge of the clapboard on top. The clapboards can then be painted or left unfinished, depending upon personal taste.
The Costs
-
Minimum Cost of Wood Bevel Siding: $4.21 per square foot
-
Maximum Cost of Wood Bevel Siding: $5.57 per square foot
The cost of wood bevel siding is slightly variable, based upon the actual quality of the material. Generally, the price ranges from approximately $4.21 to $5.57 per square foot. Additional costs that may be incurred are those associated with the labor and supplies necessary to install the siding. The labor costs for the installation of wood bevel siding ranges from roughly $34 to $42 per hour, which usually includes the time required for set up, site fabrication and cleanup. The supplies and tools necessary to complete the installation will range from approximately $299 to $346 for a home that requires 1,500 square feet of siding.
Materials
Wood bevel siding is manufactured from various wood materials, including naturally rot-resistant woods such as cedar or redwood. Red cedar has been a popular option for many years because it is naturally resistant to weather and pests. However, other soft and hardwoods can be used as well. Most modern homes have wood bevel siding made from pine and red cedar, but in the past, the siding has also been made from split oak and spruce.
Advantages and Disadvantages of Wood Bevel Siding
Advantages
Wood bevel siding is aesthetically pleasing and can increase the resale value of a home due to its appeal. The overlapping design of wood bevel siding allows the wood to contract and expand in different weather conditions. In addition, the siding helps rain and snow drop off a home's side to avoid structural damage. Wood bevel siding may be left unfinished or painted nearly any color. A wide variety of wood is available to fit different tastes. Repairs to wood bevel siding are relatively easy as a single clapboard can be repainted or replaced. Wood bevel siding is considered environmentally friendly as wood is a renewable and biodegradable resource.
Disadvantages
Wood bevel siding is one of the most expensive options for siding materials. It may be susceptible to rot if not properly maintained and thus requires more maintenance than other siding materials. Repainting and sealing is required every few years. Siding made from certain woods is vulnerable to pests such as termites, although paint and sealant work to protect it.
