Why it matters
Why it pays to do it right
Your home's weather shell
Siding plus a good moisture barrier keeps wind-driven rain and snowmelt out of the wall cavity, where damage hides until it's expensive.
Freeze-thaw is the enemy
Repeated freezing and thawing cracks brittle or aging siding and lets water in. Modern materials are built to flex and shed water.
Insulation opportunity
A re-side is the rare chance to add a layer of continuous insulation behind the cladding, trimming heating bills for decades.
Curb appeal & resale
New siding transforms the look of a home and consistently ranks among the top exterior projects for recouped value.
Local conditions
Siding in Denver
Front Range cladding takes a beating from every direction: severe hail dents and cracks it, intense high-altitude UV fades it, hard freeze-thaw cycles work at seams, and the region's expansive clay soils shift foundations enough to stress siding over time. Impact-resistant materials earn their place in Aurora.
Hail events
Frequent
Hail dents and cracks siding as well as roofs, so impact-rated cladding pays off here.
UV & freeze-thaw
Severe
High-altitude sun and repeated freezing fade finishes and open seams faster than in mild climates.
Expansive clay soil
Common
Bentonite-rich Front Range soils heave and settle, stressing trim and siding seams over the years.
Insurance & permits
Hail is the number-one driver of Colorado home-insurance costs, and it damages siding as readily as roofs, many policies apply the same 1–5% wind/hail deductible to a siding claim. Document storm damage with dated photos before you file. Aurora requires a permit for a full re-side; a licensed contractor typically pulls it.
Permits
Aurora requires a permit for a full re-side; a licensed contractor typically pulls it and folds the fee into the quote.
FAQ
Siding questions, answered for Aurora
How much does new siding cost in Aurora?
Cost is driven by wall square footage, material, number of stories, and how much repair the sheathing needs once the old siding is off. Most Aurora projects fall in the range shown above.
What siding holds up best to Front Range hail?
Fiber cement and steel resist hail and UV far better than vinyl, which can crack on impact in the cold. Many Aurora homeowners choose impact-rated cladding both to limit damage and to ease insurance concerns.
Will my insurance cover hail-damaged siding?
Usually, hail and wind are covered perils on most Colorado policies, and the metro files a lot of these claims. Note the separate 1–5% wind/hail deductible, and document the damage with dated photos before filing.
Do I need a permit to replace siding in Aurora?
A full re-side typically requires a permit and inspection. A licensed contractor usually pulls it for you and folds the fee into the quote.
