Look no further than All-Side Contracting Ltd. for exterior renovation services. In addition to metal siding, we also provide other services such as window capping and metal roofing.
Benefits of Steel Siding
Steel siding looks attractive and it is used as an alternative to cement-based sidings. It is
produced using recycled materials and is fire resistant. When compared to aluminum siding, steel siding is superior in strength, thickness and durability. Steel siding lasts for many years and requires very little maintenance as it resists rot and corrosion and doesn't absorb moisture, which can cause the growth of harmful mould, mildew and algae. It also won't chip or crack upon impact.
In addition to its durability and strength, steel siding also has the ability to prevent damage from the outside elements and other threats, including:
- Fires
- Hailstones and high-speed winds
- Extreme temperatures (both hot and cold)
- Pests including ants and termites
- Dents (has a higher resistance than aluminum)
To thwart the possibility of rust, our professional crew makes sure that all edges of your metal siding in Edmonton are properly installed and covered to prevent any exposure of cracks to the elements.
Types of Steel and Metal Siding
After you've decided on metal siding in Edmonton, you will have several options to choose from. Would you like horizontal or vertical siding, and what specific material would you like? Corrugated metal siding is becoming more and more popular, especially for commercial buildings and modern homes. Additionally, galvanized steel is another top choice and is offered in many finishes to replicate woodgrain textures, clapboard and stained cedar.
Our experienced staff will help you select the material, profile and finish needed to match your unique style; panels can be trimmed to fit the smallest spaces and make sure every corner looks seamless. Metal siding is ideal for the exterior of homes, businesses, barns, sheds, storage buildings and more. We know you'll love the attractive look and incredibly low upkeep of this versatile material!
Metal Siding: The Environmentally Responsible Choice
Your All-Side Contracting Ltd. siding installer will precision cut the steel for each piece of siding so there is as little waste as possible. However, all of the remnants are completely recyclable, making your metal siding an eco-friendly choice. Steel siding is also coated with cool paint technology so it reflects radiant heat. This will help keep your home cooler during Edmonton’s hot continental summers and warmer throughout the freezing-cold winters.
Steel Siding Keeps Its Curb Appeal for Years to Come
Much like vinyl siding, steel siding is available in a wide range of colours and textures, including those that give the impression of traditional wood siding. Painted steel siding will also resist the chalkiness that tends to make aluminum siding look faded over time.
Metal siding is very low maintenance, with the only necessary upkeep for your new siding being the occasional spray down to remove any debris that has collected.
