Wood siding is a great way to add elegance and class to your San Diego area home. Nothing else can give you the curb appeal that wood siding does. There are a number of types of wood siding like shingles, clapboard, lap or shake for you to choose from. The wood siding panels can be applied vertically or horizontally, and you can choose finishes for the wood siding that range from stains to sealant and paint. Ultimately the choice you make depends on the budget you have, and the kind of finish that you want from your wood siding.
If you’re hooked on the wood look and are willing to out in the extra effort, a wood siding will provide your home with a look that is unique. You can get a number of styles, finishes and textures with a wood siding. You can also give it a satin or paint finish which will add to its appearance. Make sure that you treat the wood for termite and weather resistance. This will ensure that you don’t have any added problems to worry about. Composite sidings are a low-cost and low-maintenance alternative to wood sidings, but they will give you a similar kind of look.
Composite sidings are made from a number of materials, and these can include shredded wood, Portland cement, binders and glue among others. Composites like fiber cement have the capability to withstand rain, wind, hail and are insect-proofed. Some composites come with 50 year warranties.

I wondered if it was possible to replace wooden shakes with vinyl siding only on the front of my house. It is a one story ranch - about 60 feet wide (this includes a garage). I'd like a ballpark estimate for materials and installation - and whether or not its possible to cap the sides even if one of the sides on each corner being capped would be wooden shakes.

I need to replace 2-3 panels of vinyl siding due to small holes/splits. The panels are not far off the ground and would not require a ladder. I know the details of the type of siding but do not have any extra materials I can replace the panels with.
