Whether you are building a new home, or are looking at re-siding, there are more choices than ever. Siding is made from a wide variety of materials and can finish off your house with a siding solution that satisfies your taste and style.
If your choice is to use steel or aluminous, you can guarantee that it will be dent and wind-resistant and will need very little maintenance. It can show scratches when they are deep enough to go through the color coat. Both are available in a broad range of colors which are deeper and brighter then what is available in vinyl siding.

The eastern end of North Carolina juts out from the East Coast of the United States into the Atlantic Ocean and the Gulf Stream, making the state prone to Atlantic hurricanes, which tend to strike the state every three to four years. Running along the entire coast of North Carolina, serving as a buffer against the Atlantic, is a long chain of barrier islands (the Outer Banks), with constantly shifting sand dunes, from which project three famous capes—Hatteras, Lookout, and Fear. Between the islands and the shoreline stretch lagoons—Albemarle Sound and Pamlico Sound are the largest—that receive the Chowan, Roanoke, Tar, Neuse, and Cape Fear rivers. Wilmington, the chief port, is at the head of the Cape Fear estuary. The mainland bordering the sounds is low, flat tidewater country, often swampy, even beyond the Dismal Swamp in the north. In the upper coastal plain the land rises gradually from the tidewater, reaching 500 ft (152 m) at the fall line.
