Steel siding has been a building staple for more than a hundred years. That type of history brings with it innovations and improvements, but it can also mean common misconceptions. We\u2019ve put together some of the major steel siding misconceptions so you can make an informed decision for your home\u2019s exterior.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Myth: Steel siding is high-maintenance, low durability.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Steel siding is not only resistant to rust, fading, and chalking, it\u2019s also termite and fire resistant and can withstand high impact and hail damage. Because of its construction, steel provides protection from the elements by standing up against warping, rot, and moisture. Seamless steel siding also seals the home off from the elements to better protect your home\u2019s framework.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bonus? Steel is easy to clean. A quick rinse with a garden hose is all it takes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3>Myth: Other materials are better for the environment.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>For homeowners looking to make an eco-conscious choice, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.usseamless.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"steel (opens in a new tab)\">steel<\/a> fits right in. As the most recycled material in the U.S., it\u2019s an environmentally friendly exterior option.

In fact, with today\u2019s manufacturing, steel can look <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nomoreseams.com\/seamless-siding\/mountain-cedar-seamless-siding\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" aria-label=\"just like wood (opens in a new tab)\">just like wood<\/a>, without the upkeep and deterioration.
