 Lou Manfredini here with a HowSmartz Minute home improvement tip. If you're considering residing your home and are looking for an alternative to vinyl siding, why not consider a cementitious siding? This cement-based siding looks like cedar siding and outperforms vinyl in its durability. If you get the factory paint finish, it will be warrantied for up to 15 years, and it looks great, too.
