The Advantages of Brick or Stone Veneer?
If you want the look of stone siding without the costly maintenance, consider purchasing a brick or stone veneer. It will not need the mortar replacement that actual brick or stone siding requires. It also costs less upfront that does the real deal. Real brick or stone siding must rest on a foundation while the veneer adheres to the house with mortar or mastic. The veneer is also nearly identical in appearance to real brick or stone, since it is made from the same materials.

I have an insurance claim our vinyl siding on the back of the house was damaged by a storm should we let them try to match the siding on the rear or insist on the whole house sided?
If you can get a full replacement, go for it. Even if they can get new siding in the original color, it's unlikely to match, since the old siding will have faded. Some insurance won't cover a full replacement, though. You might want to check the fine print in your contract. It would also be good to make it a goal to replace the siding with anything else (hardi-plank, brick, thin-brick, stone or stucco); vinyl siding is generally nasty stuff. Every time it needs to be repaired or replaced is a new opportunity for a bad (leaky) installation that could ruin your house.
