If you want to minimize the amount of repairs on your home, you should consider cement board siding. This looks like slab siding that you have probably seen before, and it can be painted any color. However, it is made out of cement and not out of wood or plastic. This means that it is incredibly durable. It will be able to withstand the weather no matter where you live. It will also be able to take a lot of abuse. You will not have to make very many repairs and you will not have to replace it very often.
