When it’s time to update your home’s exterior, new siding can offer one of the best returns on investment—not only improving curb appeal but also adding energy efficiency and long-term protection. But how much does siding actually cost in areas like Issaquah, Kirkland, and Sammamish?
If you’re a homeowner on the Eastside of Seattle considering a siding project, here’s what you need to know.
What Impacts the Cost of New Siding?
While we don’t list exact prices online, there are a number of key factors that influence the overall cost of a siding project:
- Material Type: Fiber cement (like James Hardie), natural cedar, engineered wood (such as LP SmartSide), or mixed media designs.
- Project Scope: Full replacement, partial re-siding, or new construction.
- Design Choices: Horizontal lap, board & batten, shingles, or panelized systems.
- Home Size & Layout: Larger homes or complex designs can increase labor and material needs.
- Finish Requirements: Painting, staining, or pre-finished siding options.
- Additional Services: Replacing trim, soffits, windows, or adding stone veneer or custom accents.
At Emerald State, we help you find the right balance of design and value without compromising quality.
What’s Typical in Eastside Communities?
Issaquah & Sammamish:
Homeowners here often choose fiber cement or cedar siding, built to withstand the damp Pacific Northwest climate. We do not install vinyl siding, because it simply doesn’t offer the longevity or protection needed in this region. Many Issaquah projects include both siding and window replacements for maximum efficiency.
Kirkland:
Kirkland clients often explore vertical siding styles, such as board and batten, or mixed materials for a custom look. Combining horizontal lap with accent walls can make your home stand out—something we specialize in.
Redmond & Bellevue:
We’re seeing a rise in modern aesthetics in these areas, with homeowners opting for clean-lined panels or combinations of lap siding with architectural accents like stone veneer or metal trims.
Newcastle & Woodinville:
Design diversity is key in these growing communities. Homeowners frequently opt for custom combinations—like shingles, lap siding, and stonework—to create something truly unique and timeless.
