Beveled cedar siding is perhaps the most popular look in Missouri. Beveled siding has a classic layered look that can be painted with your choice of colors, and will require yearly or bi-yearly painting touch-ups to maintain a fresh look.

One of the most beautiful types of cedar siding is tongue and groove cedar siding. This type of siding is made from planks of cedar that have tongue and groove fittings for a smooth finish. The cedar siding can be painted, or simply stained or varnished for an extra protective coating.

Board and batten cedar siding is similar to tongue and groove cedar siding, yet has a much different look. The board and batten cedar siding is made by using a base of cedar boards that are fortified with cedar trim that is elevated away from the board. The result is a pattern of larger, flat boards with smaller, raised cedar trim. This type of cedar siding is typically painted, and like other natural wood sidings, may require yearly paint touch-ups.

Cedar siding is priced according to which type of siding you purchase, the size of your house and how long it will take to install the siding.
