Your siding is your home's first line of defense against Northern Nevada's extremes — relentless high-desert sun, dry summer heat, wind-driven grit, and the freeze-thaw cycles that come with winter at altitude. When old siding fades, cracks, warps, or lets moisture reach the sheathing behind it, a full re-side restores both protection and curb appeal. Renovations INC is a local Reno-Sparks contractor with more than 25 years of experience and over 1,000 projects completed each year, and siding is one of the things we do best.
Siding materials built for the high desert
We install low-maintenance fiber cement, vinyl, and engineered-wood siding from the brands we trust to hold up here. There is no single "best" siding for every home — the right choice depends on your budget, your home's architecture, and how the product handles our sun and winters.
- James Hardie fiber cement — HardiePlank lap, HardiePanel vertical, and HardieShingle siding. Non-combustible, resistant to warping and cracking, and engineered for climate. A premium choice for homeowners who want durability and a baked-on color finish that stands up to UV.
- Alside vinyl — a lower-cost, low-maintenance option that never needs painting. A practical pick when budget matters and you still want a clean, refreshed exterior.
- LP SmartSide engineered wood — the warmth and texture of real wood with treated engineered-wood durability, well suited to craftsman and board-and-batten looks.
Why siding matters in Reno's climate
Reno sits at roughly 4,500 feet, which means stronger UV exposure than lower elevations and a wide daily temperature swing year-round. That combination is hard on exterior cladding: cheap siding fades, chalks, and gets brittle, and any gap that lets water in can freeze and expand over winter. Fiber cement and engineered-wood products are chosen specifically because they resist that punishment, and a proper re-side gives us the chance to inspect and correct the sheathing and weather barrier underneath — the part that actually keeps moisture out of your walls.
Our process
Every siding project starts with a free, no-pressure in-home estimate. From there we handle the job end to end:
- Walk your home, measure, and recommend the material that fits your goals and budget.
- Remove the existing siding and inspect the sheathing for hidden moisture or rot.
- Install or repair the weather-resistive barrier so the wall is properly protected.
- Hang the new siding and finish the trim, soffit, and fascia for a clean, complete exterior.
- Clean up the site and walk the finished work with you before we call it done.
Because we also replace windows and handle full home remodeling, a re-side is a natural time to upgrade everything on the exterior at once — one crew, one schedule, one point of contact.

Siding FAQ
Which siding holds up best in Reno's climate?
Fiber cement (James Hardie) and engineered wood (LP SmartSide) both perform well against Northern Nevada's intense sun, dry heat, and freeze-thaw winters. Fiber cement is non-combustible and resists warping, while Alside vinyl is a lower-cost, low-maintenance option. We'll walk through the trade-offs during your free in-home estimate.
How long does a full re-side take?
Timelines depend on the size of your home and the material. The project includes removing the old siding, inspecting the sheathing, and installing the weather-resistive barrier along with trim, soffit, and fascia. We confirm the schedule before we start so you know what to expect.
Do you offer financing and a warranty on siding?
Yes. Financing is available on approved credit (OAC), including a 12-month no-payments option, and your installation is backed by our workmanship warranty alongside the manufacturer's product warranty. Renovations INC is licensed in Nevada (NV License #0077896A).
