Weatherproof Your South Shore Home with Azek Shingle Siding

Comparing Composite v Wood Shingles

Our team at Almar often talks with homeowners like you who are looking to enhance their home’s curb appeal while ensuring it stands strong against our notorious New England weather, let’s talk about Azek Shingle Siding.

Living on the South Shore means we face it all: salty sea air, harsh winters, humid summers, and everything in between. Traditional cedar shingles, while beautiful, can succumb to rot, warping, and insect damage over time. That’s where we have found Azek Shingle Siding comes in as a game-changer for homeowners like you.

Why Azek Shingle Siding is Perfect for Eastern Massachusetts Homes:

Durability:

• Azek shingles are made from a proprietary engineered polymer, (AKA: Composite) unlike some wood-composite materials that contain wood fibers, AZEK cellular PVC does not. This is a key factor in its resistance to rot, moisture absorption, and insect damage. This means you can say goodbye to the constant maintenance and replacements that traditional cedar requires.
  
• For those of us on the coast, the salty air can accelerate the degradation of many materials. Azek stands up to this coastal environment exceptionally well.

Low Maintenance, High Beauty:

• Imagine a siding that looks as beautiful as natural cedar but requires minimal upkeep. Azek shingles maintain their pristine appearance for years, saving you time and money.
  
• No more worrying about staining, sealing, or replacing rotted shingles!

Weather Resistance:

• Our Eastern Massachusetts winters can be brutal. Azek shingles are designed to withstand freezing temperatures, heavy snow, and strong winds, protecting your home for decades.
  
• The product is designed to withstand the elements, and hold up to the harsh New England weather.

Increased Home Value:

Investing in Azek Shingle Siding not only enhances your home’s aesthetics but also increases its value. Potential buyers appreciate the low-maintenance, long-lasting benefits.

Azek Shingles vs. Cedar Shingles: A South Shore Perspective:

While we appreciate the timeless appeal of cedar shingles, Azek offers significant advantages for South Shore homeowners:

• Longevity: Azek outlasts cedar, which is prone to rot, warping, and splitting in our humid climate.
• Maintenance: Azek requires minimal upkeep compared to cedar’s need for regular staining and sealing.
• Pest Resistance: Azek is impervious to insects, while cedar can be susceptible to termites and other wood-boring pests.
• Moisture Resistance: Cedar will soak up water, Azek will not. This is a very important feature for homes near the ocean.
