The term “engineered wood” is one that most contractors and homeowners are familiar with — and for good reason. The processes and chemicals used to manufacture different products in the engineered wood category perform exceptionally well, last longer than natural products and have proven to be economical to own. This is true of engineered wood siding as well. In recent years, dramatic improvements have been made that give engineered wood siding options more natural looks while simultaneously reducing the risk of rot and making it almost impervious to insect damage.
