Aluminum siding typically has a higher initial material cost than galvanized steel siding. However, steel requires additional protective coatings (Por exemplo, zinc or polymer layers) to resist corrosion, increasing long – term maintenance expenses. Aluminum’s natural oxidation resistance and lighter weight reduce installation labor and lifecycle costs.
At Xtra Metal Group, our vertically integrated supply chain allows precise customization of both materials to optimize budgets. While steel excels in extreme impact resistance, aluminum offers superior durability in humid or coastal environments. For projects prioritizing longevity with minimal upkeep, aluminum often proves more cost – effective over decades.
