Your home’s exterior is the first thing anyone notices. Aside from providing a beautiful first impression, your home exterior should also balance durability and energy efficiency. At Capstone Custom Homes, we offer several exterior customization options to help you find the right match for your preferences and priorities.

Exploring Exterior Material Options

Today’s homes have a wider variety of exterior material options than ever before, including vinyl siding, fiber cement, brick, and stone. Many homes even use a combination of materials. While aesthetic appeal largely comes down to personal preference, you should also be mindful of the durability and maintenance requirements of your chosen material. For example, while vinyl siding is less expensive and relatively low maintenance, brick provides superior durability and insulation.

Energy Efficiency and Insulation

Regardless of the visible exterior you choose for your home, you can still maximize your energy efficiency and insulation through other building choices. All Capstone Custom Homes come standard with your choice or R15 or R20 wall insulation, as well as R11 insulated garage walls. Pairing proper insulation with your chosen exterior will maximize your home’s comfort and energy savings.

Customization for Curb Appeal
