Popular Siding Options We Offer to Oakland Homeowners
We’re proud to bring a wide selection of siding materials to Oakland residents. Each product is chosen for its longevity, performance, and ability to handle Iowa’s dynamic weather.
Vinyl Siding
A favorite for many Oakland homeowners, vinyl siding is cost-effective, low-maintenance, and available in countless colors and textures. It offers excellent durability and reliable energy performance without the upkeep demands of other siding materials.
Wood Siding
For homeowners who want warmth, natural charm, and timeless character, wood siding is unmatched. It holds a classic appeal that suits many older and historic homes found throughout Oakland’s tree-lined neighborhoods.
Metal Siding
Metal siding delivers exceptional strength and resilience — especially valuable in areas where high winds and storms are common. It provides a sleek, modern look and offers impressive longevity with very little maintenance required.
Fiber Cement Siding
Fiber cement siding blends the look of real wood with the toughness of cement. It’s resistant to pests, fire, moisture, and severe weather, making it a long-lasting option that keeps its appearance for years.
Composite Siding
Composite siding is built from a blend of high-performance materials, giving it a reputation for superior durability and thermal efficiency. It’s versatile, stylish, and engineered to resist warping, fading, and cracking.
Siding Brands We Trust
James Hardie
James Hardie siding — especially Hardie Board — is known for outstanding weather resistance, gorgeous design, and proven longevity. It’s a top choice among Oakland homeowners looking for premium protection and curb appeal.
LP SmartSide
LP SmartSide combines engineered strength with the warm appearance of wood. It resists pests, moisture, and impact damage, making it an ideal match for homes in rural communities like Oakland where exterior durability truly matters.
How to Tell If Your Oakland Home Needs New Siding
Iowa’s weather can be tough on older exteriors. Here are common signs it may be time to replace or repair your siding:
- Warping, cracking, or buckling panels
- Fading or uneven discoloration from years of sun exposure
- Peeling paint or bubbling under the surface
- Cold drafts inside the home
- Higher-than-normal energy bills
- Moisture, mold, or mildew around the exterior walls
- Visible storm or hail damage
If any of these sound familiar, it’s best to schedule an inspection before damage spreads — or before another storm intensifies the problem.
How to Choose the Best Siding for Your Home in Oakland, IA
Selecting the right siding comes down to more than just looks. Consider these factors when planning your upgrade:
1. Weather Resistance
Oakland experiences strong seasonal shifts, so choose siding that holds up to wind, cold snaps, heat, and moisture.
2. Maintenance Level
Some homeowners love the charm of wood — others prefer zero upkeep. Pick materials that fit your lifestyle and long-term plans.
3. Architectural Style
From farmhouses to ranch homes, certain siding materials complement different designs more naturally.
4. Budget & Longevity
Think beyond upfront cost — durability, warranties, and long-term maintenance should guide your investment.
5. Energy Efficiency
Well-chosen siding can significantly improve indoor comfort and help reduce energy costs throughout Oakland’s colder months.
If you’re unsure which siding suits you best, Bishop Exteriors can walk you through the pros, cons, and cost differences of every option.
Straight-Talk Questions Homeowners Ask
(Our Friendlier, More Helpful Version of FAQs)
How long does siding typically last in a place like Oakland, IA?
Longevity depends on the material, but high-quality siding like fiber cement, metal, or composite can last 30–50 years or more with proper care. Vinyl siding generally lasts 20–30 years.
Will new siding improve my home’s insulation?
Absolutely. Modern siding systems — especially when paired with insulated backing — help reduce drafts, stabilize indoor temperatures, and lower monthly heating and cooling costs.
Is replacement always better than repairing?
Not always. Small areas of damage can often be repaired. But if the siding is aging, repeatedly cracking, or showing signs of moisture intrusion, full replacement is the better long-term investment.
Can I mix different siding materials for my home?
Yes! Many Oakland homeowners blend textures — like fiber cement with stone or vinyl with accents — to create dimension and visual appeal.
How disruptive is the installation process?
Most projects wrap up quickly, and the Bishop Exteriors team works to minimize noise, protect landscaping, and maintain a clean worksite from start to finish.

Highly recommend Bishop for roof repairs/replacement, siding and gutters. We had a small amount of roof damage following the July storms and requested several estimates to complete the repairs. One company wanted full payment up front before … More even putting us on their schedule (with no openings until January), another company didn’t show up, and a third company wanted to replace the whole roof. Chris came to our house, gave us a reasonable estimate and had someone at our house the following week to complete the repairs. After the repairs were complete, Nicole called to make sure the job was satisfactory, sent an invoice and accepted payment by check. Everyone I interacted with was personable, courteous and professional. Job will done.

I had a minor siding problem after the terrible wind storm in July and really wanted to get it taken care of before the winter snow and winds. I called my original siding company and they said they were too busy with major repairs and … More new jobs, but would get to it before winter. I called the first of October and they still wouldn't too anxious to come and do a minor repair. I then called Bishop and Christian came out and said he'd take care of it within days. He was true to his word. I will definitely use them in the future. Great communication and reliable.

Chris Bishop, the owner of Bishop Exteriors, exceeded all expectations. Chris made the process easy, from picking out the type and color of siding, to the installation. The pricing and fees were clear, and the work was finished on time … More and as promised. In addition, Chris coordinated window installation, drywall, and the tear down and rebuilding of our front porch. Chris was always in contact with me and visited every day that work was happening.

Thank you, Chris, for outstanding service.
