In short, it says aluminum, vinyl and steel are all currently available,
but most of the market is vinyl.

I am re-siding my house this year & would like some expert opinions on
whether to use aluminum or vinyl siding.

I have heard that steel siding is better but I do not plan on living in
the
house for more than 6 or seven more years.

Our house is 22 years old & has the original wood composite siding on it.
All of the contractors who have looked at it say they would need to remove
the old siding and install the new siding over an insulation type of
board.

What are the benefits of both & cost differences.

I live in Wisconsin.

Thanks in advance for your replies!
