Fiber cement is the favorite for Cambridge's historic homes. It looks like real wood clapboard but does not need the same upkeep. In historic districts, you often have to pick a profile and color that match the rest of the block.

Cambridge gets the same coastal New England weather as Boston — nor'easters, freeze-thaw cycles, and some salt air from the nearby harbor. Tall buildings packed close together can also create wind tunnels that beat up exposed siding faster. The most common problem we see in the Cambridge area is moisture getting behind panels due to improper original installation or deteriorating caulking. Early inspection prevents small problems from becoming expensive full replacements.
