Slide into Style: 2026 Siding Trends You Can’t Miss
Jan 07, 2026
As we move into 2026, home siding is stepping into the spotlight. With a focus on sustainability, durability, and modern style, this year’s trends offer fresh colors, textures, and materials that boost curb appeal.
If you’re planning a full exterior makeover, these trends offer inspiration for every style and budget. Here are a few examples of how you can give your home a standout exterior this year.
Color
“In 2026, house siding is all about bold, earthy, and timeless colors that make a statement while blending seamlessly with natural surroundings,” said Scott Cline, co-owner of J & B Construction.
For a grounded, nature-inspired vibe, try a soft sage, mossy green, or a smoky teal. If you want a bold exterior, charcoal gray, deep navy, and forest green are great choices. For a more classic look, warm beiges, creamy off-white, or taupe are appealing.
Trending in 2026 is siding that is two-tone— pairing lighter siding with darker trim (or vice versa) or mixing in accent colors (especially on shutters, doors, and gables) to highlight architectural features and give the home a personality.
Materials
Siding in 2026 is smarter and bolder, with materials built for beauty, performance, and sustainability.
Homeowners are increasingly choosing durable and sustainable materials for their siding —such as fiber cement and LP Smartside— that mimic the look and feel of wood but offer better resistance against weather and rot. “People typically look for siding that is weatherproof and low maintenance, but still looks fantastic,” Scott said.
Popular in 2026 is mixing siding materials and textures to create character and curb appeal. For example, some homeowners choose to mix lap siding with board-and-batten siding or use stone and wood accents to add visual depth and architectural interest. In addition, many modern homes are using a mix of horizontal and vertical siding.
“Using mixed materials and siding profiles will help your home look custom rather than cookie-cutter,” said Scott.
These days, homeowners have plenty of options when it comes to their home siding. Thanks to constant improvements in manufacturing, siding continues to get more attractive, durable, and energy efficient, so it’s almost impossible to make a bad choice, especially when you work with J & B Construction.
“With over 60 years of experience, you can trust our company will make your home look incredible,” Scott said.
