Board and batten gives a home clean vertical lines and a modern farmhouse look. Exquisite Roofing & Exteriors installs it on whole homes and as an accent on gables, entries, and additions across Millersville and Anne Arundel County.
What Board and Batten Siding Is
Wide vertical boards with narrow strips (battens) covering the seams. The vertical lines make walls look taller, and the style mixes well with horizontal lap siding or stone.
Material Options
- Vinyl: the lowest-maintenance option, with many colors.
- Fiber cement: crisp shadow lines, resists rot and insects, and can be painted. See fiber cement siding.
- Natural wood: the traditional, rustic version. See cedar and wood siding.
Full House or Accent
Many Millersville homeowners use board and batten on a gable or front bump-out paired with lap siding. Others run it over the whole house. We go over the options with you during your estimate.
