How New Hampshire Weather Treats Siding
Before you pick a material, look at what the New Hampshire weather does to an exterior wall over the years:
Climate regions run from 1 (cool) to 5 (hot); New Hampshire sits in region 1.
Winter joints. Repeated freezing and thawing is hard on every joint. Ask how the crew will lap seams, seal trim and keep the bottom course clear of snowy ground.
Plowed snow. Shoveled and plowed snow piles up against siding beside driveways and walks. Those walls need the toughest panels and a well-sealed bottom edge.
Ice dams. Ice at the eaves can push meltwater behind the top courses of siding. Have the contractor check the soffit, roof edge and attic ventilation while the walls are open.
Most whole-house siding jobs here happen between the spring thaw and the first hard frost. Vinyl turns brittle and hard to cut cleanly in the cold, which is why few crews install it in midwinter.

Siding Questions
Do I have to remove old siding first?
Removal costs about $2,210 (vinyl/aluminum) to $4,410 (wood) for this house. It is worth it when you suspect rot, want new insulation or the old layer is not flat.
Is HARDIE board worth the higher price?
Fiber cement ($22,140 to $31,980) wins for a long stay: it lasts longer and holds paint well. Vinyl ($12,760 to $18,420) costs less now and never needs painting.
