2025 Exterior Trends: What’s Hot in Siding, Decks & Doors
As we move through 2025, one thing is clear: homeowners want exteriors that are as beautiful as they are functional. At Classic Remodeling, we’ve had the pleasure of working with clients across Central Maryland who are embracing new styles, smarter materials, and bolder design choices. Whether you’re considering a full remodel or a simple update, here are the exterior trends we’re seeing, and loving, this year.
🔷 1. Bold Blues in Siding
Blue siding is having its moment; and for good reason. From deep navy to slate and dusty sky tones, blue brings a fresh, modern look that still feels timeless. It pairs effortlessly with crisp white trim, warm wood accents, or sleek black windows for contrast.
Whether you’re looking to give your home a coastal charm or a more refined edge, blue siding offers versatility and curb appeal that won’t go out of style. Plus, with fade-resistant technology from brands like CertainTeed, it stays looking sharp year after year.
Classic Tip: Mix horizontal lap siding with vertical board-and-batten in the same blue family for added depth and interest.
🌿 2. Composite Decking with Natural Vibes
Gone are the days of stained wood and constant upkeep. In 2025, composite decking continues to lead the way, especially in lighter, nature-inspired tones like weathered teak, coastal gray, and warm driftwood.
Homeowners love materials from Trex, Azek, and TimberTech for their durability, slip resistance, and stunning finishes that mimic the real look of wood; without the warping, splinters, or staining.
Classic Tip: Add custom lighting, cable railings, or a two-tone border to give your deck a polished, upscale finish.
🚪 3. Statement-Making Front Doors
Your entryway is your home’s first impression—and in 2025, it’s all about bold, beautiful front doors. Think rich reds, elegant charcoal, olive green, or even stained woodgrain fiberglass with ornate glass inserts.
Paired with classic white trim or a portico for framing, your front door can completely transform your home’s façade. And with energy-efficient options from ProVia, style doesn’t have to sacrifice function.
Classic Tip: Consider upgrading hardware too—matte black or brushed brass door handles add a contemporary edge.
🌞 4. Energy Efficiency Meets Aesthetics
Homeowners aren’t just investing in looks—they’re thinking long-term. Energy-efficient siding, insulated windows, and tight-seal doors are trending across the board.
These upgrades don’t just lower energy bills—they also increase resale value and help homes feel more comfortable in Maryland’s changing seasons.
Classic Tip: Look for ENERGY STAR-rated windows and insulated vinyl or fiber cement siding for maximum performance.
🧱 5. Mix & Match Materials
More homeowners are stepping away from uniform exteriors and embracing contrast. Combining textures like stone veneer, board-and-batten siding, or metal accents adds richness and depth to any home.
Pairing warm cedar tones with charcoal grays, or blending vertical and horizontal siding patterns, creates a dynamic, custom look that’s far from cookie-cutter.
Classic Tip: Use accent materials around entryways, gables, or dormers to highlight your home’s best features.
