In an exclusive interview with Australia's Sunday Night that aired this week, the late princess's former lover James Hewitt was asked point-blank about a pesky rumor that has been circulating since the '80s â that he, not Prince Charles, is the biological father of Prince Harry.
Here's a closer look at the longevity numbers in the NAHB and InterNACHI reports: 1  Aluminum siding -- The InterNACHI report projects that aluminum siding should last for 25 to 40 years.  Brick veneer -- Both the NAHB and the InterNACHI indicate that brick is a good choice for a long lasting exterior veneer.
The length of time that your exterior paint job will last depends on the region where you live. In most climates, the paint should last five to seven years. The wood trim on the house or siding is a different story. It will start to fade and show its age within 3 years. This is due to the sun exposure.
