There are several materials used for mobile home skirting. Vinyl products are the most cost-effective but are not the most durable, so there could be maintenance costs in coming years. Hardie Board skirting is a lightweight concrete material with added durability, longevity, insulation, and a slightly higher installation cost. Metal or steel skirting products were popular in the past but have all but been replaced by Hardie Board materials. There are also vinyl or poly panels made to look like rock or stone that can be used for skirting. They are thicker and more durable than plain vinyl sheeting but cost more than basic skirting. Finally, natural stone or brick can be used to skirt your mobile home. This material provides a beautiful finish but is the most costly selection.
