A frame house is a type of residential structure built using a wooden frame, typically covered with siding or veneer materials that provide both aesthetic appeal and added durability.
Siding refers to materials used to protect and insulate the exterior walls of a building, typically made from wood, vinyl, aluminum, fiber cement, and other materials designed to mimic clapboards or shakes.
