Vinyl House Siding: Looks Built to Last

Adding vinyl siding to your house can be much more expensive than repainting. Is the extra expense worth it? Here are some considerations.

If you have to repaint every four years, how much will you spend over the next 15-20 years? That's a reasonable lifespan for a quality certified vinyl siding job.

How much maintenance time is saved when you don't have to scrape, paint, or replace rotting boards? Maintaining vinyl siding is easy -- just spray with a hose and mild detergent to make it look like new.

Durable construction means vinyl siding resists dents and damage from hail and harsh weather.

Choose from a wide variety of colors, textures and styles to create the look and feel you want.

What Should You Look For?

One way to verify quality from vinyl siding manufacturers is to look for certification by the Vinyl Siding Institute. VSI certification means the siding meets or exceeds industry standards when tested and inspected for:

• Weathering performance
• Color
• Windload resistance
• Gloss
• Surface distortion
• Camber
• Impact resistance
• Length
• Width
• Thickness
• Heat shrinkage
• Linear expansion

What Are Your Options?

Gauge
The thicker the panel, the better, for impact and weather resistance. Thicker panels will also hang straighter and flatter against the wall to look better. Expect to find gauge sizes from an economical .040" to premium .048".

Grain
Smooth grains give a more traditional or contemporary look. More pronounced grains can give a home a more rustic appearance.

Profiles
Would you like a traditional clapboard style for your house? A dutchlap panel? The old-fashioned look of a beaded panel? Explore the different influences that different profiles can give your home.

Color
Choose from a wide variety of colors, that vinyl house siding will hold better and longer than paint.
