Have you been considering replacing the vinyl siding on your home? Is your home's vinyl siding damaged, cracked, oxidized from the sun, or just old and ugly? If so, it may be time to get it inspected by one of our exterior professionals. Old siding that's cracking, warped, or damaged can hurt your home's curb appeal, but more importantly, it can compromise your home's structural integrity.
Vinyl siding is one of the most popular types of siding in America for many reasons:
- Beautiful: Available in various colors, profiles, and realistic textures.
- Durable: Made to last an average of 20-50 years depending on how well it is maintained, cleaned, and your geographical location.
- Cost Effective: The average cost to replace your vinyl siding is around $4.50-6.50 per square foot. This is much less compared to aluminum, fiber cement, and brick.
- Requires Little Maintenance: Forget painting and caulking! Typically, the only maintenance needed is a yearly washing. Sometimes, green algae can accumulate on the north-facing, shady sides of your home. Spraying with a 50/50 bleach water solution will easily fix this.
- Energy Efficient: When properly installed, vinyl siding can help reduce your home's heating and cooling costs. Did you know that you can also buy insulated vinyl siding? This helps by further increasing your home's R-Value and saving you money on heating and cooling.
