Vinyl siding: Beautiful, Durable and Low-Maintenance

Both homeowners and contractors agree, that choosing between vinyl and any other type of siding is one of the most challenging tasks in exterior renovation projects. Before vinyl siding was first introduced to the market in 1950’s, most houses were covered in aluminium, but vinyl was much cheaper and lower maintenance. Modern engineering has vastly improved its durability and insulation since then, and it continues to dominate the siding market to this day. In fact, studies show that in 2015 vinyl was installed on more than 27% of new single-family homes across the U.S. That’s about 200,000 new houses covered in vinyl siding in just one year. Fiber cement siding is durable and impervious to fire, and wood siding may provide more insulation and be more aesthetically pleasing, vinyl siding is unbeatable in its low cost and ease of installation and maintenance. This type of siding protects the structure from water, wind and sun and since the paint is baked throughout the materials, it doesn’t require painting and fades much less quickly than, for example fiber cement.

Here is a list of factors that affect vinyl siding cost:

Material thickness. The thicker the materials, the more durable, fade resistant and costly they are.
Style. Plain vinyl without any other features is cheaper than textured materials.
Size and layout of your house. The larger and more intricate the structure, the more it will cost to install your siding. This is true to all types of siding.
Details. Since vinyl has to be custom cut to fit in with any corners, vents or other details on the exterior, it affects the overall price of your project.
Old siding. Some types of vinyl can be laid over old old siding while in other cases, old materials will have to be removed to ensure the quality of your project. Ask your contractor about this when they provide you with an estimate.
