Vinyl Siding – A Superb Choice

Vinyl Siding and You

Vinyl siding not only is a good economic choice, it looks great too. Many manufacturers offer a wide variety of colors that should satisfy your tastes. You can often choose from a multitude of patterns and styles. Accent trims, accessories such as sunburst patterns, fancy cut shakes, columns, posts, gingerbread, etc. are all available. There is no reason why you can't replicate the charm and character of an older home with new vinyl siding.

Often colors can be closely coordinated to produce dazzling effects. Two and three colors can be mixed and matched to set your house apart from your neighbors'. Be sure to compare the color choices from one manufacturer to another.

Warranties

Every vinyl siding product carries some type of warranty. They are all different. You need to pay particular attention to the warranty when making your purchasing decision.

Check out the warranty section very carefully. Look for information on color fade. Some manufacturers offer a much stronger warranty in this area. Some skirt the issue entirely. Choose the warranty which offers you the highest level of protection.

When looking at warranties, check out the size of the company as well. In other words, a small company that possibly produces an inferior product can offer you an unbelievable warranty. Heck, they may promise you new siding, a new car, who knows what, if you buy their siding. But, will the company be able to deliver on those promises? That is, will they still be in business in 5 to 10 years when you might need the warranty?
