Why choose Vinyl Siding?

Vinyl Siding is America’s Number One Choice in Exterior Cladding Material

Planners, developers, architects, builders and homeowners are siding with vinyl in record numbers. Why? Because today’s vinyl siding provides distinct advantages.

What are the advantages?

Beauty

While traditional pastel and earthy color options are still available, today’s vinyl siding offers a comprehensive array of darker color combinations including bold, rich tones like barn reds, hunter and sage greens, deep blues and more. Nearly 400 different colors are certified to meet the ASTM standards for vinyl siding color retention, so you can be sure the shades you select will resist major color changes in a variety of climates.

Choice

Any look — historic to contemporary — can be achieved with today’s vinyl siding. Vinyl siding has the widest array of profile offerings of any other cladding material including:

  • Horizontal and vertical panels
  • Shakes, Scallops, Shingles, Fishscales
  • Traditional lap
  • Dutch lap
  • Beaded designs in various profile widths

Today’s vinyl siding is available in a broad and ever increasing spectrum of solid and variegated new trim and accent options are also available to enhance neighborhood aesthetics.

Performance

Of course exterior cladding has to look good for today’s discerning homeowners, but it also has a vitally important job to perform – protecting a home from the elements.

With the ability to withstand high winds (certified up to 110 mph or higher) and a composition that resists heat, cold and moisture, vinyl siding retains its great looks over time.

And vinyl siding never needs paint. Ever. The only maintenance it will need is a simple wash with a soft cloth and garden hose to keep it looking great, a feature today’s strapped-for-time homeowners really appreciate!

Value

Today’s vinyl siding adds value to homes and is the building material of choice for developers, contractors, and homeowners associations. The value-added advantages of vinyl siding include its low total installed cost — lower than all other materials because vinyl siding goes up faster and doesn’t need painting.

And, homeowners who remodel recoup over 82.7 percent of the cost of installation of new vinyl siding*, therefore increasing the value of their home. *2007 Cost vs. Value Report, Remodeling Magazine

Green Building Choice

Today’s vinyl siding, the most popular choice for exterior cladding in the United States and Canada, delivers recognized environmental benefits to help make and keep homes green.

Throughout the processes of manufacturing, transportation, installation, service life and waste management, vinyl siding scores well on tough environmental measures.

What’s more, vinyl siding has the potential to contribute to achieving more points than other exterior cladding in the leading green building certification programs including the United States Green Building Council (USGBC) LEED® for New Construction and LEED® Homes Rating Systems and the draft National Green Building Standard™.
