Vinyl Siding Myths Debunked!
If you are considering re-siding your home, you have likely done some preliminary research on the different types of materials. Many people still hesitate to choose vinyl siding due to certain myths. In this post, we intend to debunk those vinyl siding myths and give you the real truth about vinyl siding!
Myth #1: Vinyl Siding Isn’t Durable
Vinyl siding’s lightweight properties can fool some homeowners into thinking that it won’t last, or that it can’t withstand the outside elements well. The truth is, vinyl siding is certified to withstand high winds of up to 110 mph and can resist cold, heat, and moisture for years.
Myth #2: Vinyl Siding is Poor Quality
Vinyl siding is sometimes mistakenly thought of as lower in quality in comparison to the other options. You should NOT subscribe to this misconception. Today’s vinyl siding is better than ever, many sidings have fade-resistant finishes. And vinyl siding companies are putting their money where their mouth is and offering vinyl siding warranties that can range anywhere from 20 – 40 years to transferable lifetime warranties. (Remember to ask us about the warranties)
Myth #3: All Vinyl Siding Looks The Same
Many homeowners in Connecticut believe that vinyl siding will make their home look like every other house. This may have been true when vinyl siding was first used in the 1950’s; however, since then many efforts have been made in terms of both design and performance. Vinyl siding leads the way in home exterior design and can transform an outdated home into one that is beautiful and refreshed.
