Vinyl siding installation is a great alternative for homes who are looking for a more affordable option than wood. Most people think vinyl, however, has a lot of drawbacks as a siding material.
Renovation Team clears up these misconceptions below.
Vinyl Siding Is Bland
Vinyl siding options are diverse. Apart from the regular flat clapboard, vinyl also comes in Dutch lap, shakes, scallops and others. Personalize these vinyl styles with the myriad of available colors. In fact, you can even choose a wood-like texture for a more traditional design without wood’s weaknesses and cost.
Vinyl Siding Is Expensive
Vinyl siding is one of the most affordable options on the market. Vinyl siding helps you allocate more funds for other projects and services instead because of its lower cost. For example, you can have both vinyl siding and roof replacement service done at the same time instead of just the latter.
Vinyl Siding Is Not Durable
This lightweight material offers excellent resistance against the weather. Vinyl siding only requires basic maintenance, such as the occasional cleaning with water and a mild solution, to keep it in prime condition.
Vinyl Siding Is Not Recyclable
Used vinyl siding can be recycled by repurposing it for new products like food wraps, bottles, blister packs and even new siding. This is why vinyl can be one of the greenest siding materials on the market if properly recycled.
