What are the Improvements with Vinyl Siding?

With Vinyl siding, you are getting a PVC material (polyvinyl chloride) that protects from sunlight, damage, discoloration and fading. It is a package deal, that comes with so many benefits – and not to mention – looks beautiful from the outside. Vinyl siding over the years has improved from looking like plastic, to many different texture and color options to compliment a home.

What Does it Look Like?

Vinyl Siding comes in horizontal or vertical pieces, and are meant to mimic the look and feel of real wood.

There are many different panels that vinyl siding comes in. Some of the panels are vertical, triple, double, double dutch lap and single panels. With different textures and shapes, these panels add interest to the exterior of your home.
