5 Reasons To Consider Vinyl Siding for Your Home Remodel

If you’re like most people, you take pride in your home. You want it to be comfortable, attractive, and functional on the inside, but the outside is important, too. As real estate agents say, curb appeal makes a big difference. When it comes to changing the look of your property, nothing makes a statement quite like home siding. And chances are the majority of homes in your area have vinyl siding.

There are several reasons why vinyl is the most popular choice for exterior home finishes. Today’s vinyl siding is durable, affordable, and easy on the eyes. Modern vinyl siding can mimic the look of wood shakes, stand up to extreme wind and make a strong architectural statement. It’s also extremely energy efficient.

Still not convinced? Let’s take a look at five ways vinyl can boost your home’s value and beauty.

Vinyl Siding is Durable

According to Michael Franco at BobVila.com, today’s vinyl siding is “weatherproof, insect-proof, fade-resistant, and under normal conditions, virtually indestructible.” That’s pretty high praise. Unlike wood and other siding options, vinyl will remain worry-free for decades.

There Are Many Vinyl Siding Styles and Colors To Choose From

This is not your grandfather’s vinyl. The variety of modern vinyl siding styles and colors will pleasantly surprise you. Vinyl siding comes in a range of sizes and hues, and it can even replicate the look of cedar shakes and more expensive siding options. As House Logic puts it, “…unless you lick it, [it’s] a dead ringer for cedar.”

Vinyl Siding Is an Affordable Choice for a Home Remodel

There’s a good reason why 32 percent of U.S. homes have vinyl siding — it’s by far the most affordable home siding option. And because it can be fashioned to look like just about any siding option, it’s suitable for both new construction and upgrades to older houses. Whether you’re remodeling a home in a Victorian neighborhood or trying to bring your mid-century modern a few steps into the twenty-first century, vinyl is a great choice.

Vinyl Siding Stands Up to Extreme Weather

A growing number of homeowners are turning to vinyl because their climate makes wood or other siding options a poor choice. In California, for example, air quality eats away at exterior paint, and high winds can send cedar shakes flying straight into the ocean.

Vinyl Siding Is Low-Maintenance

Vinyl siding doesn’t just add beauty to your home — it also acts as a critical water barrier. Writing for This Old House magazine, Mark Feirer says, “Contrary to what many people expect, vinyl is actually less likely than wood to trap moisture… And because it’s hung loosely, air can move behind it.”
