Add Market Value to Your Home With Vinyl Siding Replacement
Thinking about ways to increase the value and curb appeal of your home is a smart way to get as much back on your biggest investment as you can. The next time your experienced roofing contractor makes his semi-yearly roof inspection visit, inquire about vinyl siding replacement as a way to add market value to your home.

For many homeowners, their house is the largest single investment they have made. Whether you plan to stay in your home well after you have paid off the mortgage or want to flip the property in a year or two, protecting your investment makes sense.

Add Market Value to Your Home With Vinyl Siding Replacement

Vinyl siding has significantly improved over the last few decades. Gone is the cheap, plastic-looking siding of the past. Modern vinyl siding is manufactured in a rainbow of colors and styles to mimic cedar shakes, ceramic tile, and other styles that bring out the charm and beauty of your home.

Vinyl is waterproof, rust- and corrosion-free, and easy to clean. Cracks, chips, and warping that you might have experienced with wood or aluminum siding are not a problem with vinyl. Vinyl is resistant to UV rays and will not discolor or fade on the sunniest days of summer. The freshly painted look that is the hallmark of a home well taken care of will linger indefinitely.

Vinyl siding is lightweight and easy to install, making your project affordable and easy to complete in little time. Your siding installation contractor should not only have the experience needed to replace siding but also the eye for detail needed to ensure the gutter systems, flashing and roofing materials mesh seamlessly with the siding to function without a hitch.

4 Benefits of Installing New Vinyl Siding:
1. Enhanced Aesthetics: Opting for vinyl siding replacement revitalizes your home’s exterior, instantly boosting its curb appeal and giving your property a fresh and modern look.
2. Increased Property Value: Investing in vinyl siding replacement adds significant value to your home, making it more attractive to potential buyers and potentially increasing its resale price.
3. Energy Efficiency: New vinyl siding often comes with improved insulation properties, helping regulate indoor temperatures and reducing energy consumption, which leads to lower utility bills.
4. Protection and Longevity: Quality vinyl siding acts as a shield against harsh weather conditions, protecting your home’s structure from moisture, UV rays, and potential damage, while also ensuring the long-term integrity of your property.

Choosing Vinyl vs. Fiber Cement Siding

Today’s homeowners have a wide variety of choices when it comes to choosing the material for their siding installation project. Regardless of what you select for your home’s exterior, siding installation must be done right to ensure optimum results. Hire an experienced siding contractor that specializes in siding residential homes to create the perfect look for your house.

Most Popular Siding Options

Two popular types of siding materials are vinyl and fiber cement. Both of these materials are durable and attractive, and can potentially increase the market value of your home.

According to the 2010, U.S. Census Bureau, vinyl siding is the most commonly used material on North American homes valued under $500,000. Fiber cement siding does not yet possess the long history associated with vinyl siding, but is quickly becoming a favorite among homeowners. The Portland Cement Association estimates that between 12 and 15 percent of new homes use fiber cement siding.

Choosing Vinyl vs. Fiber Cement Siding

You’ll want to consider a few key points when making the important decision between vinyl or fiber cement siding.

Cost

Both vinyl and fiber cement siding are affordable solutions to give your home a new look. Fiber cement mimics the look of natural wood, but can be less costly to install than cedar siding, natural stone or other wood materials.

Vinyl siding is an economical choice as well. In many cases, vinyl siding costs less than fiber cement due to the ease of installation. Vinyl siding goes up quickly and does not require painting, which saves you both time and money.

Design

The styles and arrays of color available in these two types of siding is wide ranging. Some homeowners may even feel overwhelmed at the choices they need to make regarding color scheme and the versatility of texture. Fiber cement is a modern material, but is designed to showcase your home with very traditional styles. Available siding shapes include half rounds, square shingles, and octagons. Vertical siding is crafted for a smooth appearance or to mimic stucco. Pre-finished and primed fiber cement cladding is the most common choice, but homeowners can also have raw materials installed and painted to their exact specifications.

Vinyl siding is also extremely versatile, with more than 300 colors from which to choose. An advantage to using vinyl siding is that once you have matched your desired color, no painting is required.

Durability & Maintenance

No matter which type of siding you choose, durability is on your side. Each of these two materials is environmentally sound, and resistant to fire, wind, rain, hail and decay. Vinyl siding is very easy to care for, needing only a cool water rinse to remain bright and insect-free. Fiber cement is a bit more labor-intensive, requiring painting every 7 to 15 years.

Installation

Consult All Roofing Solutions, your Delaware roofing and siding specialist, to install fiber cement or vinyl siding. Fiber cement cladding in particular requires specialized tools to ensure safe and proper installation so don’t try to handle such project on your own.
