What Should I Look For?
For today's meticulous homeowner, exterior siding serves a dual purpose; to protect the home from the elements and to make an exterior design statement. Its ability to protect the home is visible in the siding's material. Vinyl has a composition that resists heat, cold, and moisture. It also has the ability to withstand winds up to 110 mph. Looking beyond its durability, vinyl siding retains its look over time without fading and never needs painting. Simply provide periodic washings and it will look new, year after year.
Materials
PVC (polyvinyl chloride), which makes up vinyl siding, is a plastic resin, that is heated and formed into sheets. The PVC's natural shiny surface is dulled by embossing them with a textured look. The sheets are then formed into siding panel profiles while they are still hot and pliable. Additives are used to prevent ultraviolet damage and color fading.
