Vinyl siding is low-maintenance, but requires care under extreme conditions.

Vinyl siding is normally very low-maintenance & durable, but certain environmental conditions can damage it. Vinyl can become brittle in the cold and is more prone to cracking if impacted. In the heat, vinyl becomes softer and at times can even melt if the sun is concentrated on a particular point due to sun reflection. In the wind, vinyl creates more noise than other types of siding.

Vinyl siding is a popular and affordable siding choice.

Vinyl siding comes in many different shapes and colors at an approachable price point. It installs quickly, which makes it ideal for reducing labor costs and turn around time. Since vinyl siding is so popular and it’s easily manufactured, there are vast style choices. It’s a whole lot of fun to design with. All of these factors make it one of the most frequently installed siding materials, but it’s not right for every situation. There are many different siding materials to choose from and we’d love to help you find the one that works best for you at Opal!
