The vinyl side of life….

The Roofing Store offers many types of siding for your home, but the most cost effective type is Vinyl. Vinyl has come a long way since the 1950’s. The most important thing to remember about vinyl siding is that it needs to be installed by professionals. The Roofing Store has been installing siding since 1982, so needless to say, they know vinyl.


The main difference between vinyl and wood is maintenance. Vinyl does not need to be painted! When installed by a professional like the Roofing Store, you will have a product that does not blow off during a wind storm, or sag after years of installation. Believe it or not, vinyl does not retain moisture like a wood product. This means no rotting like the wood, and no replacement of warped, or molded pieces. If a piece of vinyl siding does get damaged, replacement it easy, and convenient!


Vinyl siding does come in different grades, so the price will be different depending on the grade. You might consider how long you plan to stay in your home. The higher grade of vinyl will be similar to the best grade of cedar; however, the cost savings is the installation. Vinyl is less labor intensive than a wood product.


Vinyl siding adds beauty to a home, which will add to the value of the home. It is also a building product that carries an outstanding manufacturer limited lifetime warranty by most manufacturers.

All vinyl will fade after 10-15 years and, if desired, can be painted with latex paint. So, if you decide after years and years of having the same color of siding, you can either replace all of it, or simply paint the color you desire.
